I have been using Phished for about a year for cybersecurity awareness training, and it constantly keeps me informed about new threats and data leaks that I might be exposed to. I love its intuitive interface, which makes navigating through the platform effortlessly and enhances my overall user experience. The lessons provided by Phished are impressive because they are compact and well-spaced out, allowing for a more manageable and less overwhelming learning process. The setup process was easy and completely handled by the Phished itself, which lowered the barrier for implementation and integration into my workflow. Overall, these aspects collectively contribute to a smooth and efficient training experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find it problematic that more of the lessons are not made available at the start and are instead drip-fed over the course of weeks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Phished is excellent at keeping people alert by providing straightforward, realistic phishing tests along with brief lessons. This approach makes everyone much more difficult to deceive, all without requiring much additional effort. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One drawback is that it can become somewhat tiring for employees, and it still requires a certain amount of setup and ongoing attention. It won't resolve every issue by itself unless the company remains actively involved in managing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I work as an HR specialist so phishing and cybercrime is not my area of expertise.

The software really does increase your awareness. Before, I wasn't so aware to this extent of the potential pitfalls. The content of the training courses is realistic, easy to understand and can be implemented in your work context. But the Phished Academy not only helps me to be cyber resilient at work, but also in my private life.

In addition to the training courses in the academy, you also regularly receive short articles to warn you about current phishing scams or how to better secure your personal accounts on platforms such as Facebook and LinkedIn so that your data is not used without your consent after an update.

The platform also sends phishing simulations to your mailbox. These are much more realistic and personalised than those I have seen in other training courses in the past. Because you receive these phishing emails on a regular basis, you remain constantly on your guard against phishing, unlike when you have to take a mandatory training course on the subject once a year.

Finally, you can choose from an extensive list of apps and software that you use and receive specific tips and tricks to better secure them.

In short, I would recommend the platform to everyone! For me, it's a real game changer.

For me the only downside is I can only follow a short training session every 11 days.

I wish it were sooner so I would be able to reach the gold level sooner. However, I do understand the training platform was intentionally set up in this way to make cyber resilience a daily habit. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a manageable way to keep your team up to date with the latest threats.

I hear so many great conversation happen after they have had training Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes users just click through and do not read the info. More testing and interaction to stop this maybe Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the interaction, i like how it is completed in small chunks, i like how it gets my guys talking, i like how it gets them competitive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Don't like how the scores fluctuate, don't like how some employees click a lot more than others and they don't get penalty's which leads me to think they do not actually know what a simulation is, i would like to see factual info on the national and global scores to see how we are actually doing on our score of 76.

They keep improving when it comes to training options, and the simulations are good in some cases. The platform is very automated which saves time for IT. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A lot of things are being actively developed, and that can sometimes make the product a bit buggy. In our experience, support has also been slow at times. Phishing simulations can be very hit or miss. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The training sessions show that there are sometimes other things we don't know about and that we need to focus our attention on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Aversion is a strong word, but managing the phishing tool is not always easy, as it sometimes requires a lot of tinkering on the part of the administrator. For example, the use of APIs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cybersecurity awareness platform that sets a new benchmark for human risk management. It doesn’t just simulate phishing — it empowers organizations to transform their employees into a true first line of defense. With its intelligent, automated phishing simulations, personalized learning journeys, and powerful analytics, Phished.io makes security training engaging, measurable, and effective. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some users might find the interface slightly overwhelming at first due to the wide range of available customization options. However, this minor learning curve tends to fade quickly as teams become familiar with the platform’s depth and flexibility. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Phished is not you're typical security awareness training that annoys employees with irrelevant, boring training sessions and no-brain simulations. Instead, the platform offers a holistic approach by combining phishing simulations (bi-weekly), frequent training sessions, cyber hygiene practices, threat alerts and a behavioral risk score (that tracks your progress). It's all very interactive, fun and relevant. Everything is fully automated - so no effort for our IT team and no disruptions in our workflow - just some friendly reminders to follow that 5-minute training session. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the solution - so nothing to complain about actually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the training sessions are short and useful, plus I really like the phishing simulations they send to your inbox. It is also not a one-time thing, you get training sessions about every two week, to keep your knowledge up to date/ Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I actually don't dislike anything. I would dislike it if it took a lot of time, but it doesn't. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
