Curricula's cartoon content is genuinely friendly — but per-seat pricing scales with headcount. SecurEveryone is the flat-rate live coaching alternative for SMBs — $900/yr, no LMS required.
Curricula makes genuinely friendly, non-boring cybersecurity training — their story-based animated approach gets consistent praise from users who find traditional corporate training painful. With Drata integration and a clean LMS-free interface, Curricula is a legitimate product for the right buyer.
But if you're an SMB — especially a team under 200 employees that wants live interaction, flat-rate pricing, and phishing sims included — Curricula has some significant gaps:
Curricula's cartoon/animation modules are consumed on-demand. Your team can't ask questions about the wire-fraud email they almost fell for last week. Live coaching fills that gap — and it's what actually changes behavior.
Curricula's estimated pricing (~$3-6/user/month) means a 50-person firm pays $1,800-$3,600/year. SecurEveryone's Business tier is $900/year flat regardless of team size.
Simulated threat attacks are available as an add-on with Curricula, not bundled in the base subscription. SecurEveryone includes live phishing scenario walkthroughs in every session at no additional charge.
Curricula's integration ecosystem is narrower than enterprise platforms. Drata and OneLogin are the primary integrations — if you use a different GRC tool or identity provider, you're out of luck.
Curricula is entirely self-serve with pre-recorded content. There's no live instructor, no real-time Q&A, and no way to get a human to address your team's specific threats.

Curricula is a genuinely friendly product. Here's where it makes sense — and where it doesn't.
If your workforce has historically disengaged from mandatory training, Curricula's cartoon approach is genuinely more pleasant. The content quality is better than most competitors. SecurEveryone's live format requires scheduling, which some teams resist.
If you're already using Drata for compliance management and want security training data flowing into your GRC dashboard, Curricula's native Drata integration is purpose-built for that. SecurEveryone doesn't integrate with Drata.
If your team spans multiple time zones or has shift workers who can't all join a live session, Curricula's on-demand modules work on any schedule. SecurEveryone's live sessions require real-time attendance.
If your primary goal is documenting training completion for an audit, Curricula's LMS-native tracking handles that well. SecurEveryone provides instructor-signed summaries, which satisfy auditors but require more manual documentation.
Curricula's cartoon content is engaging, but engagement doesn't equal skill transfer. Pre-recorded content — no matter how friendly — can't replace live interactive coaching where your team asks about the attacks they actually face.
Curricula's simulated threat attacks are a separate add-on, not bundled. With SecurEveryone, live phishing scenario walkthroughs are included in every session at no additional charge.
At 50 users, Curricula's estimated pricing runs $1,800-$3,600/year. SecurEveryone's Business tier is $900/year flat regardless of team size. No per-seat scaling, no annual contract required.
Dental (HIPAA), CPA (IRS Pub 4557 / GLBA), legal (ABA Rule 1.6), medical (HIPAA Security Rule / HITECH), nonprofit — content that's actually relevant to your threats.
Your leadership team learns by asking questions about real attacks. A live instructor can address the specific wire-fraud attempt someone almost fell for last week.
Documentation, instructor-signed session summaries, and the ability to answer OCR audit questions about your training program. We know what auditors look for.
"Curricula's cartoon content was genuinely engaging — our team actually watched the videos. But a month later, they couldn't remember what a phishing email looked like. One live SecurEveryone session did more than three months of cartoon modules. The live Q&A was the difference."
— HR Director, Mid-size Professional Services Firm
"The Q&A was the differentiator. Our property managers asked about the exact wire-fraud email scams they'd seen in the previous quarter — specific amounts, specific names. No video library template covers that. That's where the real learning happened."
— Operations Director, Property Management Firm
Curricula pricing is contact-sales-only with no fully public price list. Based on available review data (G2, Capterra), estimated pricing runs ~$4/user/month. This table uses $4/user/month as the comparison baseline.
| Team Size | Curricula (est. $4/user/mo) | SecurEveryone Business | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50 users | $2,400/yr | $900/yr | +$1,500 (Curricula) |
| 100 users | $4,800/yr | $900/yr | +$3,900 (Curricula) |
| 250 users | $12,000/yr | $900/yr | +$11,100 (Curricula) |
| 500 users | $24,000/yr | $900/yr | +$23,100 (Curricula) |
Curricula estimates based on ~$4/user/month from available review data. Actual pricing requires a sales quote per organization. Does not include simulated threat attack add-on costs.
Yes — users on G2 and Capterra consistently praise Curricula's friendly, non-boring content. The cartoon/animation approach works well for teams that find traditional corporate training boring. However, engagement doesn't automatically equal skill transfer. Pre-recorded content, no matter how friendly, still can't replace live interactive coaching where your team asks about the specific attacks they actually face.
No — simulated threat attacks are a separate add-on, not bundled in the base subscription. SecurEveryone includes live phishing scenario walkthroughs in every session at no additional charge.
At 100 users, Curricula's estimated pricing (~$4/user/month) runs $4,800/year. SecurEveryone's Business tier is $900/year flat with a live instructor. At 50 users, Curricula costs $2,400/year; SecurEveryone is $900/year. Curricula has no published pricing — all estimates are based on available review data.
For actual skill transfer — yes. The research on behavioral change in training consistently shows that interactive formats with real-time Q&A produce better outcomes than passive content consumption. Curricula's cartoons are engaging; SecurEveryone's live coaching is effective. If compliance completion is your only goal, Curricula works. If you want people to actually change behavior, live coaching wins.
Pick one — no reason to pay for both long-term. If you want live coaching, start with SecurEveryone. If you need an LMS-based animated content library for compliance documentation and you already have Drata, Curricula may work. But there's no scenario where paying for both makes sense.
