Before I even watch the video, THM is an unbelievable value for what you get. Especially in the beginning of your cybersecurity education. For $125 bucks, you get penetration testing education that puts you past any entry level / introductory certificates or training. A lot of people online singing the praises of HTB, and they are good at a more premium cost. THM learning paths, and advanced labs are all included in that one yearly price. The learning platform for HTB and their labs are separate, they even separate larger lab environments for a separate cost. THM is made by the community, HTB took $75 million in funding and they will find a way to pay it back. THM has advanced labs In their price, and when they go on sale it's a no brainer.

For the academy and learning modules ive had way more issues on htb with their AD ctfs whereas with THM i was able to be in and testing in 5 minutes For the CTFS THM gets the point for the networks For certs sadly gotta give htb the point cause they are genuinely harder and more useful, they are more recognized by HR

Both are great and so are their discord servers for extra help and assistance. However, as a beginner, I'm on a THM subscription and have finished quite a few modules. Which are all really nice and fun to do. Next to THM, I'm doing some of the free HTB paths to do some more indepth Linux things for example. I love both but for now, use THM most of the time.

TryHackMe is the bomb! I've been hitting it pretty hard for ~ 90 days now. The only bad thing about it is the strict syntax method of some of the answers, shit drives me nuts sometimes.

Hack the box is so good when it comes to course material. I completed the jr penetration tester pathway on THM and then went to the CPTS pathway on hack the box. HTB goes way more in depth in concepts that really solidified my understanding of them. But so far ive found the HTB boxes to be kind of buggy compared to THM. Which has a few times lead to to m wasting time on boxes with things that should have worked but didnt in the moment of attempting

Great video review on both platforms Tyler! 🎉

They seem to be going in completely different directions. HTB is literally trying to gain recognition as not only a cybersecurity lab platform but also a certifying authority in their own right with CBBH, CPTS, CDSA, CWEE, and now a fifth cert that they're working on to go with their new "Active Directory Penetration Tester" role path (ADEE? CADP?) whereas THM isn't trying to offer any certifications or training modules of their own from my understanding, hence their live stream friendliness. To gain industry recognition, you do need to place restrictions on anything that may reveal details relevant to certification material, which is probably why HTB is as restrictive as they are.

i started with Hack the Box and got soo, sooooo frustrated at the beginning but i just never gave up and continued doing Hack the Box and now im quite good at those boxes

HTB has an information security foundations path that has modules like OS fundamentals, intro to networking, intro to cli, etc. I would still consider myself a beginner and so far these seem to be beginner friendly. Would THM serve me even better (as a beginner)? One thing also to mention is that THM student discount only applies to full time students. You can be half time student and still get HTB for $8 / month. Thanks for your review!!

U A highschool is a school in anime called my hero academia. No wonder it's CTF-ish

i think theres a legit demographic for the CTF/puzzle/steganography/spectogram type people who do projects like cicada and ARGs. those people want a space that is similar to that where they can learn to figure that out. I get what you mean though.

Always have problem with THM VPN, while in HTB never had a problem with VPN.

When you dropped your diss on Offsec, how did they react?

As a cybersec content creator I really feel frustrated with hack the box as its parthner program was just trash, no benefits apart from images you can use, no cupon code for followers, no discounts, no swag, nothing and for the limited content you can livestream, retired boxes with no updated vulnerabilities its like you are teaching old and useless techniques (Not all of them but some yes), I have not tried THM and im still married to HTB but still its kinda sad to not have that comunity support from the platform

Also i do love all the great cert designs and swage they create, the holographic pro labs certs, the awesome designs for the CPTS, CBBH, CDSA, etc, are just incredible
