training dealerships to know what a scam email looks like and teach them to not click on links. it is working well for my accounts. it has increased and the dealerships are happy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Risen of PhishingBox

Kassidy, our reporting system does track opens and clicks. Give us a shout and our support team can walk you through where that information is located if it's not showing up on your account. You can filter by failure within the campaign creator for a specific campaign and send a follow-up campaign to only those who failed. Our support team can also walk you through that.

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

Premade templates for phishing tests are very helpful, as is the ability to sync user accounts with active directory. Campaigns are easy to create and the repoprting is clear and easy to digest. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

The outlook/exchange addin that is supposed to allow end users to report phishing emails via a button does not seem to work properly. We were unable to get it installed in 64bit outlook and phishing box support was unable to determine why we were expericing errors. This would have been a very helpful feature so it is very disappointing that it is not functional. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhishingBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Phishingbox helps with end user phishing awareness and phishing siumlation tests. The training modules are helpful for users that fail the tests and allows us to improve organization security awareness. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Setting up the backend in exchange to allow the phishing emails to not go to spam or junk. This is really a microsoft issue but I feel it could be a little more guided with phishing box. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

In my current position I am responsible for running our monthly phishing testing and Phishingbox has been an awesome tool in user awareness training. With the ease of use in creating, distributin and training I couldn't reccomend Phishingbox any higher. We have the service connected to Google Workspace for group creation and tracking of success/failure, we could definitely be taking this even further and use it for training targeting but currently run a training template on every fail. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

Sometimes the UI can be a little clunky but overall it wouldn't deter me from using the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhishingBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

We currently use this to train our employees with varying difficulties of phishing scenarios. We like to run multiple templates per month from easy to real world difficulty. We have seen an increase in our user's awareness and have seen much better fail rates compared to our first few months with the service. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Risen of PhishingBox

Thank you for the feedback. Our development team is always looking to optimize the user experience.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

I wish it had addtional levels of training based on the links that the user might click. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

I like that PhishingBox makes it easy to get deep insights into the testing results. Being able to drill into exactly which users were phished and even the emails they opened enabled us to create increasingly nuanced phishing campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

I thought it was fairly hard to start from scratch. I wanted to import a large number of email templates into a campaign, but it seemed like the bulk operations I wanted were unavailable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhishingBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

PhishingBox helps us train our users to be more aware of security practices and the dangers of phishing. We are a health technology company and so we have an elevated need for information security. PhishingBox helps us provide that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Alex Risen of PhishingBox

Hi Kevin! Thank you for your feedback. We're always looking for user experience input to continue to improve the platform and make it as easy as possible to train teams.

What do you like best about PhishingBox?

Custmer service has been very helpful with setup and implementation, as well as ongoing support if you have questions or issues on setting up a new campaign. Lots of options for email and phishihng campaigns compared to competitors. Also large variety of training for IT compliance or failed "clicks" on campaigns. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about PhishingBox?

GUI can sometimes get a little hard to work through. Some items might get lost in the suace, but thankfully their KB systems helps work through these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is PhishingBox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our company did not have an IT training database, as well as active cyber security training/campaign system. This will help our users get better at detecting scams and phishing attemps, and how to report them and resolve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
