Comparing Huntress SAT? Here's the small-team math
Huntress makes good managed security software, and its Security Awareness Training comes with a real self-serve free trial. What it doesn't come with is a published per-seat price — and its volume tiers start at 50 learners. If you're a 5, 12, or 25-person team that just wants phishing drills with a number on the pricing page, here's how ScamDrill compares.

Two different products for two different buyers
This isn't a hit piece. Huntress is a serious company, and for some readers it's the better choice. The question is what you're actually shopping for.
What Huntress does well
Huntress is a managed security company: its SAT product sits alongside managed EDR and identity protection, and the whole stack is built to be run through MSPs or as a managed service. Managed SAT is available standalone, has a self-serve free trial, and bills per learner per month (annually, in arrears) with volume discounts and directory syncing so you only pay for active users. If you want awareness training as one line item in a broader managed-security relationship, that model works.
Where ScamDrill fits differently
ScamDrill is a training product, not a managed security stack — a real tradeoff if you also need EDR. In exchange, everything is self-serve and priced in public: a flat $449/yr plan built for 2–25 seat teams, email phishing drills, and a consumer product — with email and SMS drills — so employees' families can train at home. Huntress publishes its pricing model but not the dollar figure; you book a demo to get one. We'd rather you do the math before you talk to anyone — including us.

Who each one is right for
Cheaper isn't better if it's the wrong product. Pick by how you want security run.
Choose Huntress if…
You want awareness training managed for you as part of a broader managed-security stack, you already work with an MSP (or are one), or you're consolidating vendors around a company that also handles EDR and identity protection. At 50+ learners, its volume tiers were designed for you, and "only pay for active users" via directory syncing is genuinely convenient at that scale. Book their demo and get the number — that's a reasonable path for that buyer.
Choose ScamDrill if…
You're a small team — especially under 50 people, and definitely under 25 — that wants to see the price, sign up, and send the first drill this afternoon. You want email phishing simulations, per-employee adaptive training, compliance reports for insurers and auditors, and coverage that extends to employees' families at home — where the consumer Family plans add SMS drills too. You'd rather not book a call to learn what something costs.

ScamDrill's consumer product means the training doesn't stop at the office door. Employees' families can build the same instincts against the scams that hit personal phones.
Common questions when comparing
Huntress doesn't publish a per-seat dollar price for Managed SAT; its pricing page directs you to book a demo. The published model is per-learner per-month, billed annually, with volume discounts in tiers starting at 50 learners, and directory syncing so you only pay for active users. Huntress details checked 2026-08-05 from huntress.com; verify current terms with the vendor.
Yes — and we're not going to pretend otherwise. Huntress Managed SAT is available standalone with a self-serve free trial; billing starts after the trial and is in arrears. ScamDrill's trial is also self-serve: 30 days on every organization plan, no sales call.
No. Huntress is a managed security company; SAT sits alongside its managed EDR and identity products. ScamDrill replaces the awareness-training piece only — simulations, adaptive training, risk scoring, and compliance reporting. If you need someone to manage endpoint detection for you, that's outside what we do.
Starter is $449/yr for 2–25 seats — as low as $1.50/seat/mo. Team is $1,499/yr up to 100 seats, Business $5,999/yr up to 500, Enterprise $19,999/yr up to 2,500. All published at the organizations page, all with a 30-day free trial.
Yes. ScamDrill also makes a consumer product, so employees' households can practice at home. The habit transfers: someone who deletes a fake delivery text on Saturday is likelier to delete a fake invoice on Monday.
