"PhishER, the meeting room for members of your human firewall"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus?

It provides us with the ability to view the history of reported threats. Several of these have been used to facilitate tabletop exercises within our Incident Response Team (IRT).

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus?

PhishRIP was a great add-on to the product and was doing a lot to provide additional security to our end users. It, however, stopped working over a year ago. I requested status updates from technical support multiple times and still do not have a reason for the failure or an estimate on when the issue will be corrected.

What problems is KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are finding common attack vectors coming into our company. It aligns with spear-phishing research showing the primary targets in our company are our executives. It justifies the cost spent on protecting email. It is also a great resource for reporting the attack vectors being used against our organization.

"Working great so far and I like how the training material has been kept up-to-date."

What do you like best about KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus?

The training material is brief which is nice. I like the multiple examples of phishing emails and the exercises to spot them. And, as mentioned before, I like that the material is up-to-date and does not feel dated.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus?

The administrative console could use some improvement. I was able to setup a campaign with help but it could be a bit more intuitive. I also think the way to add single users to the system is a bit strange with an import option that requires one line of text or a one line CSV. And then the user must be edited to add their full name and manager's email/name if using the single line import. I also found the magic link for licenses to be sort of downplayed when that is most certainly required for the users to get licenses.

Recommendations to others considering KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus:

The product is worthwhile and a good way to improve security awareness in any organization.

What problems is KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are basically just raising security awareness across the board. I originally was skeptical we needed the phishing training since most of our users are software developers. But, after getting the results, I see that we still have folks who need the extra training.
