Really helpful to change my career domain

  • June 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I liked the way it starts each course from a very basic explanations to be understandable for beginners like me and the huge community of people who helps each other to solve a problem whenever a student got stuck in any point of their learning process.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only disadvantage of this program is not all the courses are beginner friendly, the program has to be design by understanding the student's mentality. I shared this based on my experience, I enrolled in React Nano-degree and in some lessons the instructor didn't even mention why the concept is used for this problem, at that time I got confused and relied a help to mentor, he too sometimes didn't even mentioned the exact usage of that concept. that is so frustrated to my learning process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before joining that Nano-degree I don't have any practical knowledge, Once I finished the projects I got more practical experience as like experienced developer who worked on that technology for more than two years.
I received a discount on my next purchase of a Nanodegree program for writing this review.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If someone whats to learn the basics of some latest technology it is the best place to get started, the only drawback of this site is the expensive Nano-degree program, It would be better if they reduce the price of those program based on countries they everyone who have the thirst to learn new technologies will be able to enrolled on those courses.

Wide variety of hands-on Programming, Data Science and AI related courses and certification

  • June 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easily digestible bite size learning format, mixed with many hands on exercises and a larger exercise at the end of each module. Given I'm working, this is very helpful for slotting the learning into the pockets of available time I have.

Concepts are also explained simply, making the material easy to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
Communication was only available via a Slack channel when I did my certification. Though reviews were provided for each of the end of module assignments, there wasn't much mentorship beyond that. Having more suggestions on what would be good practice in real life work situations and projects would be helpful.

Also, certifications were more costly compared to other e-learning sites, and early completion of the material had no impact on cost savings then. Believe that has changed now with the monthly pricing model.

I received a discount on my next purchase of a Nanodegree program for writing this review.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I had a specific use case of brushing up on my skills on market tools like Alteryx, which the course was focused on. This helped me as I was starting a new role and required extensive use of the tool, and I wouldn't be able to get structured training, with such a long free trial license without joining the course.

Sophisticated learning platform for tech subjects

  • June 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The structure of video lectures along with relevant quizzes can make student master the material well. In addition, the homework instruction is always straightforward and it is challenging and rewarding to complete all homework. The feedback for the homework is always prompt and helpful, which makes me easy to going through the material fast.

Another thing I like about Udacity is that its videos are all short and are easy to go through. This feature can help student more easily gain a sense of achievement from a higher number of checks for completed videos.


Please note that I received a discount on my next purchase of a Nanodegree program for writing this review.
What do you dislike about the product?
- Maybe it would be great to have more advanced stuff in the class material
- The homework can have less provided code and let students do more for each question.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
AI with trading. I learned basic concepts in AI and trading, which will be beneficial as I pursue a trading career.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to finish the course as soon as possible to save money

Learn new skills or improve existing ones with real world projects

  • June 29, 2019
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Udacity is a great place to level up your technical training or acquire new skills and stay current with technology. There are numerous free courses if you have the discipline to be a lifelong learner. They also offer Nano-degrees or certificate programs. These are not free, but based on the ones I've completed are worth the money for your efforts. The Nano-degrees require completion of real-world projects that can help build your portfolio as well. Udacity also provides a career portal to assist students.
What do you dislike about the product?
My biggest complaint about the AI Programming with Python program was there was no communication with the instructors and never once did I get a response from an email inquiry about the course. Udacity does however have a Student Hub and a Knowledge based platform where students can ask questions and communicate with other students to help overcome problems during the course.

Also note that Udacity recently made changes to the Nano-degrees by hiring mentors to work with a small group of students to help them stay on track and complete the program. As a disclaimer, I have not done a Nano-degree under the new format, but this appears to be a positive step in helping students and improving communication.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In the interest of transparency, Udacity requests that I add the following to my review. "I will receive a discount on my next purchase of a Nanodegree program for writing this review." With that out of the way, I was glad to write the review and plan to take more courses with Udacity as they are challenging and skill specific. I learned progressive web app development, improved my JavaScript skills and began learning the fundamentals of AI with Python. All good skills for todays developers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You must be disciplined whether doing the free courses or working on a certificate program. The Nano-degrees are challenging and if you are not certain you have the prerequisite skills follow the recommended courses prior to enrolling.

You can learn new technology skill step by step and find further research resource. So you can study yourself after graduating from some programs.

And the price is high.
