The BEST platform to learn cloud technologies
What do you like best about the product?
certification paths, lab playgrounds, and instant terminals. Acloudguru courses are pretty neat and to the point. All courses have hands-on labs included. After merging with Linuxacademy they have become the only online cloud training provider anyone would want to subscribe to!
What do you dislike about the product?
lab playgrounds don't give access to most offerings. updates to certification courses are slow. After merging with Linux academy, content seems to be split. courses from Linux academy are a bit different compared to acloudguru. I wish there's an option to select only acloudguru content. Pricing is now very different after merging with LinuxAcademy. I expected to get cloud playgrounds with my premium subscription. But, its cheap only for users of LinuxAcademy
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it to pass Az-900, AZ-204, AZ-104, AZ-400 certifications. I have passed AZ-900 and I am about to take AZ-204 soon. I am confident that I can crack it.

A Cloud Guru has provided me with the opportunity to learn more about and experiment with the cloud.
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best things that I like about a cloud guru is how they expose hands-on labs that the student can work with without having to spin up their own cloud environment.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the lectures are a little theoretical, and the price for the service has increased since I first started using it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am trying to upgrade my cloud skills and gain some AWS cloud certifications.
I have become more aware of how things are done on the cloud, and this has helped me out immensely at work.

One of the best learning platform for cloud
What do you like best about the product?
Domain knowledge of trainers and breaking down concepts into easily understandable chunk so everyone xan digest them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough real world implementation/examples
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using it to learn cloud to aquire new skills and also to keep updating them
Professional, thorough, and up-to-date.
What do you like best about the product?
Great instructors and examples. The availability of sample scripts to accompany the video lessons is very helpful. The ability to use AQC's cloud instances for studies saves a lot of money instead of creating the same resources in the cloud and paying for them. I like the "AWS This Week" newletter/video and others (Azure, etc.) to stay informed of changes to the offerings of cloud service providers and also learn the importance and application of the new servieces. The newsletters also imform you of deprecaterd services and suggested impacts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not a fault of ACG, but cloud service offerings change extremely frequently that requires frequent revisits to the lessons to check for updates. Cloud service providers introduce new abilities almost daily so a newsletter/video such as "AWS This Week" from ACG helps keep you up to speed on the most recent developments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I initially joined ACG for AWS familiarization and certification but have stayed for training in additional cloud services providers and certifications.
Perfect for preparing for a Cloud Certification
What do you like best about the product?
Practical labs, nice certification courses, cool learning paths. The instructures are very skillfull. I like also the periodical updates, games. A cool way to make training an habit. Most Instructors are very motivating. The quality of courses and resources is excellente
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some outdated course, the learning paths may also be a bit restructured. A couple of "legacy" (from Linux Academy) instructure are a bit "slow", but acutally no problem since there is enough material to choose form. The organisation of the resources may be done a bit more structured (or differently structured) to allow a better way to find it. I have still not have really understood how to best contribute. I follow the courses but little interactions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Certifications, updated skills set. Practical experience on topics I haven't touched on the job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it! Perfect to acquire a (AWS) certifications. Easy to use and very helpful also for acquiring day to day skills. I have done 6 AWS and one Linux certification with it. Use labs, practice often. Make training an habit! Choose your path and follow it. Some lesson can be seen at multiple speed.
Great courses with hands-on labs for practice.
What do you like best about the product?
Short video lectures explaining key concepts with practical examples and a corresponding lab helps to put knowledge into practice. Courses led by different instructors provides a different perspective of the underlying technology.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some courses do not have lecture slides provided in pdf format for later reference.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To understand best practices for server administration, automation, and troubleshooting.
Foundational knowledge of cloud concepts provides a great starting point to get familiar with cloud technologies.

Long time user of A Cloud Guru, haven't found anything better
What do you like best about the product?
The delivery of the content is accessible and interesting, while remaining professional and trustworthy. They have made a number of new features over the last couple of years that have really enhanced the learning opportunities for its students.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the courses a couple of years ago were a bit dry and appeared pitched at a more technical audience. They have since replaced those courses however.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Completely reinvigorated my career. Opened new opportunities and avenues for me, to implement in my current role and future potential roles.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I use a number of learning platforms for various tools and training, A Cloud Guru is in my opinion the best cloud training provider out there for those new to cloud or want to level up.
I couldn't have pivoted to AWS without ACG
What do you like best about the product?
Pricing, content and material outside of just certification training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Content is always changing, not always for the better. For example, I prefer the older cloudformation training and python training from 2018 more than the current courses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have attained no less than 5 AWS certificates based on ACG training courses. DVA,SOA,DOP,ANS,SCS. I have also increased my knowledge in CloudFormation, Python and AWS (boto3), serverless framework.
High ROI if you want to learn about public cloud
What do you like best about the product?
Since starting my ACloudGuru one year ago, I have done 4 certifications, greatly increasing my knowledge on public cloud. It is easy to keep motivated and learning, because acloud guru has great content, neatly organized, up to date and easy to consume. Last but not least, the forums are helpful to clarify doubts and questions - the teachers and other students are happy to help you. Highly recommended!
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see Acloud Guru to invest more in hybrid/multi cloud courses and other common orchestration platforms, such as, RHEL OpenShift, Terraform, Ansible
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Increase knowledge on public cloud, acquired multiple certifications on 1st try
AWS Full Content
What do you like best about the product?
The AWS courses have more elaborated content than the official guidelines, with tests and hands on labs so you can learn for the certification.
What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe have more exams closed to the one in the certification.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
More content, more explanations, better understanding of the certification (SAA)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Best to fast learning AWS Certifications, I always suggest to begin with this platform or at Udemy so my colleagues can learn far more from the official courses.
