A Chosen Vendor for Technical Education
What do you like best about the product?
I like ACG's abundance of courses and their easy to follow teaching approach. It uses a series of videos for each course, which is very helpful. In addition to the videos, there are many other job aides that can also be used. Finally, there are some interactive options that are also available in the form of labs to help solidify the learning.
What do you dislike about the product?
There was nothing really found in terms of dislike. From the feedback of users, some of the coursework, particularly around GCP can be a little more robust, and the labs can be improved to help provide a more realistic feel to the learning, but overall, it is a great tool. Our situation is a little bit unique in that we have an additional vendor that is used for cloud education, and because of this, we will have some mixed views among users, but overall, the labs was one of the biggest competition area.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For my organization, we are using it to get our Technology department certified in AWS, and some in GCP as well. By helping our employees obtain their certification, it improve sthe overall quiality of staff, and makes them more effective in the vital work that they are accomplishing, while also benefitting them directly with greater personal knowleldge and skill, even beyond the company.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The A Cloud Guru team is very qualified in their technical learning space and also very helpful to users of their platform. There level of support has been great, and I would recommend anyone to check out all of their programs. Another thing that I would recommend is to use the ACG Introductory courses in Cloud systems, AWS, and GCP, as these are offered even if you don't have a license, which gives you the opportunity to try it before buying it. It is definitely a good opportunity.
A great exam-prep resource
What do you like best about the product?
The content is relevant and is continuously updated as cloud computing evolves.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to find something not to like, but if anything, I'd say the exam simulator is not quite hard enough as compared to the real thing. Some questions are too short and not scenario based enough.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm getting AWS certified. I now have completed two certifications and that is helping me immensely in my job.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try, it's inexpensive and very high-quality.

With the help of reporting stuff in A Cloud Guru, it is very easy for me to make the statistics for my organization every month. I also manage to take some courses through A Cloud Guru and it is very helpful. With my background of non-IT, it was a little difficult for me to start with the training material, but the content was very easy to understand.

There is nothing to dislike about A Cloud Guru. Instead there are multiple things to like about A Cloud Guru.

I have to provide statistics to my team every month based on the individuals progress. With the help of reporting part in A Cloud Guru, it is very easy to analyze and provide statistics.

An individual who wants know about Cloud Products, it is very helpful to use A Cloud Guru courses. Anyone who wants to be an expert in Cloud technologies can be a part of A Cloud Guru.

Excellent platform to get your organization started on cloud learning journey
Great platform, would recommend to anyone beginning their cloud journey.
What do you like best about the product?
Lessons are easy to follow, exam simulator is a great resource, sandbox. The team you guys have there is really what makes this product - they have been incredibly responsive with regard to product input, very flexible in accommodating to our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sandbox timeout - would prefer to keep session or resources for a configurable amount of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overall we are tackling a technical fluency problem with our organization, there's no way we could manage the content as quickly as things change. We have to rely on providers like ACG to keep our people across the different technology areas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When rolling out I would definitely recommend rolling out to small groups in waves (10-30 students per wave) and set up times each week to review content. The accelerator program breaks it up into consumable - definitely worth using.
Great Service! Concise and well delivered
What do you like best about the product?
I had about 5 days to cram and pass the AWS Solutions Architect exam and I passed! It was all because of A Cloud Guru. The content was fast enough and entertaining enough that I could push through it all in just a couple days and they do a great job to review the things they teach you. The other thing is that you really feel like you're only getting the most important content. The SA exam is extremely broad so it can get frustrating, A Cloud Guru helped me focus on what was most important. Everything works as intended, the UI is intuitive, the mobile app actually works, these guys have got it. Totally worth the $30 I paid for the month. Their customer service was even great, I accidentally messed up and signed up for the year subscription and asked for that to be amended, it was addressed painlessly and quickly. 100% recommend.
What do you dislike about the product?
The editing of the videos was kind of rough because you could tell they patch things in to update the material which was actually more comforting than annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had the problem of needing to pass the SA exam in a short period and they totally delivered! I passed my test with about 81% (70% is passing) and it's a tough test.
Simply put - Amazing hands on learning!
What do you like best about the product?
Linux Academy was amazing! The lessons were thoughtfully laid out for users who have some, to no experience at all. The instructors offer very clear, concise, and accurate information. You can tell they're subject matter experts from the very beginning. They offer risk free lab environments FREE as part of your subscription. Linux Academy is an invaluable asset to have for training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing! The site is easy to navigate, videos are clear and the information is presented correctly and accurately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Education for new products/fields of study.
