"KnowBe4 has saved our bacon"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The training modules are not lengthy, so it is easy to keep employees "tuned up" without taking them away from other tasks for extended training.

I'm also pleased with being able to hammer my office with assorted phishing campaigns year round. It is good to see how seldom they have taken the bait, something like three times in three years. Looks like the training is working!

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

1. Setting up training sessions, seems I always have to relearn all the various tabs and possibilities. However my rep has been very helpful with this.

2. Not able to include family members in the program since they do not use our firm's domain name. My wife NEEDS to be phished.

3. WORSE: having to figure out how to create and upload a screenshot into this survey!

Recommendations to others considering KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training:

Set up a perpetual phishing campaign.

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

Any number of times employees have told me "I almost clicked on that", then their training kicked in and they avoided opening evil emails.

"Great support and communication"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

KnowBe4 provides a great product at a very reasonable price point. Their team is great at sending frequent communication and following up to help make sure you are making the most of their product and actively test and monitor your organizations security. The amount of community created content is also fantastic! If knowBe4 doesn't have a template or poster that you are looking for, chances are that someone in the community has created something that you can add and use at no additional cost.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The only negative I can think of is that they may be a bit excessive with the number of emails that are sent.

Recommendations to others considering KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training:

KnowBe4 is a great platform that is very affordable, especially for small organizations. I have looked at similar systems in use by larger organizations that I work with, and they cost more and aren't as easy to set-up, use, and administer. KnowBe4's support team is very friendly and very proactive in contacting customers to make sure they are aware of everything the program has to offer and help you implement it in a way that uses their established best practices. If you have any difficulties or questions, they are available to walk you through the site and help in any way they can. Send them an email or give them a call if you have any problems!

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

KnowBe4 has provided me insight into who in my organization is most at risk of falling victim to cyber threats, phishing, and social engineering, as well as providing real world examples of how these threats can impact an organization and how I can work to stop them. Their training programs have also been fantastic and have prompted a lot more conversations around the office about security and a general heightened awareness of the different scams and threats that are out there.
