Hands-on cloud labs have transformed my training and save hours on every learning project
The best features CloudLabs offers, in my opinion, include being cloud-based and accessible from anywhere, which eliminates the need for local installation. It is cost-effective, and unlike other training platforms that focus solely on teaching, CloudLabs provides hands-on learning in a realistic environment that is easy for anyone to understand. Additionally, it has progress tracking for monitoring my completion and assignments that are designed as small tests after modules, which are optional. The hands-on learning feature in CloudLabs is exceptional compared to other platforms where learning is primarily theoretical, with trainers explaining concepts. CloudLabs provides labs integrated with GCP, AWS, and Microsoft Azure, allowing users to create their own work in a cloud environment without needing local installation. For example, I created multiple agents that interacted with each other all within the cloud environment. CloudLabs has positively impacted my organization by allowing everyone to get hands-on training. Without CloudLabs, we could only do training without practical experience. Now, I gain hands-on experience without significant installations on my systems, enhancing the knowledge of my teammates and everyone in my organization. It has also reduced hardware costs, which is a beneficial aspect.

Phishing awareness campaigns have improved training impact but still need smarter automation
I think Gophish could be improved with more automation, for instance. It is great that you can create templates, schedule them, and do everything you want in Gophish, but it would be nice to have a small integrated AI model with which you could create email templates and phishing templates. It would be nice if Gophish implemented artificial intelligence. I wish Gophish could provide more support and be more advanced and that they continue developing it because it seems that Gophish does not get many updates, and I think they need to implement more features. It is great because it is free, but it needs more features. It would be cool if there was an artificial intelligence model that could create phishing campaigns or templates or email templates for you integrated within Gophish. I would rate it a seven. It is quite good and free software, but it needs more substance. It also depends on the number of clients a company has; it may be necessary to launch Gophish in a staggered way, which I also think is a drawback Gophish has. The issue is that if there are many people being targeted, for example, 5,000 employees in a company and you send 5,000, it may be that sending so many messages gets blocked by the security systems companies have. I think that Gophish could also improve the message sending flows. I gave it a seven because there are things to improve and it is not perfect. As I said before, it would be nice if templates could be created with AI, integrated into Gophish using an API with Gemini or ChatGPT or whichever, but the point is that it would be nice if the sending flows at large scale were better managed. When you send a phishing campaign to 5,000 people, you have to send it in sections in a staggered way, for example: to these 5,000 people it is going to be sent between eight in the morning and four in the afternoon. If you send them all at once, the phishing may get blocked and then the campaign has no effect. I would like it if Gophish implemented more improvements because they are needed, as it is kind of a bit stagnant. I hope that in the future they add more improvements including creating personalized templates with artificial intelligence and improving the message sending flows.

"Gophish is a good structure and a good technological innovation that deserves to be studied and much better known by the world because not everyone knows Gophish."
"Gophish has positively impacted my organization by making it very easy to set up and start phishing campaigns."
"Gophish is stable and very reliable, and it has never let us down."
"Gophish has had a positive impact on my organization, as I noticed that since I used Gophish for the benefit of several clients, the maturity level of my clients was increasing."

Cons

"CloudLabs can be improved by reducing its dependency on internet connectivity, which is currently a significant issue, and also by addressing the pricing structure, as costs per visit may become expensive for high-volume labs."
"CloudLabs is perfect for me, and I have no suggestions for improvement."
"However, there are areas where CloudLabs can be improved. In some labs, the instructions are not very clear, which can be confusing at times."
"While I mentioned that one of the best features of Gophish is its reporting and analytics capabilities, I believe it requires more focus to become even better."
"Gophish can be improved by adding more languages and maybe a web version for it, a SaaS platform."
"Currently, we do not think Gophish requires much improvement other than a better graphical user interface."
"The customer support needs improvement."
"The feature of actually taking the website's source code might be something which is not so ethical, because you're copying from the main website even though you're learning."
"Gophish is stable, but I find KnowBe4 to be better."
"I would rate it a seven. It is quite good and free software, but it needs more substance."
"Although the tool is very good, I think there could be some improvements, especially when it comes to leveraging AI for testing and also when it comes to the expansion beyond email phishing."
