Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training Reviews

My main use case for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is employee security awareness training, especially phishing awareness, simulated phishing campaigns, and helping users recognize common social engineering threats.

For example, I used Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to run simulated phishing campaigns with realistic email scenarios. I tracked which users interacted with the emails and used the results to identify users who needed additional awareness training.

I also find Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training useful for reinforcing phishing awareness through regular training and simulations. It helps me measure user awareness and focus additional training on areas where users may be likely to fall for social engineering attempts.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has helped improve overall phishing awareness across the organization. The simulated campaigns make employees more aware of common social engineering techniques, and the reporting helps me identify areas where I need to provide additional training.

I have seen improvement in user awareness over time with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. The number of users interacting with simulated phishing emails has gradually decreased, and users have become more likely to recognize and report suspicious emails instead of clicking on them.

The memorable episodes in Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training have a positive impact because they make security topics easier for users to remember. For example, short and realistic phishing scenarios help users recognize suspicious links, unexpected attachments, and social engineering tactics. Over time, I have seen users become more cautious and more likely to report suspicious emails.

The best features Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training offers for me are the phishing simulations, security awareness training content, easy campaign management, and reporting. The reporting is especially useful because it helps me track user behavior and identify areas where additional training is needed.

The reports from Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training are fairly easy to generate and understand, so sharing them with the team or leadership is straightforward. I use the results to identify common gaps and adjust future phishing simulations and awareness training accordingly.

Overall, Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is easy to use and provides a good combination of training, phishing simulations, and reporting. It gives me a simple way to improve user awareness without adding much administrative effort.

Regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, the AI output has been generally accurate and reliable for supporting security awareness training. I still prefer to review the AI-generated content before using it in a training or phishing campaign, but overall, it provides useful and relevant results.

I use the managed training feature in Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. It helps keep training consistent and up to date by providing regular awareness content and covering current phishing and social engineering techniques. It also reduces the effort needed to manage training manually.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is quite effective because the training is provided close to the risky behavior, which makes the lesson more relevant. For example, if a user clicks a simulated phishing link, they can immediately receive guidance explaining the warning signs and why they should have checked before clicking.

I use Huntress's lightweight LMS. My experience with creating and uploading custom training is positive. The process is straightforward, and it is easy to add organization-specific content when I need to address particular security awareness topics.

It is fairly easy to assign behavior-based tasks targeting risky behaviors in my organization with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. I can target specific risky behaviors and assign relevant training without much manual effort. The main thing is making sure the tasks are relevant to the user's behavior, so the training is effective.

I have used the Threat Simulator feature in Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. It reinforces learning by giving users realistic examples of threats such as phishing and social engineering scenarios. It helps users understand the risks in a practical way and encourages them to be more cautious with suspicious emails and links.

One area for improvement for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training would be adding more variety and customization into phishing simulations and training content. More advanced reporting and deeper user-level insights would also be helpful for identifying specific training gaps.

Another improvement for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training would be more frequent updates to the training content to cover newer social engineering techniques and emerging phishing trends. More flexibility in customizing campaigns for different teams would also make the platform more useful.

I have been using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for 1.8 years.

I would say Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is stable. I have had a consistent experience with the platform, and the training, phishing simulations, and reporting have generally worked reliably without major issues.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training scales well because I can manage training and phishing campaigns for a larger number of users from one platform. It is easy to add users, assign training, and track the results without significantly increasing the administrative effort.

The customer support for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training was good overall. Responses were timely, and the support team was helpful when I had questions or needed assistance with the platform. I would rate the customer support for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training a 9 out of 10.

I have previously used another security awareness training solution, but I switched to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training because I wanted a simpler platform with better phishing simulations, easier campaign management, and more practical reporting.

I have seen a positive return on investment with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. The main benefit has been improved user awareness and fewer users interacting with simulated phishing emails over time. I also save time by having training, simulations, and reporting in one platform rather than managing them separately.

Overall, the pricing and licensing for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training were reasonable for the features provided. The setup cost was manageable, and the licensing model was straightforward. I also found the overall cost justified, considering the phishing simulations, training content, and reporting capabilities.

I evaluated a few other security awareness platforms including KnowBe4 and Proofpoint Security Awareness before choosing Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. I mainly compared them based on phishing simulations, training content, reporting, ease of use, and overall cost.

I would rate Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training a 9 out of 10 overall.

I rate it this highly because Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is easy to use, the phishing simulations are practical, and the reporting makes it easy to track user awareness. It also helps identify training gaps and improve security awareness over time.

Regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, I think the AI capabilities are useful, but governance and security are important considerations. From my experience, I would look for clear data handling policies, transparency around how AI is used, and strong controls over user and organizational data. Overall, I am comfortable with the approach, but I would like to see continued transparency as the AI features evolve.

I would recommend Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to organizations looking for a simple and practical security awareness platform. I would suggest evaluating the phishing simulations, reporting, and training content against specific requirements. It is especially useful if you want to improve phishing awareness without adding too much administrative effort.

My main use case for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is providing security awareness training to a few small to medium enterprises who needed some coverage against social engineering attacks and to raise user responsibility when it comes to interfacing with emails and visiting certain websites, covering the areas in which an EDR or an ITDR couldn't cover.

I can give you a quick specific example of how I use Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training with my clients or internally; we deploy it internally as well, as we are an IT company. It is really important that we ourselves and our engineers can spot the difference, because just because we are IT literate does not mean that we can always spot the difference. Or we can spot the difference, but the hesitation to click on something and just check what comes in matters. We have had customers experience significant breaches where they sent a lot of money or information or had loss of business due to these types of attacks. Avoiding that is where I would say we have had the most impact, seeing a reduction in those types of incidents happening.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has positively impacted my organization as we can see a decline from those clients with incidents regarding cybersecurity. There are a lot fewer tickets about suspicious emails, and a lot more of a positive understanding from users about what an attack looks like. In terms of tools for us, it helps our relationship with customers. We can send them reports that are good criteria and good information we can give them to show how we are protecting them. This adds value there.

Using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training alongside the other Huntress products, ITDR and EDR, is beneficial. It is a good product that is easy to deploy alongside them.

I think the best feature of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is the fact that it runs itself. Many IT companies want to offer these services, but they do not really have experience or they do not have the time and energy to keep the quality going, or you do put the effort in and it becomes unprofitable. Huntress recommends the courses and sets the criteria for you and it can all be managed. I really appreciate how the emails come in and look current and realistic, not obvious spam. I appreciate that the course content will change depending on how much a user has failed. If they just clicked on the email or entered information, it will tell them what they can do better next time and give them extra training. You do not have to worry about that; it is all automatic. It is also made in such a way that it is keeping up to date, I believe with information from Huntress's SOC team. The up-to-date content reflects what people are seeing in the wild, so you know you are getting really new content.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training could be improved by varying the domains that you send from. After a few attempts, you can work out that they are all coming from the same few domains. I also think some emails could look a bit worse; sometimes they are a bit too perfect. I feel the real attacks often have spelling mistakes or formatting problems.

I have been using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for two years.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is very stable with no issues.

The scalability of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is unlimited. We can deploy it to an Entra ID tenant and do group-based deployment. It is really easy with no issues there. If we want to scale it to ten users or one thousand users, I do not really see a problem with that.

I have never had reason to ask support for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. We had a significant amount of onboarding and help, which was very thorough. After that, after getting up to speed with the onboarding, doing a demo, and going through the first customer, we really did not need any help after that.

I have not previously used a different solution before Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

It is very easy to deploy Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training because it integrates with Entra ID, so you can pretty much deploy it to everyone or a group. That is pretty seamless. Onboarding of new users is easy and seamless. It also gives you a good reporting dashboard that you can share out with customers. Key people there can review and they can target different areas. They can say that a particular department or maybe the accounts team or finance team needs to have this training. You can kind of target different sectors to make sure you get the education where you need it.

I see a return on investment with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training as it is a new product in our repertoire. I would say that per client, it adds in a couple hundred pounds worth of revenue every month. So it is definitely worthwhile considering the amount of effort you have to put in.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is fine. The pricing was clear and the RRPs were clear. I was made aware of all the prices going in and the terms of all that. I have not had any issues with the pricing. It is fairly competitive compared to other products. You can go in at many different rates to suit what your customer needs, which is from small to really big enterprises.

I evaluated other options before choosing Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training; we had a few demos with KnowBe4, but we found the pricing was fine and how the system deployed was fine. However, the course material they use is pretty out of date. The feedback to users at the time did not really point out in an email how to tell the number one thing, such as looking at the email address it came from, checking if the email address is masked, or looking for spelling mistakes. It did not pull up the email and point out and highlight in a box around the bits of the email where the problem was. So, it was good educational material, but not as up to date as Huntress and not as educational in terms of going through the anatomy of the email to show where the problem was.

I choose a rating of ten for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training because as a partner, it is easy to deploy. It stacks up against other security awareness training platforms like KnowBe4 because it uses real data in the field that is live. It is more reactive and it is faster. We are not teaching people about old tricks; it is all about new tricks. It points out in emails and tells users how they can look for the issue in the email, rather than just saying to be wary of emails. It actually gives them real, physical training on that. It also identifies to you and to our customers where the weakest members of staff are so they can take further action about that. The whole process feels quite seamless, so you do not have to worry about configuring it or how it gets up to date. It is not going to fall or drift and become one of those products you put in that eventually becomes unproductive. It kind of stays up to date by itself.

My advice to others looking into using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is that if you are looking for a value-adding tool to go alongside your other Huntress products, this is an obvious choice.

I have additional thoughts about Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. I really appreciate the animation department where they worked with South Park. It made the animation videos a bit more engaging and a bit fun, rather than really corporate and boring.

My main use case for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is to keep employees aware of phishing, run short training sessions, and track completion for compliance without adding much work for the IT team.

A specific example of how I use Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to keep employees aware and help with compliance is that I run periodic phishing simulations and send short awareness modules to all staff. When someone clicks a testing phishing link, it automatically assigns them extra training. That keeps people alert and helps show clear training records during audits.

Beyond my main use case, Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has made my awareness efforts consistent, not random. People actually recognize the test email now, and the reports make audits less stressful.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has positively impacted my organization. It has improved employee awareness, reduced risk clicks, and given me clean documentation for compliance, all without creating extra work for the IT team.

Since implementing Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, I haven't tracked an exact percentage yet, but I have noticed a clear improvement in employee awareness. People are more cautious about suspicious emails, and fewer employees click on phishing links during simulations. I have also improved my training completion records, which makes compliance audits easier. Overall, the results have been positive over the past year.

Memorable training episodes have had a positive impact on changing employee behavior. For example, after participating in realistic phishing simulations, employees become more careful about suspicious emails, start checking links before clicking, and report unusual messages to the IT team. I also notice that employees remember the lessons better when training includes real-world scenarios.

The best features of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training are the realistic phishing simulations, the clean reporting dashboard, and the fact that it is easy to manage even with small teams.

The realistic phishing simulation has helped my team by making people more cautious. They hover over links, ask before clicking, and forward suspicious mail to check. It is subtle, but I notice it directly after a few months.

One aspect of the features of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is that the automation assigning training right after the phishing test failure saves time, and the interface is not overwhelming, which helps when I am short-staffed.

I am using the Managed Learning feature, which helps keep my team's security awareness training up to date through regular training modules and phishing simulations. Employees receive updated content about new phishing techniques and security threats. It also helps me track training completion and identify employees who need additional training. Overall, it makes employee training more consistent and effective.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training handles human risk effectively through just-in-time training. For example, when an employee clicks a simulated phishing link, they receive immediate feedback and a short training module explaining what they missed and how to identify similar threats in the future. In my organization, this has helped employees become more cautious, recognize suspicious emails, and avoid repeating the same mistake.

Regarding the lightweight LMS, I use the LMS features. My experience with creating and uploading custom training programs has been generally good. The platform is easy to manage, and uploading training content is straightforward. I can organize training materials based on employee need to track completion. However, more customization options and easier content creation tools would make the experience even better.

Assigning behavior-based tasks targeting risky behaviors in my organization is pretty easy with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. I can target employees based on risky actions like simulated phish clicks and assign relevant training to help them improve. The process is simple to manage and keeps effort low for the IT team.

Regarding the Threat Simulator feature, I use the LMS feature. It reinforces learning through regular training modules, phishing simulations, and targeted lessons based on employee behavior. Employees learn to recognize suspicious emails and avoid risky actions. Over time, this has improved awareness and encouraged employees to report suspicious activity instead of clicking unknown links.

The frequency of updates to tradecraft scenarios in Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training helps my team stay prepared for new types of phishing attacks. The updated tradecraft scenarios expose employees to current attack patterns, such as more convincing emails and social engineering techniques.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training can be improved by adding more local industry-specific examples, keeping modules shorter, and offering more language options to fit non-native teams better.

Adding practical industry examples, shorter sessions, and better multilingual support and region-specific scenarios would help people connect the training to what they actually see at work. These are the improvements I would like to see in Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

Beyond what I have discussed, Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training needs deeper transparency into how the AI decides and more region-specific phishing examples to match what employees actually see.

I have been using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for about a year.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has been stable in my day-to-day use. The platform runs smoothly, training assignments go out on schedule, and the phishing simulations work without glitches. I have not had any major issues.

Regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's scalability, it is relatively easy to scale up or down as my organization changes. I can adjust the number of users and training assignments based on employee requirements. This makes it easier to manage training for new employees or growing teams without adding much administrative effort.

My experience with Huntress customer support has been generally positive. The support team is responsive, helpful, and knowledgeable. I would give the customer support eight out of ten.

Before using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, I relied mainly on manual security awareness training and basic phishing awareness activities. I switched to Huntress because I wanted a more centralized solution with automated training, realistic phishing simulations, and better reporting.

I see operational benefits from Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. The training and phishing simulations have been a solution. Employees are also becoming more careful with suspicious emails, which helps reduce risky clicks.

My experience with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training pricing, setup cost, and licensing has been generally positive. The initial setup cost is manageable, and the setup process is straightforward. The licensing model is easy to understand, and the overall pricing is reasonable considering the training modules, phishing simulations, and reporting features. However, more flexible plans for similar organizations would make it even better.

Before choosing Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, I considered a few alternatives, including KnowBe4 and Proofpoint Security Awareness Training. I compared them based on phishing simulation, training content, reporting, ease of management, and pricing. I prefer Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training because it offers a simple management experience, useful training features, and good overall value for my requirements.

I rate Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training overall eight out of ten.

I give it an eight out of ten because Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is easy to use, offers realistic phishing simulations, and helps improve employee awareness. The reporting and automated training features are also useful. There is still room for improvement in multilingual support and industry-specific content. Overall, it is a good and reliable solution.

Regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, from my experience, it has a good approach to security and governance. I appreciate its focus on data protection, access control, and responsible use of AI. However, I would like to see more transparency about how AI makes decisions, how data is processed, and how customer information is protected. Overall, I am satisfied with its security approach.

Regarding the accuracy and reliability of output from Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, in my experience, the AI capabilities are generally accurate and reliable. The recommendations are useful, and the training content is relevant to common phishing threats. However, I believe there is still room to improve accuracy in identifying more complex threats and reducing false positives. Overall, the performance has been good and meets my expectations.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is deployed in my organization as a public cloud SaaS solution. My employees access the platform through a web browser, so there is no need to maintain separate on-premises infrastructure, and it is easy to manage. The cloud deployment makes it convenient for my IT team and employees.

My advice to others looking into using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is to start small, use the phishing simulation continuously and consistently, and keep training short and regular. Make sure employees understand it is about learning, not punishment. That helps build trust and makes the training more effective.

In our day-to-day work, we use Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to help ourselves recognize phishing emails and other social engineering attacks. For example, phishing simulation allows us to identify employees who may click on suspicious links, enabling us to provide additional training and improve our organization's overall security awareness.

Since using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, we have seen improvement in our employees' understanding of phishing emails and common cyber threats, with the training and phishing simulations helping employees become more cautious when handling suspicious email links and encouraging better security practices and reduction in human error.

Memorable training episodes and realistic phishing simulations can have a positive impact on user behavior by helping employees understand real cyber threats. In phishing simulation, employees may become more cautious about clicking suspicious links, verifying unexpected email requests, and reporting suspicious messages to a security team, reinforcing security awareness and encouraging safer online behavior.

We find phishing simulation the most valuable feature because it helps us understand how employees respond to suspicious emails in real-world scenarios, helping us identify awareness gaps and allowing us to provide targeted training to reduce the risk of phishing attacks and improve our organization's overall security posture.

I have observed that Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's accuracy and reliability is quite good, as it is quite correct.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training can help address human risk through phishing simulation and targeted security awareness training, with just-in-time training being valuable as it allows employees to learn from risky actions such as clicking on a suspicious link in a phishing simulation and understand how to avoid similar mistakes in the future, enforcing secure behavior, improving threat awareness, and helping reduce the risk of human error.

Assigning behavior-based tasks is relatively straightforward when users' activity and helping results are clearly reported, helping us identify employees who need additional training, especially those who struggle to recognize phishing emails or suspicious links. However, more flexible targeting options and automated task assignments based on individual risk levels would make the process easier and more efficient.

Regular updates to the phishing scenarios help our team be prepared for emerging threats and evolving attacker techniques, as realistic scenarios based on current phishing tactics such as QR code phishing, business compromise, and AI-generated phishing messages help employees recognize suspicious activity more effectively.

Regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, I believe its AI capability should be supported by strong security control, data privacy, and transparency, ensuring that AI is used responsibly, sensitive data is protected, and access is properly controlled. Clear governance policies, regular security assessments, and human oversight are important to ensure AI-driven features remain secure, reliable, and trustworthy.

We do not use the Managed Learning feature. I have not used the Threat Simulator feature.

I would recommend Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to organizations looking to improve their employees' cybersecurity awareness and reduce phishing-related risks, as the training modules, phishing simulations, and reporting features can help identify knowledge gaps and encourage safer online behavior. My advice is to run the training campaign regularly, monitor employee performance, and provide additional training whenever needed to get the most out of this platform.

I have been using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for the last three years. We use Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to deliver monthly security training or phishing simulations to employees. A specific example is a phishing test to identify users who were more likely to click a suspicious link, then automatically assign a targeted training to help them recognize and report the phishing attempt in the future.

It fits into our workflow because the training and phishing simulations are largely automated, requiring minimal administrator effort while helping maintain ongoing security awareness across the organization. It integrates seamlessly with our security workflow. The combination of automated training, phishing simulations, and reporting helps us maintain a strong security culture without creating a significant administrative burden for our IT and security team.

The automated phishing simulation has increased engagement by giving employees practical, real-world opportunities to identify suspicious emails rather than relying solely on the training content. The targeted follow-up training helps to reinforce the lessons immediately after a mistake is made, which has improved retention and awareness. Over time, we have seen employees become more cautious with unexpected emails and more proactive about reporting potential phishing attempts.

Our experience with the lightweight LMS has been positive overall. Creating and uploading custom training is straightforward, and the interface makes it easy to organize and assign materials to users. While it may not have all the advanced features of a dedicated enterprise LMS, it provides the flexibility we need to supplement Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's built-in training with organization-specific content. Simplicity and ease of administration are among its best strengths.

Assigning behavior-based tasks has been relatively easy. The platform helps to identify risky behaviors, such as interacting with a phishing simulation, and it is straightforward to assign tasks for follow-up training. The process is largely automated, which reduces administrative effort and ensures users receive relevant training at the right time. This has made it easy to address specific risk areas without requiring extensive manual intervention from our team.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is used because its day-to-day value is less about the training itself but more about maintaining consistent employee engagement, tracking the completion rate, identifying users who may need additional coaching, and reducing the likelihood of a successful phishing attack. It is not only a security awareness tool. They have an updated package about the trainings, about the module, and they give you a simulated environment where users can really get a feel for how an actual attack looks. It is not only a video-related training where you have to go through the video, watch the video, and that is it. It is not an annual training. Time to time, we identify the users, and that gives us a simulated phishing attack environment so that in a real attack scenario, they can be aware.

A specific example is a phishing test to identify users who were more likely to click a suspicious link, then automatically assign a targeted training to help them recognize and report the phishing attempt in the future. It is not only a normal training. This training gives you up-to-date content, a real-life environment, and that is fully controlled by Huntress. You do not need to do the content creation and all those things. Those will all be taken care of by Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

There are many features, but the simulated simulation environment stands out the most. The features which stand out the most are the automated phishing simulation and targeted follow-up training. The short, engaging training content helps to improve participation, while the reporting and risk insights make it easy to track progress and identify users who may need additional coaching. The managed approach is especially valuable because it reduces the administrative workload required to keep the program running constantly.

Overall, we are satisfied with the platform, but there are a few areas that could be improved. More customization options for the training campaigns and phishing simulations would be helpful, as would additional reporting analytics to better track long-term trends in user progress. It would also be valuable to have more role-specific training content tailored to different departments or risk profiles.

The platform is easy to use and effective as it is, so the suggestions are more about adding flexibility and deeper insight, rather than addressing major shortcomings. Enhanced customization, more reporting, and additional specialized training content would make an already strong solution even better.

The features that need to be added would be for flexibility, not addressing major shortcomings.

I have been working in my current field for 10 plus years.

Customer support is quite good. We have a dedicated support team we can call. They are very supportive for creating new things and whenever we have an issue. I would give them a 10 out of 10 rating for customer support.

We were using the native Microsoft phishing simulation. We switched because of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's convenient, real-case simulations, automation, reduced administrative overhead, plus just-in-time training. That is the reason we switched to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. We have switched directly to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

Our experience was positive. The licensing model was straightforward and easy to understand, and the implementation process was smooth with minimal setup effort.

I would say it is a cost-effective solution. Our experience was positive. The licensing model was straightforward and easy to understand, and the implementation process was smooth with minimal setup effort. From a value perspective, the combination of managed training, phishing simulation, and automated administration made it a worthwhile investment and helped reduce the internal resources required for our security awareness.

If you are looking to reduce the overhead on IT and want a customized solution that is up-to-date with market standards and gives a real-time phishing simulation scenario to end users, Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is one of the best solutions.

We have seen the phishing report count has increased. Earlier, fewer people were reporting phishing links, but now they are very cautious. The reporting of phishing attempts has increased. It cannot be measured on quantity, but we have seen that awareness has truly increased among the user base.

The memorable, story-driven episodes are effective at changing user behavior because they present security concepts in a realistic, relatable way, rather than as a purely technical lesson. Employees are more to remember the key takeaways and apply them to their day-to-day work. For example, after training focused on phishing and social engineering, users become more cautious about unexpected emails, suspicious links, and requests for sensitive information.

A good example is when an employee clicks a link during a phishing simulation. Instead of just pointing it out, the platform immediately provides training that explains the warning signs that were missed and how to identify similar threats in the future. This just-in-time approach makes the lesson more relevant because it is tied directly to a recent action, reducing the likelihood of the same mistake being repeated.

I would rate this product 9 out of 10 based on my overall experience.

I would describe the ease of assigning behavior-based tasks and targeting risky behaviors in my organization as straightforward. The solution also sends reminders to users.

There is really no learning curve when it comes to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. It is not complicated if I am being honest. New starters can be automatically enrolled and assigned modules, which is a nice touch when onboarding new people. From an admin perspective, we set it up and then essentially forget about it. We set reminders for users and managers automatically, and then we obviously receive the monthly report as well, so it is fairly easy to manage.

I would assess the impact of memorable episodes on changing user behaviors as fairly engaging because they are story-driven, around five to ten minutes in length. People normally tend to complete them without being chased.

The best features of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training that I prefer include the built-in leaderboards and badges. This gives users a bit of motivation to engage with the content. In terms of the phishing simulations, if someone clicks, they are automatically assigned the relevant training for that specific simulation, which I think is quite clever.

When comparing it with other solutions, I think it squares up fairly well. We have used a solution called KnowBe4 for training prior. I have certainly not noticed any issues with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, so I have been fairly happy.

Overall, Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has fewer modules than KnowBe4, if I am being honest. That would probably be the biggest difference that I have noticed in terms of the modules available.

I believe Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training effectively targets human risk with just-in-time training for risky behaviors, and I am fairly happy with that.

I am not sure if we are using the Managed Learning feature, to be honest.

The lightweight LMS does not ring a bell for me. I do not think we are using it.

I do not think we have used the Threat Simulator feature. We are only using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for the phishing simulations and some of the training modules after that, so I am not too familiar with that feature.

Overall, having used Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for twelve months, I think we have seen less engagement with the phishing emails post-training, which obviously means the information is going into the users. Because the content is fairly engaging, there is definitely a noticeable improvement in terms of our cyber security.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training does not require any maintenance, as that is handled by the vendor; we do not have to do any updates that I am aware of.

I would rate this product an eight overall.

My main use case for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is educating our cybersecurity teams on the utilization of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training and also general awareness of the latest threats and vulnerabilities.

A specific example of how I use Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training with my cybersecurity teams is that it is also used to evaluate team members on their knowledge of the latest threats and the awareness of security within the organization, and we have done this every three months.

I have covered the use cases comprehensively in my previous answer.

The best features Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training offers include the latest threat information, the latest vulnerabilities, and the ability for the team to review them at their own pace and then be part of a group discussion at a later stage.

The group discussion aspect for my team is usually productive, and I find that the self-paced learning helps my team stay engaged by bringing different perspectives after the team has undergone the awareness trainings. When the discussion takes place, there are always different views and a common consensus is arrived at the end.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has positively impacted my organization by helping our team keep track in terms of the latest threats, the latest cybersecurity trends, and what is basically required for us to be secure.

I do not see anything specific for improvement for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training per se, as I think it is a good solution to have.

If I had to think of one small area for improvement, integration into other platforms would help, but that is totally up to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training team. Integration into our internal tools to ensure it is propagated automatically would be nice, but that is not a big deal.

I do not think any other improvements are needed for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training that I have not mentioned yet.

I have been using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for four years.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is very stable.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is scalable based on the latest threats.

The customer support for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is very effective.

We went for Huntress SIEM, and Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training platform was an add-on to the existing SIEM.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training went quite smoothly, and we had no hiccups.

We have definitely seen a return on investment in terms of knowledge gained, and the team is better prepared now to handle ongoing threats and the latest threats.

It is quite easy to assign behavior-based tasks targeting risky behaviors in my organization as long as they have a collaborative platform like Huntress SIEM.

I have used the threat simulator feature, and it is definitely a useful tool for practical learning as not everything is theory-based; we can actually simulate threats and see if the team is able to pinpoint and find the actual logs for threat hunting.

The frequency of updates to tradecraft scenarios impacts my team's preparedness for new types of phishing attacks because the latest threats are always evolving, and the latest scenarios available on the platform help in training.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training effectively targets human risk with just-in-time training for risky behaviors by alerting our teams when there is a zero-day vulnerability leaked into the open. This allows them to go through all the identified patterns, risks, and the recommendations for remediating that particular incident to be proactive.

We find teams discussing with each other on the latest threats and what they have learned in the previous weeks and how it can be practically employed in day-to-day security operations, showing the impact of memorable episodes on changing user behaviors.

I am using the managed learning feature, and it has been useful to allocate bite-sized trainings to the team members week on week and also keep track of their progress.

My advice to others looking into using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is to definitely try before buying. I would rate this product a 9 out of 10.

I switched from KnowBe4 to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training primarily due to the overall experience, pricing, and general feedback from my internal team. The look and feel of the training and phishing modules were significantly better and more relevant than KnowBe4. Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is a better and more modern platform compared to KnowBe4.

The usability and end-user experience from both the training and phishing modules stand out as key improvements to how the organization functions.

Assigning behavioral-based tasks targeting risky behaviors in my organization is easy to set up. I find the impact of memorable episodes on changing user behaviors to be good. Although it has only been a couple of months, the benefits of security awareness training are quite impactful. When we sent the initial training and onboarding experience internally, we got great results. People found the training provided through Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training far better than our previous platform, and I expect it will have more results as we use it more internally and for our clients.

The main benefits I have seen from using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training are improved usability and end-user experience from both the training and phishing modules. The setups are all great, making it a fantastic platform compared to where we were previously.

It would be great to see adjustment capabilities for the Managed Learning feature. Currently, it is set to either monthly or quarterly, but it would be beneficial to set when those quarters are sent out. Right now, the schedule is the first of January, then three months after that, and three months after that. Outside of that, everything else is excellent.

I have been using this solution for a couple of months.

The support team at Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is great and provides excellent support.

The initial setup process for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training worked well. They have Direct Message Injection for both Google and Microsoft 365, which is valuable because many places lack support on the Google side. This capability allowed me to avoid having to work with email filters and IP whitelisting. I simply installed it inside of Entra or Google Workspace, turned on a couple of different settings that are detailed in the knowledge base articles, and then started sending test phishing and training. The overall setup was great. There are a few fine-tuning settings that can be adjusted on a per-organization basis, but nothing too complicated. I am currently moving people from a previous solution to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, and this process is proving to be quite easy. I am managing this transition across multiple organizations.

It is probably too early to measure return on investment, but the benefits of security awareness training generally show ROI through fewer breaches and more phishing emails being reported.

The pricing for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training was cheaper than my current product by a significant amount. The licensing costs and everything were bundled together, resulting in a cheaper and better solution.

I evaluated other options including Proofpoint's security awareness training and Microsoft's built-in Defender solution, but I opted for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

If you care about security awareness training, I would definitely recommend Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training. The fact that it is real-world and the training is linked to your geolocation is a significant advantage. The inline training upon failing a test is also excellent. With other solutions, you simply fail the test and move on, whereas Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training shows you exactly where you failed and helps you build more information on that topic. The training is flashy, modern, and great for learning. I would strongly recommend this solution and encourage you to reach out to their support team because they are excellent and will help support your implementation. I give this product a rating of ten out of ten.

My usual use cases for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training include sending out phishing emails and sending phishing courses to all employees.

I installed Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training in my company to provide awareness about security and best practices, and also to stay up to date with employees' knowledge about different kinds of phishing attacks that are occurring and what they are aware of.

The features of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training that I have found most valuable include the managed solution aspect, which is beneficial for the majority of companies like ours because we do not have enough time and do not want to spend a lot of time creating courses, sending them out to employees, monitoring them, creating phishing simulations, sending them out, and waiting for results to complete. After monitoring, we can assign even more courses to the failed users.

The ease of assigning behavior-based tasks targeting risky behaviors in my organization while using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is straightforward; I just have to go there and click on it. Because we also use Datto EDR, it is even integrated, which helps us with assigning courses.

I assess the impact of memorable episodes on changing user behaviors with the results that we get, as it would be much easier for us to know because with all the reports that we are getting, it is easier to know how many people are failing and for what reason they were failing.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training effectively targets human risk with just-in-time training for risky behaviors by allowing us to choose one month or quarterly, which depends on us. There is also a custom base, so I can assign only one course to all users on a weekly basis or fortnightly; I can choose my custom option. However, they usually do either monthly or quarterly, and we can choose what we want.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has kept my team's training up to date; every week they release different courses, mostly about AI because that is what is trending now, and they try to send courses like that, which is actually good.

The frequency of updates to tradecraft scenarios impacts my team's preparedness for new types of phishing attacks without a specific schedule because if there is a zero-day attack today, it might affect everybody. Sometimes Huntress pushes the course maybe the next month, which is good, but there is nothing specific. There may be a few months without any attack, and they can just brush up on the previous one. Then tomorrow, there may be another attack on Windows, and they can communicate, 'Please do not click on these links. Please do not scan this QR code or something like that.'

In my opinion, Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training can be improved by adding the French language because we are in Quebec; all the courses currently have only subtitles. Users can choose English, French, and other languages, but they do not have the voice in French, which is what I wanted.

I have been working with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for almost three months.

We do not see any issues.

I evaluate that Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is highly scalable; we just set it up one time, and then tomorrow if there are 100 more people joining the company, it is automatically added. We just need to pay for more licenses.

Overall, the technical support of Huntress is very good; they are super fast and responsive because I have live chat, and they will follow up with emails, making everything excellent. I would give them a nine or something.

Positive

I used a different solution for these use cases; I was using TerraNova.

I decided to switch from TerraNova to Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training mainly because it is managed. Since we also have Huntress EDR, it is better to be under one vendor for different things instead of having a separate vendor for every different application. It will be integrated, which is a best feature; for example, if there is a password file on my system, Huntress EDR captures it and communicates that I have a file called passwords on my desktop and I should take action or something. In the notes, it states that I can assign a password policy module to this particular user. I can just open SAT, click on the password policy, and push it to that user. The integration makes our life a bit easier.

I participated in the initial setup and deployment of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, which was very easy; it is just SSO integration, and it hardly took 15 to 20 minutes.

I have seen a return on investment with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training in terms of time; definitely a lot. As for money, since we did not have any attacks, I cannot say. Perhaps if tomorrow there is an attack and a billion dollars are saved, then the answer would be affirmative.

Since starting with Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training, I have seen benefits, including that people are aware of the different kinds of attacks; since it is managed, we do not have much to do, which is good so far. Overall, you just set it up and forget; we do not need to do any changes or anything. It is good that we do not need to monitor anything, and we also have customizations such as sending reports to the department managers or the user's manager, so everything is automated, which is good. The only thing is French; if it were there, perhaps that would have helped us, specifically Quebec companies.

I think that the pricing and licensing of Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is a little bit higher compared to other solutions that I have used in the past. However, since it is managed, it is worth paying.

My main use case for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is educating end users. A specific example of how I use it to educate end users includes conducting phishing simulations, and if they click on something that could be bad, it gives them applicable training material.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training offers the best features through phishing simulations and regular monthly video training.

Users respond to the monthly video training by finding it both engaging and easy to follow.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training has positively impacted my organization by bringing good educational resources to end users.

I have definitely noticed improved user awareness since implementing Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training effectively targets human risk with just-in-time training for risky behaviors, and users will receive training videos within minutes after clicking on a phishing simulation.

I cannot think of a way for Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training to be improved as it is a good product.

I have been using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training for eight months.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is stable.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is very easy to scale.

Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's customer support is outstanding. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate the customer support a 10.

We did not previously use a different solution.

We are a partner and a reseller with this vendor, beyond being just a customer.

I have definitely seen a return on investment as there has been increased awareness within the office, so I am certain we have not clicked on malicious activity because of this.

My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was a good experience.

We did not evaluate other options before choosing Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training.

I would describe the ease of assigning behavior-based tasks targeting risky behaviors in my organization as very easy because I do not have to do anything; it is already done.

The impact of memorable episodes, such as the monthly video training, has been well received by end users, and they seem to appreciate it overall.

I do not think I have used the Threat Simulator feature.

We are not using the managed learning feature.

Regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, I am not sure about its governance and security. I have not noticed any mistakes or it missing anything regarding Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training's AI capabilities, but I am unaware of any AI capabilities within the security awareness training.

My advice to others looking into using Huntress Managed Security Awareness Training is to definitely look into it as I would highly recommend subscribing to it. I would rate this product a 10 overall.
