How do their strengths and limits compare?
Strengths
- The only full public price list in this set: four licences from £11,950 to £25,725 a year.
- Simulates the information environment around the players: news, social media and messaging.
- Scales from one team to 1,000+ simultaneous teams, in person, online or hybrid.
Limits
- You design and run the exercise yourself in the Scenario Editor, which is closer to exercise design than to a ready-made scenario.
- No technical hands-on training, and the template library is general crisis content rather than cyber-specific.
Strengths
- Deep technical content: Academy modules, Professional Labs, machines and capture-the-flag events, with 4.3m+ learners.
- A published business price, $2,500 per seat per year on the Professional plan, and a 14-day trial on Lite.
- Crisis Control adds a tabletop with optional hands-on investigation for technical players.
Limits
- A team range on your own tools is not described; SOC Range access is listed for an individual plan from Q4 2026.
- Crisis Control pricing is not published, and its scenarios are tailored with facilitator guidance, which takes more lead time than a self-serve generator.
Which one fits which team?
Look at Conducttr if you want to design your own crisis exercises and see the price before a call, or if your exercise needs simulated press and social media pressure. Look at Hack The Box if your technical team needs labs and certifications first and a tabletop second, or if you want a business price you can budget against before a call.
