"Convenient integration of user training and attack simulation"

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

Routing users directly from clicking an untrustworthy link to training explaining what they should have been looking out for is a great idea and already seems to be improving habits.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus?

The Phish Alert Button seems much more worthwhile for KB4 than for me. It would be a big improvement if I could also forward user-reported messages to my mail filter.

There are already several types of attack that don't have a software component and more every day; a more savvy userbase is a better defense for scams than a programmed filter can ever get to be.

There isn't much to dislike about PhishER. There is always room for improvement, and I suppose the user interface could be a little more intuitive and cleaner, but as far as functionality goes it is very effective.

Sorting through spam and phishing attempts.

"PhishER"

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

The Phish Alert Button gives our users a simple, easy and concise way to submit suspicious emails. The machine learning review of the emails frees up our small team to work on other issues. PhishER's machine learning sends a response quickly (in most instances), which provides a positive feedback loop for our users to keep submitting emails.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus?

I dislike the ViruaTotal integration is not included with the subscription. With the buying power of KnowBe4 I would hope they could have secured a deal with VirusTotal to gain access to their system that would not affect the price of PhishER to a large degree.

Recommendations to others considering KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus:

Tailor the email responses to your users so they sound like they are coming from you. Be relentless in forcing submissions through the Phish Alert Button.

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

With the rise of ransomware and phishing in general, a way for users to report suspicious emails and then have them reviewed quickly and effectively without human eyes was necessary. This solution has helped tremendously.
