Why Tartan
If you're pricing CyberHoot for a school, you'll have to ask. Its price list comes by email, and education pricing is by quote. Its own phishing test, HootPhish, runs in a browser, and staff know it's a test. Tartan App sends simulations to the inbox and lists school prices on its website.
Free onboarding. Same-day support via email, phone, or video call.

CyberHoot's homepage says it serves MSPs and SMBs. We built Tartan only for K-12 schools, and Tartan's phishing simulations run in the inbox.
Tartan sends simulated phishing emails to the inbox every 15, 30, 60, or 90 days. Each person gets one per cycle, at a random time. You see who clicks a real-looking email, and a click starts training that takes under 30 seconds. CyberHoot's HootPhish runs in the browser, and users know before they start that it's an exercise. CyberHoot sends inbox emails through AttackPhish, a power-up module.
Public school districts and Canadian school boards pay per school, with unlimited staff. Independent schools pay by employee and student tiers. Both are on our pricing page. CyberHoot sends its price list by email and quotes education pricing.
Staff report suspicious email with the Tartan App Shield button in Gmail or Outlook. Reports land in Threat Manager, where you review and respond. CyberHoot forwards reported email to a mailbox your admin sets.
Tartan's Student Phishing & Video Training has simulations and videos made for students, and it's sold separately. CyberHoot's education page covers schools, colleges, and universities, and names no grade or age range.
