Basically for training purposes is what we've been using it for. I understand that for expert people this program would not be much help but for the vast majority of new workers that we receive at the company is pretty well suited. The editor is good because we let the students train by creating templates.

PhishRod has helped us create mock phishing attacks throughout our company to help teach our users what to look for in a phishing attack. The ability to create custom attacks has helped tremendously because we are able to use attacks related to what we encounter on a daily basis. Creating training phishing attack emails has helped improve our overall security.
