I originally came across NINJIO while researching end-user awareness training options. Their product brings a more user-friendly and relatable approach to very technical topics. Their approach is very engaging without being overwhelming to me (the support end) and to the end-user. The content is short and concise as to not lose the interest of the end-user. Their back-end reporting system gives the admin a very easy-to-read dashboard along with content tracking. Their library is voluminous and updated frequently with new and current "real world" related content. I would highly recommend their product to others looking for a very unique and engaging way to enhance your end-user awareness.
  • Content
  • Ease of use
  • Excellent back end support channel.
  • Well written
  • Informative
  • Easier way to upload new users.
  • Easier way to resend content to specific users.
  • Better transition from video content to quiz taking.
NINJIO brings a more modern and user-friendly approach to today's current threat vectors that not only applies to the workplace but also to everyday lives. Their professionally generated voice acting is spot on and even adds a level of humor to rather serious topics which I believe helps ease the mindset of the end-users and reduce their overall "fear factor". I have yet to come across any of their content or use case that hasn't applied to our environment.

  • Increased user awareness.
  • Reduced preventable events by 40%.
  • Does add to the ever growing SaaS monthly and annually expenditures.
Their support team has been very responsive to any questions and the onboarding team couldn't have been more friendly and cooperative with our rollout process. Their staff is very knowledgeable and willing to help in any way that they can. Their response times are normally within the hour, at most, the same business day.
Their back-end interface could be a little more user-friendly. Creating groups and rescheduling campaigns can be a little challenging but hoping as more is done internally that the process will start to simplify itself. I do like their monthly cadence as it helps to keep the topic(s) front and center without causing user fatigue.

Great content, with exciting plot lines, the voice acting is prime, and the animation is very catchy (we use the anime version). I recommend the Ninjio Cyber Security education for everyone; it reduced the number of security issues by more than 80% after we started the rollout for the entire company. The adoption by the end-users was fast, and we always get great feedback, especially with the Friends and Family benefit. Amazing product overall, especially if you have access to the phishing simulator.
  • Updated content and great selection of topics
  • Animation is very appealing
  • Easy management and tracking tools
  • The phishing simulator could be easier to customize
The cyber security training, paired with the phishing simulator will reduce your company's vulnerability, at the same time that it flags the localized issues, so specific groups can be targeted later on. Phishing and scamming have become less of a problem once the users were better educated on how to prevent and identify scams/phishings.

  • With Ninjio, we gained speed on internal and external communication
  • Ninjio helped our company to increase our security level
  • Ninjio helped train the users to better perform tasks in various IT devices
Support is one of the best I ever experienced across any system. Our sales rep has scheduled calls with us every quarter, where we can go through methods of implementing changes and increasing overall adoption. For any configuration and customization issues, the tech department helped seamlessly. Every iteration with support or client services has been great so far.
Ninjio has overcome my expectations, delivering a great product, easy to use, updated and interesting content, easy to manage and customize, great support, and a relationship with the account manager. I fully recommend Ninjio, for any company, especially if there is remote work involved. The phishing simulator is also very fun and a great resource for flagging security issues.
Pricing is great but, if you automate the connection of new user accounts through systems like MS Azure, keep in mind that you will have to make sure to remove service accounts since they charge by a number of users connected to it. The pricing is really good and they offer a ton of features if you are willing to spend a few extra bucks.

NINJIO The Way To Go

While our company has a robust information security training program, the once-a-year frequency was not the best way to ensure everyone had the dangers they were protecting the company against in the forefront of their minds as they went about their daily tasks. NINJIO was selected to be an 'extra' to our information security awareness training, helping us to get people talking about information security with their colleagues and to bring in an element of fun and competition into what can be often seen as a 'dry' subject matter.
  • Engages - People enjoy the videos, they are fun and interesting and they get people talking.
  • Customer Service - NINJIOs customer service is some of the most amazing I have ever experienced in any industry.
  • Simplifies - Information Security and the way breaches happen can be very complicated and technical, NINJIO manages to distill this down to easily understandable situations and ways the issue could have been avoided.
  • Great Value - NINJIO offers additional peace of mind for your information security at a very reasonable cost.
  • Reporting - I've had a few issues with reporting. Not wanting to pay extra for the API - we needed to download user data including one of the additional fields to upload to our HR system - This could not be done directly through the system and is currently being done for us by NINJIO, it solved the problem, but it would be easier I imagine if we could do it ourselves.
  • It would be great if I could take people already added to the system, put them into a group, and send out a campaign, and the results of that campaign are added to their total in the system if I choose it, instead of having to add multiple records and not having them a link in any way.
  • It would be helpful if, when a person was deleted, it would show on reports that they were now deleted.
NINJIO has worked very well in getting the basic information security message of careful consideration when using information out to what is essentially a siloed business. Information security is seen as an 'IT' thing and does not give the same level of precedence as FCA compliance. So rolling out the NINJIO videos has allowed me to reach the whole company at once in a way they can't ignore, the fact that it has also been positively received and instigates internal dialogue is also a huge advantage. I honestly can't think of a scenario where NINJIO would not be appropriate.

  • NINJIO has brought information awareness up from a once-a-year pain to a monthly excitement.
  • Information Security is now part of the daily narrative in our business, in terms of ROI this is priceless.
  • We are able to create quality metrics that feed into our board pack, helping us to quantify awareness across the company.
This is BY FAR the best part of NINJIO for me, (not that I don't like the increase in information security awareness!) the fact that I am able to manage this venture with a knowledgeable partner is just wonderful. NINJIOs customer service is exceptional, our account manager Natalie Belloiu is outstanding, she is quick to respond, always happy to help, and a lovely person too, I enjoy working with someone so professional, and committed. The introduction and training were also very good, as was the onboarding and even the sales pitch (not that I think NINJIO needs a sales pitch as no competent information security manager would say no to this!).
The emails sent out with the videos are perfect, with zero issues from a user point of view this is a simple system to use. For the admin, this is a little harder. While the concepts of the product are fairly easy to use and things like dashboards, downloading, and uploading have been carefully considered, the reporting in the background can be a little ... 'tricky' on occasion, with results not filtering when selected sometimes and screens sometimes not populating.
Value for money and a contract I had no need to change, what's not to like? We get billed monthly, which fits much better into my monthly budget reconciliation and its one of the easiest business cases I ever had to write.

We use NINJIO as part of our Cyber awareness Training requirement for our Cyber insurance. Because our employees are extremely busy throughout the day, we needed a product that can provide an enjoyable and quick way to train. NINJIO also offers us a Client Success Manager so the company doesn't have to put effort into scheduling videos. NINJIO has addressed this need to the fullest extent and we are very satisfied with the service!
  • Customer Support
  • Time Efficiency
  • Communication
  • Content
  • Onboarding
NINJIO has great content. The videos are quick, fun to watch, and the assessments are efficient and thorough. I think where NINJIO is superior is that they offer our company a Client Success Manager who takes care of us throughout the program and she has been extremely helpful in answering all of my questions and guiding me along the way.

I gave a 10/10 rating because I have a really great Client Success Manager. She has answered all my questions and guided me along the way. If I have any trouble with the platform, I just reach out to her and have a timely and thorough response. Thanks so much!!
NINJIO has an overall easy platform to use. I'm not a fan that I have to use one hub and the Dojo to access different things. The platform does lack a few things, like timestamps of training completion and a schedule of what videos are going to come. The Dojo platform is good, overall.
