Pros

Training users to recognize possible dangers in data theft (cyber attacks) with various methods like phishing among others like social engineering.
Ability to report via email possible cyber attack emails.
Many campaigns and data for training/education.
Funny and short videos for great training.

Cons

Analyst Console is sluggish and requires 3-6 clicks just delete, archive, submit. Could make its faster or just remove some of the extra clicks for some basic functions.
Some of the extra training, email replies, links are broken and sometimes ding you because they lead to errors that you have clicked on training phishing emails.
Campaigns and grouping users is a little complicated. Dashboard is at times cumbersome and over populated, making it difficult to do extra functions.
On all the above notes I will say our contact/trainer is amazing and is a big help.
