How do their strengths and limits compare?

Cyberbit

Strengths

  • A cloud cyber range with 100+ team exercises and 2,800+ solo labs on one platform.
  • Exercises use tools from CrowdStrike, Splunk, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet and Microsoft.
  • Four certificate programmes accredited by ANAB in July 2026, each ending in a hands-on capstone.

Limits

  • Crisis Sim 360 is sold only as an add-on to a Cyberbit Readiness plan, so the executive exercise comes with a range purchase.
  • No published price, no free tier, and nothing aimed at the wider workforce.

KnowBe4

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 Cyberbit if your SOC needs team exercises on a live-fire range, or if you want accredited certificates for analysts' hands-on work. Look at KnowBe4 if your gap is employees clicking on or not reporting phishing, or if you need training that reaches every employee.

Can I compare several platforms at once?

Yes. The platform fact grid puts up to twelve side by side, and you can pick which ones.
