"Simple, Powerful, Easy to Use"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

KnowBe4 has a wide suite of tools that help our company meet our compliance and training needs. The most useful module is the phishing training, which offers a comprehensive suite of templates and delivery strategies. We run automated phishing campaigns with it monthly and manual compaigns as needed. The automation aspect of the security training modules is also very helpful and easy to use.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

Many of the training modules lack details or actionable information compared to what we would like to see for certain subjects. They are also fairly repetitive accross the board, with phishing dominating most security topics.

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

Automation of security awareness training compliance, phishing training.

"I've used KnowBe4 at multiple companies and have been happy."

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

It provides me with many options that allow me to easily select areas of education for our company staff. Once it is setup it is able to run on its own allowing us to not require a full-time dedicated resource. Being a small company this is important to us and allows us to stay current on our security training while staying within a budget.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

Some of the training pieces are replaced year-over-year (which is good), but it would be nice that rather than just telling me it is expiring and have the campaign stop working, if a recommendation was made. If a training piece is dated 2023 and there is a new version of the same training dated 2024 then it would be nice if the recommendation was made so the swapping out of training would be easier/faster.

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

KnowBe4 is allowing us to provide continual security training to our employees without dedicating a full-time resource to those efforts. Prior to implementing KnowBe4 we were inconsistent at best in our training. We also perform better in our security audits.

"Very thorough and extensive. Sometimes even overwhelming."

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

KnowBe4 offers everything you need in terms of keeping your workforce's Security Awareness at par. It offers a guided path through the world of Security Awareness and gives you access to high-quality training and testing material. The suite is very well documented and their customer service is excellent as well.

I especially like the automatic creation of a yearly schedule filled with activities, based on your company profile.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The only thing that could be improved is guiding the user through the vast amounts of training materials they offer. The system does suggest that it's time for another Security Awareness training for your workforce, but then makes you do the selection of training material to include out of their huge library.

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

Keeping my workforce well-educated on Security Awareness, not only by providing one-off training but by providing a continuous program.

Providing high-quality and up-to-date training materials.

Taking away my worries about organizing, purchasing and planning security awareness training.

"Excellent"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

Before we used KnowBe4 everyone had to sit through hour long powerpoint presentations now we can complete the induction training and annual refreshers on a monthly basis in smaller sections with a more interesting subject matter that seems to resignate with our employees better.

The regular phishing tests has really embeded the need to check all emails prior to opening.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

Minimum licence levels for Compliance Plus and Phisher plus

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

Embedding security awareness and phishing testing. Freeing up time for the security team

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

PhishFlip is amazing and would like to see this continue to be enhanced.

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

We want to continue to increase security awarness to our employees, if it is through emails or other channels like SMS. Our greatest asset but also our weakest link is the human link.
