    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.

    The information is timely and allows us to keep our employees apprised of the risks that are out there - before they become an issue for us. The system has allowed us to stay in front of current threats and provide testing of our users to determine that they are indeed not falling for phishing attempts.

    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.

    The two programs are comparable - we chose ThreatAdvice Educate because of their superior support staff - as well as tie ins to other services that they offer that compliment this. The system keeps our users current and support is easily available for any issues that arise. We have been happy with that choice.
