KnowBe4 Reviews

Fantastic cybersecurity training platform, but missing some features

Comments: If I had to do it all over again, I wouldn't hesitate to purchase the KnowBe4 cybersecurity learning platform for our organization. But I would skip the additional learning and compliance training, and I might go for a longer term to get a more significant discount.

Pros:

The KnowBe4 training and testing platform was fairly easy to roll out across our organization, and was in place and being used within a few weeks of signing a three-year agreement. Much quicker implementation than I've seen with other software platforms. The cybersecurity training content is very good, and gives us a lot of options from in-depth long-form learning tracks to quick training videos and even distributable flyers and posters. And the training is effective! Our risk score has improved by almost 20% in just six months. Feedback from users on the platform generally and the content specifically is positive almost across the board.

Cons:

We opted for the expanded learning content including compliance training, which has been great in the sense that we can give users additional non-cybersecurity learning options, but the content is limited and the courses I've explored haven't been particularly useful. Also, making the content available on-demand (instead of assigned like the cybersecurity courses) was difficult and resulted in a few frustrated users.

A great way to teach Cyber Security

Comments: A great way to start teaching. The platform has plenty of settings for the basic admin and the more technical admins. There are content series way same actors throughout, this can give a sense of TV soap viewing, a positive for most viewers

Pros:

This a great platform for beginners and advanced users in the world of Cyber Security. Campaigns are easy to setup and rollout. You can build templates and then copy the template for each campaign throughout the whole year. The content has a mix of real live actors and animation so that keeps everyone engaged

Cons:

There is alot of settings and notification triggers, if you get the settings wrong then its easy to spam users inboxes with notifications, and this would leave the task more negative with the users

KnowBe4 is fantastic!

Comments: KnowBe4 has been a great partner for our organization to keep end users informed of potential threats.

Pros:

Ease of setup and the support from customer rep.

Cons:

I don't have any cons to using KnowBe4. The product did exactly what we needed.

Great training and simulations

Pros:

The test emails that it sends out are really good. They know how to make a bad email look pretty legitimate. The training is good, gives good reports, and it integrates with Azure.

Cons:

Takes a bit to learn how to use and manage it but still pretty user friendly for the management aspects of it.

Fantastic Product

Comments: Good, very classically not an MSP company but the products are awesome and the people are friendly.

Pros:

Award winning video production, I definitely binge some of them.

Cons:

Interface for setting up and managing MSP clients is a bit clunky. Integrations ... what are those?

Informative and up-to-date Security Awareness Tool

Comments: Overall, very positive and informative for yearly trainings

Pros:

The trainings do seem up to date yearly, though some info is the same. It is also broken up in to smaller, digestible chunks, to be taken at whatever pace you are able to do.

Cons:

Some of the material is presented in a kid-like manner, but I suppose that makes it memorable.

Easy to use

Comments: Easy to use, realistic situations involving phishing scams

Pros:

Realistic phishing emails that appeared to be legit

Cons:

Realistic phishing emails that appeared to be legit

Great tool for cyber security training

Pros:

This product offers quality education and simulations on phishing scams. It challenges employees to be cautious when clicking on links and opening attachments.

Cons:

Sometimes training is assigned to users without them being notified.

love it

Comments: overall was super helpful when first starting my job to learn about security and dos and don'ts

Pros:

ease of use and content easy to understand

Cons:

length of videos, can be time consuming, but is needing for the content. nothing bad i would say about the product

Review

Pros:

Sends weekly articles on the "Scam of the Week"

Cons:

Nothing to dislike, nice system for training new employees on phishing safety.

Tools and training to help your users understand the gravity of cybersecurity.

Pros:

The tools and resources are more than helpful in creating awareness programs for employees.

Cons:

Some of the data from tests could be more granular and give a broader picture of the threat landscape.

Super schnell bereitgestellt und alles fertig

Pros:

Es ist super, dass alles vorgefertigt ist und man trotzdem die Möglichkeit hat eigene Template/Schulungen einzustellen. Der größte Aufwand ist wohl die Schulungen selber zu erstellen. Hier kann man aus einer riesiegen Auswahl das zusammenklicken, was für einen wichtig ist und das mehrsprachtig!

Cons:

bisher ist mir nichts aufgefallen was ich negativ beanstanden könnte. Teilweise sind Schulungen nur untertitelt und nicht nachsynchronisiert aber das ist meckern auf hohem Niveau
