Amazing web-tool for data visualization for Beginners!

  • March 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
A free/inexpensive mode of online learning. Great, concise videos aided with parallel practice sessions. A useful hands-on tool with pre-loaded language packages. I find it very convenient to just log in and use it anywhere I like.
What do you dislike about the product?
After few practice exercises, there is a call for payments but it is not undermined by the pros we have for Datacamp. One gets whats worth with free and then with payment, one can explore more. I wish there was a student's discount or package for a year.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Data dimensionality reduction approaches and data viz tutorials help me solve my exploratory data- analysis problems which are generally time-consuming. One can make publication quality graphs too using ggplot and they are particularly useful to learn when you have multiple variables. Our group benefits a lot from various tutorials.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool to learn quick applications of many languages and Data Viz skills!

If you commit...

  • July 12, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I think DataCamp is great. The lessons are relatively intuitive and the UI is top-notch. If you can commit to putting enough time in per day I think you'll be coding in no time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Handling errors actually works pretty well compared to some other courses I've seen but I think there's always room for improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Learning python bit by bit instead of jumping head first into a project.

Great way to learn R and python

  • April 10, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the interface. It felt like you were actually coding and that made it real
What do you dislike about the product?
It was hard to devote time to it. There is an app now. But only the beginner courses I already did were on there. It is expensive but I had a discount code
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Learning R and python for graduate school/career
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely use! Just be motivated.

Great product, great team.

  • March 07, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Great concept and product, great scope of courses. Extremely supportive team also to the smaller fish like us.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would have linked my github account for networking, but I am not willing to give r/w access for no reason. Minor issue though. Hard to find anything to dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Onboarding new employees / student assistants
- opportunity to improve on advanced topics (it's hard to find courses for advanced and expert users)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with a free trial, to see if DataCamp is for you at all. If can imagine using DataCamp... do so !
Get a subscription for 1 or 2 persons (or ask for trial of the more advanced courses) and really test these more advanced courses. It's easy to create a good beginners' course, but hard to find really helpful expert courses. Compared to openEdx or coursera it's much less of a degree / certificate kind of tool. Contact the support if you have any questions!

Easy way to learn data science - even at lunch break

  • January 29, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The product is easy to use, simple concepts explanation designed to go from simple to complex things. The app can be used anywhere to learn basics of Python programming, I even used it at lunch break while waiting for my food order. The variety of topics is expanding every week and the website contains helpful cheetsheets for easy refresh of the key libraries.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the introductory courses was crashing the app on the assessment part. Hopefully, that little glitch will be fixed soon.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I learn analysis technics that can be handy in my day to day analytic tasks. The users can learn different ways of analyzing the data using R or Python.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with the trial, especially if you have previous experience and need to check if the available courses are right for you. If you have MSDN subscription, you can use it free for 3 months.

Excellent service to learn applied data science using R and python

  • January 04, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Courses that focus on data science in specific areas, split into bite-sized chunks that easy to digest. Courses focused on applied use.
Great introductions in using R and python in specific areas with heavy usage of statistics and machine learning like statistics in finance, natural language processing.
Also nice introductions to practical aspects of using popular libraries in R and python, as well as supporting technologies like Git in data science and SQL.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of courses covering fundamentals: linear algebra, fundamental machine learning algorithms.

Not enough social aspects, no options on guided learning, 1-1 and project reviews.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Learning new tools, software libraries and applications of R and Python in various areas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Excellent service for those who want to learn how to apply R and Python in a real-world areas like financials analysis or visualization; or for data analysts who want to keep updated with latest techniques, libraries and tools.

I would not recommend for newbies in data science, or for those with no or rudimentary programming skills.

Great way to learn how to use data science to improve Case Study & Applied Finance modules

  • December 30, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The community hub where there are tons of tutorials from the best & brightest, it's easy to connect with people you can learn from in various specialties. For people who didn't get their undergrad in "tech" related fields of study, this has been a big help when using data science to break down financing modules and cleaning up data to make our case studies more impactful.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far nothing but we are still exploring the modules and topics we wouldn't personally use off the bat.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using Data Camp to address some of the lag that our staff has when it comes to tech in our research and analysis work. We look forward to using the DataCamp tools.courses as our work progresses and expands.

Combines video, written narratives, code examples, and coding assignments.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too much emphasis on video of instructor.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Online learning and instruction.

You can from your own pace, great resources and an affordable price.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a knowledge ceiling, this is tailored mostly for beginners and intermediates. Advanced skills may not benefit much.

Affordable price for outstanding training

  • December 29, 2017
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
From an end-user perspective, it it really intuitive and visually appealing, as well as the usual perks from every MOOC available on the Web.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing can be a bit steep, compared to other options like Coursera or EdX.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Courses on R and other data science programming are very theoretical. With Datacamp, you get to practice right there.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a go, test it for a drive. It is worth the experience in terms of practicing your learning skills.
