While Pistachio excels in many areas, the lack of customization for reports and simulations might be a limitation for some users. However, for our needs, this hasn't posed a significant issue. We value the straightforwardness and automated approach, but organizations requiring tailored reporting might find this aspect less appealing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's easy to implement, and easy to engage with. Random security related questions delivered to your inbox, no platforms to log in to. Phishing simulations are automated and are relevant, which provides a better level of engagement.
Customer support from Pistachio is excellent. The overall experience with Pistachio has been excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is nothing to dislike about Pistachio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pistachio delivers a very easy to implement fully selfconstaining cyber security training and control solution, that in an effective but not annoying maner tests and trains your organization to better recognize and block cyber attacks.
Basically this is done through emails and SMS messages, added an extra "report phishing" button in Outlook and lastly an admin overview and reporting webpage.
Allthough almost self explanatory, Pistachio still delivers next to none Customer Support and perfect respond time if you need help, and all in all this is an absolutely top shelf standardized solution for something every organization needs, and not to forget, at a very reasonable prize.

Add-ons in Outlook is always annoying, but mainly because Outlook is not add-on-friendly, so Pistachio do include this, BUT although still an add-on then at least one of the best ones I have worked with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Clear overview of what types of phishing people are falling for
Loads of different reports to feed up the ladder to reflect progress company wide
No finger pointing, we can all make mistakes and click a link we are not supposed to, this teaches us to be more vigilant and highlights that we all need a critical eye before clicking anything Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I would like a little more options in the admin panel so that I could be alerted is x user failed the phishing x times for example. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of setting up the Application was amazing, just a few User groups in Entra ID, a click here, a click there and voila, you are done! Works as promised and provides a lot of insight to our end users, the reporting part of Pistachio is very detailed as well.
I highly suggest giving Pistachio a try, I'm sure it will amaze you as it did us ! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Nothing to complain, so far, so good!
Actually, one thing, not sure what voodoo magic Pistachio is doing, but sometimes it works too well! Even admins are fooled by their "Hard" phishing simulations, which at times can be frustrating :D Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
You sync your Entra AD and it's done. The tool does everything, so there is no additional effort for the internal IT.
The hard phishing simulations with specific landing pages, based on the users profile and apps are really though to recognize.
New features are added regularly.
Implementation and support from the Pistachio team was amazing, shout out to Romy!
We onboarded all global users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In the beginning, it was a bit strange that as an admin we cannot configure anything. But we quickly learned to enjoy this fact.
If I could wish for one thing it would be language support for Japan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pistachio has transformed our phishing simulations and training programme from a manual, resource-heavy process into a fully automated one. It’s easy to set up and simple to pull reports—no human interaction is needed now; it runs itself.
It's also a huge bonus that everyone we've spoken to from Pistachio has been excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There’s very little to dislike about Pistachio.
If we have any problems or feature requests, we report and quickly hear back. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Requires minimal effort to set up, and it solves a big pain of running phishing and other cybersecurity simulations. Each user gets personalized phishing tests that simulate real attacks. The backend reporting interface is also really intuitive and good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not much really, the product does exactly what it says on the tin. Interested to further product development. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Very easy to setup and get a security awareness program operating across a business. The system integrates easily into Microsoft Entra ID.
The dashboards quickly populate with actionable data which can be used to address risk promptly.
The direct and easy to consume training scenarios are a significant improvement on other providers training schemes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There is not much to dislike about Pistachio. It would be good to be able to amend branding and further customise reports in future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Connect Microsoft 365 and be ready to go immediately. Pistachio is very easy to implement.
- Integrates really well in general with Microsoft 365. Modern, seamless and integrated is how we want our IT infrastructure to be and Pistachio fits right in.
- Super easy to use for admins.
- The cybersecurity training runs completely on autopilot.
- Pistachio has been successful at making our employees considerably more aware and alert of phishing attempts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- A lack of customization options for reports and for security training. Reporting in Pistachio has gotten better over time (you can now download .csv files for instance), but it could still be improved further with little things such as custom timeframes for the Management Report or being able to select multiple departments (instead of all or one).
- Users are not flagged as "not active" in the platform if they don't complete training, likewise users who are active, report phishes and are exemplary are not highlighted in any way.
- We're not able to include training or guidelines that are more specific to our organisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Quick and easy implementation, does not require maintenance. Support is quick and very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There could be more reports, for example lists of users that tend to ignore training. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
