SANS Security Awareness Pros and Cons

SANS modules are easy to search for, preview, and download to be used in our own LMS. I particularly appreciate the different versions of material covered so I can select the best format for my audience and use different versions of the same material for review and reinforcement trainings.

It would be nice to be able to download the modules directly from the website without a ticket and I would love to see more robust multilingual support. Most if not all content I've used was at least subtitled, but I would prefer to be able to provide my multi-lingual company with audio in their preferred language every time.

We have been using the SANS Security Awareness training modules for our employees in three countries, in two languages, for more than two years.

I can't tell you how relieved I was when, after attempting to source SCORM-based, high quality internet security awareness elearning modules that we could host on our Learning Management System (LMS), I found SANS. I wasn't able to find anything that met our needs, so making a decision to go with SANS was easy.

I love the way we can mix and match the modules based on our learner's needs. Having different learning approaches to choose between is great, especially when it comes time to do doing refresher training.

I have found the SANS team to be first class in learning about our needs, being responsive to our requests and offering advice.

The fact the SANS Institute stays ahead of new threats and is constantly developing new content means that I anticipate a continued long lasting partnership. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As this review site requires me to make a statement about what I find least helpful about SANS, I will say cost. Of course, we want to make best use of our resources. But, to be fair, SANS has been more than accommodating when tailoring a solution to meet our needs, so I can’t criticize for them here. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
