Anyone who wants to explore and learn Cybersecurity can easily find their way out through hackthbox because it has dedicated and individual path for every subdomain in Cybersecurity and also it has Level-Based [ tier ] learning which is also very useful to upgrade and know our current potential in the skills And also their Customer Support

CONS

It has different websites for different things like for academic ( learning ) , CTF ( for playing CTF ) like that . Its always hard to navigate through their website quickly. But a few days back they have introduced the merging feature . Its fine now

Reasons for switching to Hack The Box

I found HTB is far more better compared to TryHackMe in all the fields like learning [ either theory/Practical] , Customer Support, its ease of use and the user Interface

One stop solution for learning cybersecurity

PROS

It is awesome platform which boosts one's learning curve by 10 fold. It contains many machines and challenges on varied topics like binary,web,cryptography etc.. I use their platform everyday and im addicted to learn lot of things from this platform. Since they have enterprise version my organization had subscribed, so i spend time at office when I'm free, They have integrated enterprise and public platform in such a way one doesnot loose their progress, which is very good for tracking user milestones etc.. HTB community is all about dedication. It is good to learn from the people aiding in sharing content and knowlege. Their web apps are so well designed for user experience without compromising on content. Spending time here will likely boost our career options, since the profile ranks and points shows an individual's time spent on the platform which is proportional to the user's skillset. I really like their weekly machines and challenges for which ranks are acheived creating a compitition among users. Their customer support are very prompt in solving technical/non technical issues.

CONS

They guided mode to aid beginners to solve challenges but it needs to be improved. Learning curve is steep compromising on the content. More academy related theoretical content mapping to practical labs needs to be developed to aid newbies.

Learn or improve your hacking skills

PROS

Hack the Box has very quality content. I learned a lot from this platform. It contains a lot gamified content. Also it is not too expensive and it worth the money.

CONS

Sometimes infrastructure is not 100% working, and the web contains several less severe bugs. I had several issues with the bugs in the web and infrastructure. All my issue was solved with HTB support.
