Really helps ingrain the right email security mindset, without hassle

It's great and I'm happy my coworkers enjoy and share what they learn about phishing.

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Value for money

Functionality

Pros:

It's extremely easy to use and not manual setup needed for the user if implemented by an organization. Simulated trainings can be sent to non opted-in users and easy instructions help them get enrolled. Simulations ramp up to become very realistic, and even very knowledgeable users have to do double-takes. Very short, non-intrusive, learning snippets for each simulation explain things like sense of urgency, how to check links and best practices well. Users in my teams have over the past two years started reporting anything suspicious, and it's a big difference from before implementing Hoxhunt.

Cons:

I think the training ceiling could be increased a bit to avoid having users instinctively report (expecting a simulation training) and treat an email as 'safe' if it turns out not to be a threat simulation.

Pros:

Hoxhunt simplifies the process of keeping the entire team informed about the most recent security policies and best practices. Its interactive and engaging training sessions ensure that security awareness is always a top priority for everyone, making the learning process enjoyable and memorable. The platform's content is consistently updated, and its focus on real-world threats is highly practical.

Cons:

There's not much to dislike about Hoxhunt. If I had to pick something, it would be great to have more customization options for the training sessions. Nevertheless, the "pause training" feature is very helpful in ensuring that no one falls behind, which is a thoughtful touch.

Pros:

What I like about the software is that it is intuitive to the process in your everyday use of Outlook / emails. There is not alot of steps you need to make. See something, say something etc..

Cons:

Trickery - it's not necessarily bad, just that a couple times I feel like I was duped when either missing an email or deleted knowing it wasn't for me.

One small, but incredibly effective, email addon!

Ratings Breakdown

Ease of use

Functionality

Pros:

I love how Hoxhunt gamifies the concept of phishing scams. It helps keep users aware of scams and does a great job showing users with only similar scores as you. I don't know all of the employees working at my company, but when I do see someone I know around my score, I screenshot it and send it to them. It makes for a good laugh and friendly competition in the workplace. We have even had moments in staff meetings laughing about how someone once again was excited to get an email, but ended up being hoxhunted.

Cons:

I don't have complaints about Hoxhunt. I have submitted feedback on aspects I would like to see differently, and the company actually has changed the aspects I wasn't a big fan of. So at this moment and time, I just enjoy using Hoxhunt.

Pros:

There is a good mix of tests and information on what to do/not to do. Great leaderboard to see where you are with your peers and across the other businesses.

Cons:

If you're on leave and miss a threat email it seems as though you have missed it because of not noticing the threat and counts against you. There should be a longer time frame to report the email.
