"KnowBe4 is great!"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

KnowBe4 is an excellent and handy tool in our continual educational push about cyber security threats. I find the training to be an excellent source of knowledge for our users.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

I can honestly say that I do not have any significant downsides to using KnowBe4. One downside is on the admin end for resetting a user's password. I want to reset their password for their training inside the admin side of KnowBe4, instead of sending them an email.

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

The KnowBe4 training educates our end users about how people will use phishing and other social engineering methods to try and defraud them. I have been informed on multiple occasions that the knowledge they have learned from the training is also useful for their personal web use.

Outside of the training, which is fantastic, it complies with our insurance carrier's requirements for on-line phishing training.

"The KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training are Awesome!"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

The Inside man videos are my favorite part of the KnowBe4 Security Awareness training. Those are immensely helpful and make users engaged and teach them at the same time.

I honestly don't dislike anything about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training. The videos and material that KnowBe provides is beneficial, and users need to be educated.

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

The problem in my line of work is that users are always opening baited emails before clicking on the bait. After they click on the trick, it is now too late. Users need to be aware of phishing emails.

"KnowBe4 and K-12 Education"

What do you like best about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

We like that Knowbe4 is current with their pieces of training, and we can train our employees on the current issues going on in the world today. We have looked at other training platforms and KnowBe4 seems to work best for our organization.

What do you dislike about KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training?

I don't feel like anything is missing with KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training. We use all aspects of their training material. Right now, I do not see where they need to improve.

Recommendations to others considering KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training:

I would recommend integrating with an Active Directory account if you can. It makes things easier. Have a dedicated person to oversee and manage the KnowBe4 platform for your organization. This will help ensure that the pieces of training and requirements are achieved. We use the Security Awareness part of KnowBe4, and we have also entered our organization's compliance agreements into the system that all employees have to view and agree to upon employment. This is an annual event that we go through at the beginning of each school year, and our employees are aware that it is coming. At first, we had where our employees could leave comments after completing their pieces of training but have since turned those off because you cannot make everyone happy and it just turned into a way for them to complain about training. We as an organization decided to turn this off because it would be required regardless.

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

The biggest issue we see in our organization is making sure our users understand the red flags regarding phishing emails. We can train our users on what to look for, and this helps with our organization falling victim to cybercrime.
