May 10, 2023 5.0 Achieving information security is critical to our company's success. PhishingBox overcomes the problem of employees clicking on harmful, fraudulent, or phishing emails by training them to recognize which emails are secure and which should be reported instead. PhishingBox always adds significant value by assisting all of our clients in identifying, reporting, and stopping phishing attempts, which continue to be one of the most common methods attackers breach network perimeters. Pros Keeping information private is critical for any organization; the UI for designing a phishing campaign is highly user-friendly, and it's particularly wonderful to be able to conduct a campaign for an extended length of time to prevent employees from revealing the fact that they got a phishing email. I particularly enjoy how you can plan training for people who fell for it and track their progress. I've also utilized the management reports to illustrate progress between campaigns to business owners. The pre-existing templates for phishing emails are fantastic, and the classes they give to assist teach personnel on phishing are also fantastic. Cons I'd like to see more templates for the programs our firm utilizes, such as Microsoft Azure and Atlassian; some of the reporting tools might be tough to find out the particular facts we need. However, after experimenting with a few different types, we typically found what we were searching for. We have discovered a few flaws in the platform, but PhishingBox support is very quick and devoted to make the platform function for their clients in all conditions. Review Source WA William A. Lead Programmer Computer Games Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A top notch security management tool" April 12, 2023 5.0 Compared with before now there are very less network threats occurring in our systems. And also it prevents any future threats that may occur in our systems thanks to it's vulnerability scanning option. Pros The threat detection system and vulnerability tracking is very useful. And notifications management is very useful. Also it's convenient and very easy to use. Cons Nothing much to say, as everything works fairly well. But it's better if it can scan user mode vulnerabilities as well.

Assistant vice president Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "System Security Improver" September 22, 2024 4.0 Overall this is very easy to setup and very useful Pros I like about PhishingBox is it helps educate the our employee regarding phishing very effectively and improve our system security. By using this we are to provide training to our clients also. The support system of this application is very useful Cons The UI can be made more better as it is little hard to handle. Review Source GB Gaurav B. HR Manager Apparel & Fashion Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Best phishing training Software" August 2, 2024 4.0 Overall experience is nice . It helped us a lot. Pros I am using this since long ago . It really helped our employee to train related to the phishing training. It is very easy to use. The support provided by PhishingBox is very attentive and helpful. They support from starting to end to send phishing mail. Cons It is more expensive as compared to other tool available in market. It's UI is little bit confusable. Rest is all good Review Source Nicholas G P. Engineering Manager Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great security awareness tool, great analysis." June 6, 2023 5.0 Because PhishingBox is preventing our employees from falling into the habit of clicking on spam emails, our company is less vulnerable to real-life phishing emails. By sending phishing emails on a regular basis, PhishingBox allows us to evaluate our security training programs while also allowing our user base to keep a secure way to viewing their emails. We profit from managing and directing testing when and how we need to since PhishingBox offers a campaign design engine that provides incredibly fine grained control over practically every area. Pros The best aspect of PhishingBox is that emails can be written or changed from an existing template; straight out of the box, PhishingBox provides you with a plethora of templates to work with; using these templates, I was able to compose up to a year's worth of phishing evidence in only 40 minutes. I like how we can load campaigns with many templates and categorize them depending on the various departments we have, as well as design unique features to ensure people see all test and sender information. PhishingBox is very helpful to our firm because of its excellent analytics; after each campaign, we evaluate the data, and PhishingBox informs us in an instant what our trend is. Cons The disadvantage is that it is not particularly obvious or transparent in a way that allows you to ship rapidly, and the shipping procedure becomes cumbersome. Sizing photographs when building custom components may be difficult, but with a few modifications, you'll be well on your way to getting it exactly right. Perhaps a better option would be to preview bespoke photos. A wish list item for me is additional templates; having a diverse set of templates reduces the likelihood of a single user seeing the same one twice, and having more templates keeps our awareness up.

Salesman Retail Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "PhishingBox: Fortifying Defenses, Empowering Security" May 19, 2023 5.0 PhishingBox has been instrumental in addressing security challenges in my work. By regularly conducting phishing simulations, I've been able to educate and train employees on the dangers of phishing attacks. The platform's reporting and analytics have helped identify areas where additional training is needed, allowing us to strengthen our organization's overall security posture. The ability to proactively identify and mitigate potential vulnerabilities has been a significant benefit, ultimately reducing the risk of successful phishing attacks and data breaches. Pros What I like the most about PhishingBox is its user-friendly interface and intuitive campaign creation process. The platform provides a wide range of customizable phishing templates, making it easy to create realistic and targeted campaigns. Additionally, the ability to track and analyze the results of each campaign is incredibly valuable. The detailed reports and analytics provide insightful data on employee behavior and susceptibility to phishing attacks, allowing for targeted training and awareness efforts. Cons While PhishingBox is a great tool overall, there are a few aspects that I find could be improved. One area for enhancement is the template library. Although there are a variety of templates available, it would be beneficial to have more industry-specific and up-to-date templates to better mimic real-world phishing scenarios. Additionally, enhancing the customization options for emails and landing pages would further enhance the realism and effectiveness of the campaigns. Review Source Alvin G.

Cons There isn't much to say because the general performance of the system is outstanding.

We didn't used the real-time protection features but awareness training program is overall is the best feature of this software. Cons The not-so-occasional inability to further customize an option is a bit vexing for the more advanced user, but again, a very minor point that takes little away from the overall utility of the software.
