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
- Built for every employee: awareness training and simulated phishing with 1,000+ modules, videos and games.
- A free Cybersecurity Awareness Month kit for October 2026, including four tabletop exercise documents.
- Published per-seat pricing for two awareness tiers, from $1.63 to $3.75 per seat per month on a 3-year term.
Limits
- Not incident response training: no range, no technical labs and no crisis simulation platform.
- Published prices assume a 3-year term and stop at 1,000 seats; larger organisations get a quote.
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 KnowBe4 if your gap is employees clicking on or not reporting phishing, or if you need training that reaches every employee.
