Great Training & More Great Things to Come!

  • August 31, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Comprehensive training catalogue with well thought out learning paths which guide you through the process to gain numerous certifications and the required experience with it.
The Production quality of all courses is absolutely brilliant, the training architects really know what they're talking about through years of knowledge
The web application is very well structured and the functionality is well thought out.
The Forums are very useful and the community answers questions well.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of uncertainty around the current merger of A Cloud Guru an Linux Academy, especially in terms of what content will be kept and what will be deprecated.
The older A Cloud Guru courses can be a little too "non-technical" in nature, choosing to skim over the ore technical aspects of te issues.
The number of courses available is still on the small side, but I believe that this will be improved over time, especially with the
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Understanding, implementing, and securing complex hybrid cloud infrastructures
Improving my career prospects through certification and learning.

3 Certs in 2 Months! Thanks ACG!

  • August 27, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
With ACG I was able to earn the AWS Cloud Practitioner, AWS Solutions Architect Associate and the Azure AZ-900 all in about 2 months of study.

The classes are easy to follow and the quizzes and practice test made passing the certification exams almost a shoe in. I really appreciate the easy to learn from zero approach. Ryan Kroonenberg is especially easy to listen to and understand.

I am looking forward to tackling more certs with A Cloud Guru. Probably start hitting the Google Cloud ones next.
What do you dislike about the product?
The AWS SAA-02 class was a little disjointed as the class has changed with the new exam. I did have some difficulties with the completeness of that class and passing. I was able to pass on my first attempt, but I needed some non ACG tests for assist in prepping.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had a challenge for this year to earn at least 2 Cloud based certs for my position in Technical Sales. With A Cloud Guru, I was able to realize this goal easily. Since I work for a SaaS company selling a AWS based product, having the Certs have made my understanding of our product 'under the hood' much better.

This has also made it much easier for me to understand my customers issues and help them to be successful with our product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just do it! As a individual user who paid the premium for a year, It was worth it. Consider how much you would spend otherwise on 'official' classes for cert prep and A Cloud is a bargain.

Also make sure that you follow the weekly updates on the site to keep up with cloud tech as it evolves.

Excellent source of knowledge at the tip of your hands

What do you like best about the product?
ACG is a very friendly platform with a lot of resources to learn about cloud and related technology, it has not only fast and to the point courses they also have hands-on labs and demos. There are a lot of cool stuff to learn in the same place.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a little bit pricy, but they do have a free tier now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The cloud, and specifically AWS evolves fast and ACG updates the content very quickly to keep you up to date. It is a nice and complete platform to learn and to solve problems with the ACG community. And now you have more than cloud stuff, you have OS courses, programming languages courses, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
ACG is growing everyday with latest content and updating existing content, it is the place to learn the awesomeness of the cloud.

Best instruction for cloud bar none.

  • August 25, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The pace and completeness of the instruction is exactly what you need to be successful. They don't waste time with inside jokes, anecdotes or superfluous information.
What do you dislike about the product?
I only wish they had a Roku app so that I could watch the videos on my TV without screencasting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I've been able to architect my own AWS environment. Rarely if ever do my peers or vendors disagree. It really is that thorough.

A Cloud Guru / Linux Academy - the best cloud training. Period.

  • August 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Relevant & continuously updated video lessons on ALL AWS certs along with transcripts, sample tests, study strategies as well as Google certs, Azure, etc -- if you want to learn about cloud and related areas, it's there!
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to have aggregated transcripts for an entire area rather than per video / subset of an area. Also, provide clear version control of lessons that have been updated to ensure the latest content can be found and consumed. Finally, I want to buy replacement swag -- my ACG t-shirt was accidentally bleached... :-/
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm pursuing AWS certs: SAA, SysOps Admin, Cloud Dev Assoc then DevOps & SA Prof. Eventually AI ML & Data specialty and Alexa Skill builder.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Now that A Cloud Guru has acquired and integrated Linux Academy there really is nowhere else that offers the same top-shelf level of cloud training!

AcloudGuru is the best way to learn the cloud

  • August 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
There is so much content and pathways that I know I can learn anything I need to stay relevant in the workforce. With their year subscription price being so reasonable I know I have enough time to learn more than one subject and they are constantly adding newer products and services to stay on the cutting edge.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like a little more humor and it would be nice to see the instructor as I watch the lecture so it doesn't feel like I am just forcing my way through powerpoint slides.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have become AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate certified and also have learned about kubernetes and containers with their kubernetes deep dive. I plan to delve into Azure and GCP when time permits. I am learning these skills because my new employer is look to use at least two of the major cloud providers to provide better services and reliability.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would love to see some Splunk training

Great learning experience without the huge price tag!

  • August 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The courses are broken down in to manageable chunks that make it easier to understand without overloading.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to really dislike at the moment. Just hoping that they expand their Microsoft portfolio of courses particularly around M365, Dynamics 365 and Power Platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Just starting off on the cloud journey so very early days. Am currently looking to see what benefits A Cloud Guru could bring to an organisation that needs to grow and develop it's people in cloud.

A Cloud Guru has been a great help to achieve my certification goals in AWS

  • August 21, 2020
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
At A Cloud Guru I have had access to courses for all AWS certification exams. The courses are very well structured to achieve specific learning objectives. They have almost always good real life examples to strengthen the learning process. The community is also a great help to improve our skills, the forum discussions are great!
What do you dislike about the product?
The information is not always up to date. Although in general they stay in sync with the current version of the exam, I think that more frequent updates with the news from AWS, always recommending the way to act in the exam, would be beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have passed 4 AWS certification exams in the last two years with the help of ACG and I am preparing for the networking specialty exam. It has also helped me in my day to day as a systems and networking engineer working on AWS Cloud.
