"Intuitive to setup and maintain. Efficient and effective."

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The software just works, and its effectiveness is easily measurable. We can even take real-world phishing emails and turn them into templates for testing our employees. This is critical when training staff on what to look for regarding actual phishing emails attempting to compromise our network.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

It isn't easy to come up with anything here. We had some initial capabilities we wanted that didn't exist, but KnowBe4 does a good job of adding valuable features to this platform, and have addressed the items we desired, such as smart groups.

What problems is KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

Security awareness training focused on phishing - arguably the most dangerous cyber threat to any organization currently. Our training fail rates easily demonstrate how effective this platform can be with a little time investment.

"Great training for security awareness"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

I like that the modules are interactive and allow you to move at your own pace. The information is well-presented, clear and concise. The training provides tests of your knowledge in each area and allows you to see what you did not get correct.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The information does not seem to change very much from year to year. I think a little more variety and slightly different emphasis would make the training even better and provide a little more engagement. This is especially the case for those who have had the training previously.

What problems is KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think it provides a good refresher on security protocols and awareness. I benefit by having it reinforce my own security awareness and maybe even provide me with new information to think about.
