LMS is a more appropriate choice to be used if the organization is large and has multiple verticals where the trainings differ to a great etent from vertical to another vertical. However if the company is a small scale org with limited hierarchy, any open source portal is enough to serve the purpose.

Kaspersky Security Awareness is recommended for companies that need to provide cybersecurity training to many users. It is easy to manage and the features are intuitive to users.I think it is suitable for most scenarios, as new features are implemented every six months and they have a portal where customers can suggest new features.

  • I wish we could attach a custom file to the phishing
  • I wish there was a way to edit the return screen when a user clicks on the phishing.
  • I would like there to be an integration with Google Workspace, to add a feature to Gmail, for the user to report as phishing, like there is for 365.

The platform gains new features and its UI is always being updated, the user's training and phishing history is a differentiator. Filters make it much easier to search for users, and we can add new fields to include different sectors and business units.

Alternatives Considered
Cofense
Cofense LMS works well at our environment due to it well know security awareness training without any complications. Ease to get support documentations & end users feedback. While in MetaCompliance Support & documentation was not that easy for end users.

Its perfomance is way better than other competitors. I can not compar in terms of price. Platform includes various training courses to protect employees from
cybercrime. Topics include e-mail and phishing, web surfing, passwords,
social networks, confidential and personal data. With the awareness platform employees train at their own pace and level,
with the aim of achieving the desired learning level that matches their
risk profile.
