Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training Reviews & Product Details

Most security training I've seen is either boring or overdone, but Huntress' offering is funny, informative, and just the right length. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the scrolling of the page is a little wonky, but nothing to write home about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The episodes and content use storytelling and set up characters (DeeDee that little bugger) that have personality. The team clearly tried hard to make the content digestible and not boring. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The dashboard can take a moment to get a grip on. Having magic codes users had to copy-paste was kind of clunky, but I don't think that's the default option anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I like most about Huntress SAT is the fun Monthly content. They make a boring topic, Security, fun and easy to follow. They have a couple characters they commonly use to teach about different types of security threats that are often end users are often confronted with in everyday work.

There are a few hoops to go through with setup to Whitelist domains/servers, but that is the case with any type of product like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Huntress Security Awareness Training is honestly just how simple it is. Anyone with any level of skill can follow along and there is just enough challenge to the person following along with the training slides/videos that it can be informative and keep them involved along the process. The setup of the SAT was also very easy and Huntress support is always very prompt and able to provide well structured-useful answers to anything you may need.

The more that I have used and participated in the SAT training, the more I appreciate the simplistic and yet still engaging methodology behind how the team has built this service. The in-built phishing emails to test you and your clients are crafty enough to require you to do a double-take, especially if you haven't had your first coffee yet! I think that is the closest thing I have to a dislike about this service! :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how it engages users. From an admin standpoint it's ease of use and implementation stood out to me. You're able to choose from a wide selection of content that gets updated often. We opt for quarterly trainings, every 3 months, alongside the provided monthly trainings to keep users on their toes. The phishing exercises are very easy to integrate as well and if we ever run into an issue (hardly ever), their support team is always quick to respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I would say I dislike about Huntress is how limited the notification system is. I've found that if you need to notify more than 10 users about a task it can be tedious but not hard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fully managed, set and forget configuration. It just works.

Reporting every month without the hassle of doing it ourselves. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Comical style does not suite all clientele. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate the engaging story plots incorporated into the security training sessions. These narratives make the material much easier to grasp and add an element of fun to the learning process. Additionally, the trainings are designed with user-friendliness in mind, ensuring that participants can easily navigate the content and gain valuable knowledge without feeling overwhelmed.

There are currently no downsides to the security trainings I have encountered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easy to do! Easy to work and love it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing, all is amazing and working great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Onboarding was an absolute breeze and we still get replies to our emails ASAP even though they already had our money. Contacting support is easy. Integration took about 10 minutes and setting up the GMail rules was well documented and easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The managed SAT phishing emails are a little bit "personal account" focused. My staff doesn't use their work email in a way that the phishing email is likely to catch them. It means that we can't really ever just turn on the managed SAT & Phishing services. It would be great if you could enter a "competency level" to make the lessons and tests more relevant to our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Huntress SAT is not only a fun animated series of training and learning exercises, but it is also real world usage. DeeDee, the animated little girl hacker is a cute and innovative way to keep user (known as learners) interested in the core training material. However, it also allows you to use the phishing tests to run simulations to see how cautious your learners are and use these phishing simulations as training tools. There are tons of preset phishing or you can design your own. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only real drawback to Huntress SAT is in the fact that I wish there were more targeted phishing tests. Since the company is worldwide, they cater to a lot of different clientele, many of which are outside the US, so many of the tests aren't relevant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
