Kaspersky Lab
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.

Cons
Kaspersky Lab
  • 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.

Sophos
  • It should be easier to follow up with a user when they haven't completed training.
  • More options for reporting would be nice.
  • Better choice of users as all emails have been imported (aliases, dist. list. etc) taking up licenses.

Usability
Kaspersky Lab
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.

Sophos
It is easy to use and setup. You can schedule the Phish email test to be
sent out in the future or right away. You can also send to all users in
your list as well as stagger so all users do not get the email at the
same time and tell each other there is a test going on

Support is solid but not spectacular. While I haven't used support for Phish Threat specifically, this is a general rating for Sophos' support across the board. It could be easier to find the FAQ or other information I need, but when I've needed to reach out to support they've been good to work with.

Alternatives Considered
Kaspersky Lab
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.

Return on Investment
Kaspersky Lab
  • I can not rate the ROI
  • For workers is pretty useful
  • I assume they wil get statistics on how it's been used, so I assume it has good perfomance

Sophos
  • ROI seems to be there though I have no direct stats.
  • Positively impacts my web-browsing experience. As an Account Executive, it enables me to do my company research quickly without engaging with any bad actors.
  • It runs in the background so it never impedes my workflows.
