"Practical Training, Realistic Phishing Simulations, and Effortless Automated Campaigns"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

I like that the training content is practical and easy to consume. The phishing simulations feel realistic without being over-the-top, and the reporting makes it easy to see trends across the organization. The automated campaigns and reminders reduce manual overhead, and the integration with our identity platform makes user provisioning straightforward. It’s also helpful that there’s a wide variety of content formats, so it doesn’t feel repetitive every cycle.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

Some of the training modules can feel generic or overly scripted, especially for more technical users. After a few cycles, the phishing simulations can become somewhat predictable unless they’re rotated carefully. The reporting is strong at a high level, but deeper customization of dashboards and exports could be improved. There’s also a bit of alert fatigue if campaigns are run too frequently.

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

KnowBe4 helps address human risk by improving user awareness around phishing, social engineering, and general security hygiene. It gives measurable insight into user behavior over time, which supports risk-based decision making and compliance reporting. The platform makes it easier to demonstrate ongoing security training efforts to leadership and auditors while also reinforcing a security-first mindset across the organization.

False Positives or Scoring Frustrations

KnowBe4 helps organizations reduce the likelihood and impact of security breaches caused by human error, while providing measurable risk reduction and compliance evidence.

"Quick Setup and Automated Training That Checks All the Compliance Boxes"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

I like that it's quick and easy to setup and I love that I can automate training to people who fail certain phishing simulations. The biggest part that I appreciate I think is that it handles sending it out to the users and bugging them to complete the training when they ignore my requests personally.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

It's hard to know how people retain it sometimes but for compliance issues it checks all the boxes.

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

Auditing purposes mostly
