	Infosec IQ	KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus
Considered Both Products	Infosec Verified User Chose Infosec IQ When evaluating potential solutions for their effectiveness and return on investment (ROI), several factors stood out in our decision to choose Infosec IQ: Single Sign-On (SSO) Integration, excellent Support and Customer Service: and scalability/flexibility: Incentivized Helpful? marc puhala security Architect in Information Technology at Penn Entertainment (Entertainment, 10,001+ employees) Chose Infosec IQ Infosec was more user friendly, better support and better cost. Incentivized Helpful? Emad Badawi GRC in Information Technology at Veem (Financial Services, 51-200 employees) Chose Infosec IQ InfoSecIQ was selected and deployed by my colleagues before joining the team so I am not confident in answering this question. However, based on my experience while dealing with Infosec IQ, It provides good training materials with animation and good phishing campaigns. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Infosec IQ Infosec IQ has better, more realistic simulated phishing emails. The training modules are similar, no clear winner there. I like the post-click landing pages from KnowBe4 better. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Infosec IQ KnowBe4 required us to dismantle our security (SPF and DKIM) before we could use it. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Infosec IQ Running very close, but simplicity and ease of use along with pricing won over the competition. Incentivized Helpful? Caleb Yankus CTO (Chief Technical Officer) in Information Technology at Last Bastion Technology (Information Technology & Services, 1-10 employees) Chose Infosec IQ Infosec IQ was just better and easier to use. KnowBe4 was our go-to for a long time, but it just doesn't compare. Sophos is good but doesn't provide the same level of complexity or the number of services. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Infosec IQ I have used KnowBe4 in the past, and while I did not see a clear cut example of PhishER having a comparison, the ability to schedule tests was fantastic. It was far easier to schedule the number of emails a user was to receive and the time frame of the test. KnowBe4 does not … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Infosec IQ It is ok but can't be used as a general platform - it is actually better in that it is more specific. Incentivized Helpful?	KnowBe4 Verified User Chose KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus I have previously used Infosec IQ and Mimecast for similar purposes. Infosec IQ allowed my users to report messages, but the interface was clumsy and there weren't any features to allow me to quarantine or block message from within that dashboard. Mimecast was similar, but the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus We certainly have better visibility/reporting and automations with KnowBe4 compared to Infosec IQ. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose KnowBe4 PhishER/PhishER Plus one word, automation! Incentivized Helpful?
