A great way to improve your skillset over lunch
What do you like best about the product?
With cloud academy I have found it very easy to jump in and out of learning content making it ideal for lunch breaks or short bits of downtime through out the day. The video content is backed up by strong hands-on lab sessions that allow me to apply what I've seen in the video content without requiring a local setup meaning I can follow along on my tablet or non development environments.
The hand-on labs are really easy to follow along with keeping me engaged in learning the content. They make it easier to see how I will apply the knowledge to a real life scenario.

What do you dislike about the product?
As an individual user I don't have many dislikes for the platform, everthing I've expected from the platform has been availabe.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My main goal in using Cloud Academy was to upskill in devops. The content that has been available has helped me smash these goals way sooner that I was expecting. When looking to do certifications the exam prep and hand-on labs are a great feature. Over competitors I found that what I learn with Cloud Academy is sticking much better and I have the confidence to apply the knowledge in real scenarios much faster
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I have been recommending Cloud Academy to colleagues, if you're looking for learning content for anything to do with cloud providers such as AWS, GCS, Azure or if you're looking to upskill in the devops area then I have found Cloud Academy the best place to do it after using multiple other content providers.
Pretty good for preparing for Azure Exams
What do you like best about the product?
I took only one learning path so far on Azure Solution Architect technologies. The good thing is that it covers most of the topics of the exam and has self-tests after every course plus the certificate preparation exam. I passed the exam I was preparing to, and I can attribute a big part of my success to the Cloud Academy courses.
What do you dislike about the product?
Endless introduction + summary videos aren't helping. I'd rather have in-video or after-video quizzes to check if you remembered the content (not just one at the end of the course, but every video). This is how Coursera does it for some courses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting Azure Certification
Keeps you on track with training path
What do you like best about the product?
We can plan the course accordingly and apply it to the timer, so that cloudacademy keeps track of it all and send notifications about the path
What do you dislike about the product?
Usually, the quality of the video class session automatically changes based on the internet, which would sometimes cause to load
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have signed up to cloud academy to get my certification, which allowed me to get hybrid cloud experiences
Great learning platform with wide range of topics. Modern look and behavior.
What do you like best about the product?
Cloud Academy servers wide range of topics. I could find a lot of interesting topics on the platform. You can specify your weekly or monthly progress. Videos are in high quality. I like hands on exercises that are very involving. Up to date topics on the platform. When you successfully complete the course and pass the exam you gain a nice diploma. I could join some free online webinars last year for free. You can also learn using mobile application while you are travelling. Someone else like your manager can assign you courses. You can set your deadline and the amount of time to study per week and then track your progress, it's very motivating.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love to see more hands-on exercises than only watching videos. Some courses are sometimes repetitive. Platform should better advertise new courses. They should introduce e-mail notifications about courses based on your interests. Some courses are very time consuming. Some questions on the final exam are very difficult to answer.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improve my knowledge on wide range of topics. Break from regular work to learn something new. Update your current knowledge or address new questions that arise during your work. You can work on your personal goals during the year together with your manager or team leader. You can share your course list with your coworker so you can both learn at the same time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Search for interesting topics that would fit to your needs. This is a bit similar to Pluralsight platform.
Cloud Academy course was really fantastic and help me to gain knowledge.
What do you like best about the product?
First of all i would like to say that course content were very good, instructor were really good and explains everything very nicely and hands on lab really help to gain practical knowledge and helps individual to implement things side by side . Quiz really help me to check what I have learned from the course and also help me to boost my confidence level. Quiz covers question from basics to advance and checks individual knowledge and understanding about the subject. Cloud Academy also send learning remainders through email to help individuals to be focused and motivated towards there learning and never miss there learning. My overall experience was very good and I would like to thanks cloud academy for helping me to gain knowledge. I would be very happy to continue learning more courses and adding feature to my knowledge.

As of now i don't feel any dislike , aws cloud videos are good with hands on lab to feel practically while learning. In addition to videos and labs Quiz were really helpful tp check the concepts what we learn throughout the course.

Content is well organized so that it helps the people who didn't have prior knowledge of AWS
What do you dislike about the product?
Some topics can be splitted into further smaller sections to help students to focus
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Encyclopedia for all technical and non technical trainings
CloudAcademy has the right balance of details with hands on labs.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the way courses in cloudacademy are structured. You can start a pursuit for a certification or a skill and the course structure allows you to progress in well defined manner. Additionally, if you want to only do a few modules from a course just as a refresher you can do that too. I like the length of the videos as well. Most of the videos are not very long and are made with average attention span in mind.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see more courses on software development and coding. The courses are focussed on cloud in general, however, building applications require writing code and having courses on various programming languages will definitely be a big plus.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The cloud landscape is changing rapidly and as a solutions architect I find it hard to keep up with the new products. CloudAcademy videos help me tremendously in this endeavor. Additionally, the best way to learn is to do hands on. Having some defined tasks in hands on labs and hands on challenges is the perfect way to learn by doing.
