Overall Satisfaction with KnowBe4 Security Awareness Training
It's used by all employees in the organization to better understand online risks and be aware of steps to take in various situations. We deal with large amounts of data and numerous vendors and it teaches all employees how to protect that data and to be alert when a situation arises online
Pros
- Videos
- Simple explanations of the risks
- Guides you through how to handle the situations and risks
Cons
- Could address more about GDPR as it's becoming more common
- Could provide more examples of phishing scams because they are evolving all the time
- Branch out and include more examples of other security threats
- It has brought awareness company-wide to show employees what to be on the lookout for.
- We have not seen an increase in incidents where outsiders have tried phishing scams.

KnowBe4 Compliance Plus
Compliance Plus has some quality content that has helped our organization when it comes to security and compliance in a number of areas from data privacy, business ethics, and discrimination. We have employees in a number of different areas in the company where some of these topics may not part of their daily routines, but the trainings has helped lower the risk to our organization with a high completion rate of the trainings
Being able to provide training in the area of compliance and security all from one centralized location and platform has greatly helped us with tracking employees usage and completion of the trainings. The admins can view reports and then notify employees who are past the due dates to complete the trainings. This helps our organization stay compliant when it comes to these different areas.
I feel Compliance Plus delivers a good value for the price. The information is up to date and the topics covered such as diversity & inclusion, data privacy, data protection and business ethics are all very relevant to the various groups in our organization. Ultimately if the content provide to the employees can lower the risk of our overall company it could potentially pay for itself without having to deal with a higher level of security breaches.
I have not been directly involved in comparing the costs to other compliance training content providers. All I do know is that the content, features and what the organization is paying for KnowBe4 Compliance Plus, we feel like it's a good value for what we are getting and the number of relevant topics it covers.
