Overall Satisfaction with Proofpoint Security Awareness Training (formerly Wombat Security)

Proofpoint Security was used by our organization for about a year. It was used to deliver security training to the entire organization. It addressed the need for training in the area of cybersecurity.

Pros

  • The Administrator interface was easy to use. It's important for users to be able to create training fast, efficiently and professionally.
  • The content was timely and relevant. Our employees really enjoyed the training!
  • The reporting function was easy to use.

Cons

  • At the time that I used the system, there wasn't an easy way to create sequential learning. It appeared more complicated than I expected.
  • To add users to a campaign you had to push the due date out. If only someone could figure out how to solve this!
  • I'm not sure about the ROI but I know our employees have improved in terms of security awareness.
I have used both and can say they are comparable. KnowBe4 has all the content out there for the admin to add but Proofpoint only had a limited number of courses available per the contract. Seems like KnowBe4 has more content or allows more per bundle.
I always received thoughtful, helpful support from the entire team.

    Hi - Thank you for your review! As an FYI you can choose "Duration" instead of "Scheduled" in the Training Assignment type so you can continue to add users to an existing training assignment for as long as you would like.
