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.

Team collaboration has improved and project tracking is clearer but downtime still causes disruption
I think there are some parts of Lark that have not been translated, and sometimes there is a glitch where the product still uses Chinese words. Lark occasionally experiences downtime, and during those times, we usually use WhatsApp for communication and coordination, which can be frustrating. Regarding Lark's AI capabilities, I believe they are good in terms of governance and security. I think there is still room for improvement regarding the accuracy and reliability of Lark's AI output.

Quotes from Members

"Gophish has positively impacted my organization by increasing awareness among my employees."
"Gophish has really improved security awareness in my organization."
"Gophish has positively impacted my organization by helping my team reach our goals."
"With Gophish, I am able to work in a more appropriate way on phishing awareness, and I am also able to make employees aware in an easy and appropriate way because they see how a phishing attack works in a real way."
"Gophish has impacted my organization positively in terms of security awareness, as I have noticed fewer phishing incidents and more responses towards reporting phishing emails as specific improvements."
"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."
"Using Gophish has helped me reduce my efforts and make more requests, allowing me to conduct many more phishing attacks in a shorter period."
"Lark has positively impacted my organization by helping us reorganize the to-do work, allowing us to focus more on our tasks."
"Lark has positively impacted my organization because our team's work has become more noticeable by the management because we have a clear record of what's going on in the emails and with the work on the technical side."
"Lark has impacted my organization positively; it has been a daily driver and has been excellent."
 

Cons

"I think Gophish could be improved because it is effective for its purpose, but there are certain features that can be enhanced."
"It does not handle lists well either, so when you have a big list of email addresses or users, it crashes, perhaps in the sending of the emails or somewhere else, but it crashes."
"Regarding how Gophish can be improved, the latest update is from 2022."
"I do not really have any improvements in mind at the moment, but offering ready-made templates that we could use or examples of emails that we could directly use would be beneficial."
"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."
"When I send to more than 300 recipients, I am forced to split it into several sends because the tool doesn't behave effectively and freezes."
"I would rate it a seven. It is quite good and free software, but it needs more substance."
"I think Gophish could be improved with a user-level function, meaning if the person is strong or weak, we send more or fewer awareness emails, and rely on real attacks in order to be able to create a template by itself."
"I have not seen a return on investment at this time; I cannot share any relevant metrics such as time saved, money saved, or fewer employees needed."
"Lark can be improved by having the ability to switch between personal and team space."
"Lark occasionally experiences downtime, and during those times, we usually use WhatsApp for communication and coordination, which can be frustrating."
