Really great explanations of the terms and what they mean. The instructor is good at breaking things down to a layman's level.

Very unimpressed by the level of professionalism displayed by the instructors in the courses that I have taken so far. Also, out of date information and sub-par image quality make this feel like a free internet course from over ten years ago. How are you charging people for this?

This is exactly what I was looking for as a developing AD administrator already forming "bad" habits. Im halfway through this course and have learned so much...highly recommend.

A Lot of good information, however, it's missing a critical section IMO - Disaster Recovery. It would sux if the server goes down for any reason and you would have to re-configure everything again. I know I can find this on the web, but I prefer to see how it is done with a pro in action.

This course is a dead-on and is articulated well, another subject to giving me the full scope that entails a Network. Great!, Thanks.

Everything was discussed in detail with good quality video simultions of AD. Also the examples made it easier to understand the scenario.

Good course. I like the way it's arranged in small videos. I sometimes feel like it's running on so many different topics and would split many of the videos to different subtopics. besides that - great course!

Explained everything in an easy to understand manner and I loved the philosophy if I can't go out and do it and understand how its done, then I didn't learn anything.

Course even better , if we had some way setup a lab where we can setup domain controller and few other computer that do domain join. This would help us play around more on the setup and understand more things.
