KnowBe4 PhishER requires less hands-on involvement from our small (but mighty) IT team. Threats are alleviated quickly without our team having to drop something important that they are working on to respond to a phishing email.

Compared to Fortinet FortiGate, KnowBe4 PhishER stands out primarily for its user-focused phishing simulation and training capabilities. While FortiGate excels in network security and firewall protection, PhishER’s strength lies in its specialized focus on email threats and …

Microsoft is more comprehensive but still allows some threats to get through. PhishER helps to weed out those that Defender does not block.
Chose KnowBe4 PhishER
I was not involved in selecting KnowB4 as our phishing solution I am not aware if we considered any other options. I know Microsoft Defender has it's own simulated phishing system but I have not researched it or used it much nor am I interested in doing that. KnowB4 Customer …
Chose KnowBe4 PhishER
We selected KnowBe4 PhishER due to its cost efficiency and integration with our existing KnowBe4 platform. These integrations we felt were very advantageous to our on-going security training program. Additionally, we felt that the cost efficiency was very much worth it …

We were comparing the two and KnowBe4 PhishER won out on both ease of implementation and price.
Chose KnowBe4 PhishER
You pretty much need the KnowBe4 Security Awareness package for PhishER to be useful. Hands down the Security Awareness package and where it has moved up with Training and testing users is fantastic. PhishER is a great additional tool for the Admin to help to manage the …

Looked at no other products. PhishER was recommended by the Diocesan Information Systems Community and our IT provider.
Chose KnowBe4 PhishER
The dashboard is user-friendly. Clears up email space in my inbox when staff can report it with the PAB. The virus total scan is fairly accurate. I have compared this with other products, and PhishER overall is much easier to use. The Sales team worked with us to get a fair …

I have previously used Infosec IQ and Mimecast for similar purposes. Infosec IQ allowed my users to report messages, but the interface was clumsy and there weren't any features to allow me to quarantine or block message from within that dashboard. Mimecast was similar, but the …

I have been able to create customized simulated phishing campaigns that are really testing our users ability to "spot the fake." That coupled with the training campaigns that are included make it much more likely that our users will be better prepared to protect our organization by being able to recognize common industry threats, and brings awareness to less common threats that are out there. I love that they have a shared folder full of relevant, recent real-world scams that we can choose from to train our user base.

  • Enhancing the automated response capabilities, such as directly initiating remediation processes or integrating with other cybersecurity tools, could further streamline the threat management process.
  • Implementing a feedback system where users can be informed about the outcome of their reported emails might encourage more proactive engagement.
  • the reporting tool is not as streamlined on mobile devices as it is on desktops. Enhancing mobile functionality would be beneficial

Its AI capability, integration with VirusTotal, PhishRIP and PhishFlip features make it totally different from other solutions. Its Phish Alert Button directly installed on users Outlook without affecting them and the reporting technique is very simple, just clicking on the Phish Alert Button and the email will be directly reported to the KnowBe4 PhishER dashboard. KnowBe4 PhishER dashboard is a very good example of centralized dashboard where you can find all things related to that reported email.
