Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training Reviews & Product Details

Huntress Managed SAT is a fully managed security awareness training (SAT) solution that uses narrative-based training and realistic phishing simulations to help employees recognize and respond to real-world threats such as phishing, malware, and social engineering. Built for managed service providers (MSPs) and organizations looking to strengthen security awareness at scale, it combines automated training delivery with human-reviewed reporting and progress tracking, so organizations can measure risk reduction and identify high-risk users over time. Huntress Managed SAT reduces human-factor risk; the leading cause of successful breaches, while helping organizations meet compliance requirements. When paired with Huntress Managed EDR, ITDR, or SIEM, it extends the same 24/7 human-led security approach to the employee layer, closing the gap between technical controls and user behavior.

"All security awareness training sucks, Huntress make it suck the least"

4/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

I've worked with a number of Security Awareness Training services and they all struggle with the same fundamental problem. They fail to catch people in a state where they are receptive to learning, and instead become "a thing they have to do". Learning under duress is known to be ineffective, but what else can we do?

Huntress' use of humour and tailoring the content to the users' needs in the moment (e.g. Phishing Defense Coach) demonstrate their deep commitment to breaking this cycle and making content "land" so that it moves actually moves the needle on security awareness.

The product is easy to use and configure too, and plenty of features without making them feel overwhelming or complex. Setup is a breeze with simple integration with Microsoft and Google. Always love talking to the team as will - they are a great bunch who are genuinely committed to ensuring your success as a partner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

The biggest bugbear is that the offering still isn't fully integrated with the rest of the Huntress portal. You can SSO into it with one click from the main portal, but after that everything for SAT is in a separate pane of glass. I believe they are working on a unified experience but not sure when we'll see that. The fact it throws out separate reports is also a little annoying - having SAT on the same monthly report as the other services would be great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are an MSP primarily supporting small and micro businesses. Traditional security content just doesn't land with them - they are far too busy to spend 10min watching a boring video about why complex passwords are important. Huntress' use of animation and comedy make the content a lot more approachable and we have reasonable take-up as a result. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Huntress Security Awareness Training is a slam dunk"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

At our MSP, we want to provide great security awareness training to our clients, but we don't want to spend time curating and scheduling content. With Huntress' managed approach to SAT and proactive phishing, we set it and forget it. It's an easy integration into the client's M365 tenant. There's no messing around with DNS records for email. Everything works directly via the M365 API. You can also upload your own custom content if you need to. We count on it to protect our clients every day. Huntress partner relations and tech support is second to none. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

When Huntress sends out the emails to the users notifying them that they have training, it sends them a number to paste into the webpage to log in. That process is a bit clunky, but I guess I understand why it is done that way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Huntress SAT"

4/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

The topics are valid and very educational, it is pretty easy to track participation and where they fall on their knowledge of Cyber Security. if we include the phishing module as well it is

as an administrator of the solution i find it really easy to setup organizations i bring on within minutes. the M365 integration is super simple for anyone to hook up.

One of the best things about huntress as a whole is the support team and account managers are always available to help with any solution they provide. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

I'd like the animation to move from their animation with Children to more animation with employees and businesses I think it would really drive the point across better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

With our past solution, the content was relevant and entertaining but the trackability in the back end was very confusing and hard to understand where end users were with their participation, with Huntress it is easy to see what modules users have completed and their scores.

"Leagues above the competitors"

4/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

Out of all the SAT offerings we've tried, Huntress was by far the easiest to configure and maintain. The Campaign setup is smooth and just works.

Integrating directly into Entra ID made things very easy. Setup was super quick, and the Support team were fast to resolve any issues as they arose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

The 'report message' functionality seems a little behind. You have to create an anti-spam policy in Defender to allow an external autoforward, as well as create both a contact and a shared mailbox.

Other products supply an Add-in that you deploy via the M365 admin center and does all the work for you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before SAT, our clients had no insight into the security literacy of their users. There were no metrics on how well their users were identifying dodgy emails. There were multiple instances of users being successfully phished every week.

With SAT we now have visibility of this data, and can report to the client for their own internal processes. Phishing statistics are down estate-wide Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Huntress Security Awareness Training - Endless Value!"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

What I like most about Huntress Security Awareness Training is how it uses real-world examples to teach cybersecurity. It’s easy to understand, keeps you engaged, and provides ongoing updates to stay ahead of threats. Plus, it gives actionable insights that help you see how you're improving. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

One downside of Huntress Security Awareness Training is that it might feel a bit repetitive over time, especially for those already familiar with basic cybersecurity practices. Also, while the training is generally user-friendly, some of the content could be more interactive to keep users more engaged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

Huntress Security Awareness Training helps solve the problem of employees unknowingly falling victim to cyber threats like phishing attacks. By educating everyone on recognizing and responding to these threats, it reduces the risk of security breaches. For me, it provides peace of mind knowing that the team is better equipped to handle potential risks, ultimately strengthening our overall security posture. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Sit back and let the Huntress Team manage your SAT Solution"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

The very best thing is the hands off approach to the ongoing management of getting learners assigned content. You create a new customer account, link it with Microsoft Graph API (or other), import the users, and then the Huntress Team automatically assigns relevant training to all learners every few months. This takes the administrative burden off of the MSP. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

Overall it's very good! The only thing that could use some work has to do with phishing simulation and reporting messages. Today they have to be forwarded to an email address to report, but it would be nice if it provided its own Outlook reporting button that was consistent with Microsoft's suspicious email reporting flow.

"Very satisfied"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

How the training episodes are cohesive vs being a random mess of different training videos/formats. Training is well designed as the videos are short enough that your attention doesn't drift, and the questions between videos keep learners engaged. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

Sometimes settings are a little basic. For example, after we had several customers enrolled and setup, Huntress came out with "new user onboarding" training which is great for new users; however, when we turned that feature on it sent that training also to all existing customers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

Phishing is still the main entry point for attacks, and no matter how much security layers are out there, users still have to be trained as no set of layers block all bad emails from getting through. Along with not just email phishing, but security best practices in general such as how to make good password, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Nick Gusto, I.T. Support Specialist, was a joy to work with and very friendly & professional!"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

I really enjoyed doing their Cyber Security modules through Curricula. They were very easy to watch and quite amusing, but yet you are learning all along. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

I took a test with only 6 questions. I missed one inadvertently. My score for missing one should have given me an 83%, but I only got a 73%. It didn't make mathematical sense. I found out from Nick that each question is weighted different. I don't agree with this. It was the easiest question on the test and I missed it by mistake. They really need to change this.

"Simply the best security awareness training"

5/5

What do you like best about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

One of the faults of any security awareness training (SAT) is that it gets quickly boring and, hence, ineffective. Huntress has managed to keep the fun up while providing very relevant learning for users. What users like is the short updates on current topics that they get every month. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training?

The management interface could be more intuitive, but I am sure it will get better over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

Users are usually the last line of defense regarding cyber threats. When the hacker has managed to circumvent an organization's defense, the ability for the user to click or not on a link, or to give or not that piece of information while on the phone will mean a data breach or a problem averted.
