Sleeping Better Now

  • March 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The results are stellar. We tried the free test, which really is free and 31% of my users fell for the simulated phishing emails. Now I run monthly tests at minimum and only on rare occasions do I have more than one user fail. The training also covers other areas such as password strength, and other ways we can be hacked and is updated and refreshed frequently.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only flaws are the occasional email template that just refuses to render the way I want it to and a very few email templates that my Barracuda spam service blocks in spite of the exceptions. The email rendering has been mitigated by the abundance of templates the KnowBe4 supplies and the blocking relates to how Barracuda deals with attachments, which I opted not to change. I just look at the users that didn't get a test email and manually fire one off.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It provides a level of training and verification which along with a written Acceptable Use Policy satisfies our auditors that we exercise due diligence in that area.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free test - use the results to illustrate your vulnerability to the army of bad actors out there. Leave a copy of "Ghost in the Wires" laying around the office.

KnowBe4

  • March 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to test or train at any time
What do you dislike about the product?
Licensing can be confusing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our previous on-line security training was boring and never changed year to year. KnowBe4's training is interesting, informative and current. While we still catch a few staff with our internal phish testing, our external (third party) tests have been clean.

Know how secure your users are and improve where needed

  • March 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The phishing testing platform is very robust, easy to use and helpful in tracking how well you users are doing with respect to security issues like Phishing. Also the large amount of training topics available to be deployed and tracked is great. I started with a baseline Phishing test and then trained my users. I use the Phish Alert tool provided by KnowBe4 which allows my users to mark incoming emails as potential Phishing emails. This alerts my team of potential breaches. Pairing this tool along with regular Phishing test I can keep my users up to speed on new Phishing techniques. I use a reward system for users that can accurately mark Phishing emails, which keeps them engaged and thinking about when that next phishing email might hit their inbox.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have been using KnowBe4 for a few years now. During the earlier days it was a bit more difficult to setup training schedules, however now the training scheduler is much better and their are more topics all the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With KnowBe4 I keep my users up to date with current security issues. KnowBe4 keeps my users alert to new Phishing techniques. KnowBe4 also gives me visibility to users that may need a little more training.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
KnowBe4 is a great growing platform that will help a company of any size to get user security under control and keep it under control.

Excellent product and great customer support

  • March 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
A user-friendly platform, helpful customer service, good reporting capacity, current/ relevant trainings and phishing templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great if the training selections included other required trainings such EEO, so that we could use Knowbe4 exclusively.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Knowbe4 has helped reduce the instances of staff clicking on links, opening attachments, or engaging with phishing emails. The training has helped staff have more knowledge of IT security. We also use the HIPAA training, which has been great.

Great Training, Great Support, Great Company

  • March 21, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy to setup the phishing campaigns. It is easy to see the results. It is easy to setup additional training for your users. We continue to see improvements. On going campaigns allow you to constantly train. So helpful for new employees that might not see your "conference room once a year seminar".
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be excellent if there was a way to hook the KnowBe4 user database into my active directory and automatically change user records. The import facility is very usable but currently required a human to keep things updated. However, this is a small price to pay for the benefits received.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have seen our "prone to phishing" rate go down each time we run through a phishing campaign / training follow up.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I am an IT staff of one. I have nearly 60 daily users. It is not possible for me to personally do all of the training that is needed. Once you have setup all of your people in the KnowBe4 system, the hardest part is done. Setup recurring phishing campaigns, keep track of the results, schedule training for the failures. It's very easy to use.

What do you like best about the product?
The product is very easy to manage via web interface. They connect easily to our environment so managing our user base is effortless. I have a dedicated customer success manager who makes herself readily available to address any problems or concerns. When I require support's assistance, their agents are all wonderful to deal with.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't think of a thing to complain about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a great education tool whether we are using their training modules or executing phishing campaigns against our users.
