    Very good experience so far rolling out Zenguide as a replacement to our previous security awareness platform. Very professional and helpful pre-sales team, and a dedicated resource helping us to set up and run our phishing simulation and training campaigns.

Proofpoint ZenGuide Likes & Dislikes

Like

Clean, intuitive interface, good reporting/analytics, decent training content and phishing templates, with the ability to de-fang real phishing campaigns seen by Proofpoint Email Security and use them as phishing templates. I am particularly keen on the ongoing support from our assigned resource in setting up and running phishing campaigns. Importantly, the price was significantly lower than we were paying for our previous product.

Dislike

The awareness training component which feels somewhat rigid. It lacks flexibility and the inability to make changes once a campaign or training is in progress limits its adaptability.
