Go1 vs. KnowBe4 Compliance Plus

Go1 is a great solution for SMEs looking to implement their first LMS. The cost per person is reasonable and the content available is vast. The Account Managers do a great job at working with the business to ensure a smooth launch, with loads of additional content to drive usage (email templates, schedules, etc).

We have used the phishing simulation to see which users will fall for basic phish attempts and that gives us much insight. This saves us time and allows us to focus on those vulnerable users to create custom training campaigns. We will continue using a variety of modules, videos, quizzes, and games available to level up our staff knowledge.

• The huge library and variety of courses that can be accessed from multiple different providers in one place.
• Our account manager from Go1 is always on hand to answer any questions we have or help with any tasks we have.
• It is also very easy to pull reports from and monitor learning across the board.
• I also love that I can pull the .skorm file for learning content from the site to reupload onto our internal site for compliance training.

Incentivized

• Easy to find training modules
• Modules are short enough to keep user attention span
• Material within those modules are easy to understand

• The integration from Go1 to SF can be improved with more attention to detail that can make a big impact in the operational cost of running the integration. Many information and configuration in the target system that should be available to pre-filling or can be pre-configured to allow better automated integration that is time efficient.
• The reporting can be improved and further automated; this include in an integrated scenario.

• perhaps some pre-built content packages as template starters would be helpful
• some better explanation of what features exist in which places and how they work
• content customization of what topics I want under my eyes and which I do not - to cut down on the selections ("Do not show this again" or "Hide this" or "Save as a Favorite")
• more functionality to save content topics into personal collections for later use

Our Customer Success Manager is amazingly helpful and responsive. She meets with us every month to go over new features and help us with campaigns. Also, when we email her with questions, she usually turns around an answer in a couple of hours and never longer than a day. KnowBe4 Compliance Plus has dedicated people who really take care of their customers after the sale.

It was goood. It required tech support from both sides but it was not hard

Go1 has the biggest volume of content in the most varied formats. This allows us to tailor content for accessibility and neurodiversity purposes, skillsets, job roles and interests. We chose Go1 because they don't use pushy corporate sales and use a much softer sales pitch, as the product speaks for itself. This friendly tone of marketing was a major factor in choosing them over pushier, less personal brands

Cost was the main barrier to entry for the other products we evaluated. KnowBe4 Compliance Plus was priced more competitively by a significant amount. Also, other platforms didn't offer the same breath of compliance training compared to KnowBe4 Compliance Plus. Ultimately we chose KnowBe4 Compliance Plus for the value and also the amount of compliance modules they support despite not being the most polished.

• Allowed us to reach over 2000 employees remotely and overcome access to training barriers.
• Provided easy tracking for compliance to easily document training for regulatory compliance as well as organizational certifications.
• Changed the way the organization approached training and prepared us to take on the challenges with COVID well before we knew we would need it.

• Within 1 week after releasing privacy awareness training modules to our staff, I started receiving comments and questions about our services, processes, interfaces, and policies related to privacy concerns in the course of normal project conversations - that I have NEVER before gotten at this company. That made it all worth it.
• Our users' failures with phishing (email) scams has begun to decrease significantly since we provided some phishing awareness modules. More items are being reported and less users are being misled.
