    KnowBe4
    I think the most important factor is that our risk has decreased significantly among staff. Our staff is well below the industry (Education) benchmark in terms of users that are "prone to phishing". We also have multiple instances over the years where employees have stopped real efforts to access data illegally or an attempt to take funds from our institution

    Terranova Security Awareness Platform may be a good start for companies that want to onboard employees in Security Awareness programs. Integration is well done and full support is accorded. Managed services are really good for what you buy. Reporting is really lacking and you cannot except more than what the platform has. No exact roadmap is presented and nor real ETA for what to expect in the future.

    Pros
    KnowBe4
    • Phish tests can be set to various difficulty levels as staff becomes more knowledgeable in catching phish emails.
    • Automated phish tests and training save a lot of admin time. The product can also test for phone and USB stick practices.
    • The phish alert button in Outlook, along with PhishER and PhishFlip allow easy managing and response to actual phishing emails.
    • The interactive training is well designed to cover all types of phishing and safe email and phone behavior.

    Cons
    KnowBe4
    • Many items in the library aren't applicable to our use case, and it's sometimes difficult to filter out what I'm looking for.
    • I don't love the training dashboard, but maybe that's just a "me" thing.
    • Setting up groups can be tedious.

    No question, KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training is a great value to our organization. Properly training our users in the proper use of email and how to be aware of possible dangerous emails is incredibly important now. Also, training users in the best practices for phone calls, as well as internet browsing can prevent data or information from being stolen or exposed. Users have even benefited when using their personal devices as a result of the trainings they have received at work.

    The training videos we have access to are high quality, and provide a wide variety. The Inside Man videos has a cult following within our organization, and has driven a much greater interest in security awareness. And KB4's willingness to negotiate pricing for us as a nonprofit has been very valuable to us as well.

    Pages load quickly, filter/sort quickly, and don't slow down or freeze. Everything is smooth and very easy to use. There are a places in the UI where you can forget how to get there, but other than that everything is great. We have had no issues using any part of the website.

    Tech prod support is great! I did have to ask for a new customer success rep, needed a more experienced person to match my 12 years of experience running Cybersec training programs. Would suggest that more matching of rep level of knowledge to client level knowledge would help.

    Implementation Rating
    KnowBe4
    The implementation went really well and KnowBe4 was there the whole time on setup to make sure things were setup correctly. The only thing we had to figure out on our own was to script users automatically being added to security groups. So that when they sync to knowBe4 from AD they are placed into the same/correct groups.

    KnowBe4 offered a significantly more favorable cost-benefit ratio compared to other solutions. Its seamless integration with our existing infrastructure—particularly Active Directory and email systems—was the most compatible with our operational and security requirements.

    Terranova Security Awareness Platform, compared to other products from the same line does very well in: 1. Managing services compared to: - KnowBE4 where managed services are very expensive and self configuring, managing is really painful - Microsoft Security, where those services are not provided but are simple to manage 2. Animated interactive modules. This option is not provided across other providers

    Return on Investment
    KnowBe4
    • There is really no way one can make all the needed trainings with in house resources anymore! The cost for this would be way way more than that of any platform!
    • There is no way to even calculate the damage a company would suffer in case of a cybersecurity breach! So the cost for the use of the KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training platform if minimal compared to that of a possible breach!
    • The cost of creating content for security awareness training is no longer realistic for a company. This is really no option, and it is in no way comparable to the cost of access to the training material available in the KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training platform. Also the training content needs to be constantly updated!
