It's really good. Better than most of the introduction courses. It would be great if you can recommend the follow-up courses :)

I learned a lot and will really benefit from this since more and more companies move up to Azure or amazon's cloud solution
Reasson I'm not giving it 5 stars is because I would really have like the course to cover a bit more about domains and virtual networks so that we can join the VM's to domains and activate the AD for Excaple. also covering the Azure AD would have been nice too
Otherwise great course man thanks a lot! :)

Uses older version of Azure, it refers to MSDN account but on Azure webpage its now called Visual Studio account. Also the download section on the .NET SDK was not clear, couldn't follow what I needed to download. I do have VS 2015 so hopefully I already have everything I need. Just need to update to newer versions of Azure. SQL Database section has changed also.

Awesome class on Microsoft Azure Cloud Computing. The instructor does a great job of explaining things and walking you through how to accomplish the tasks required in the demo. A++

The information is out of date and extremely difficult to follow along while attempting the exercises. This was a complete waste of my money. I would not take another course from this individual unless I heard they had updated their material to keep up with what Microsoft has done in the last year or more.

Early days but so far so good. Video quality is not very good and some screen shots are blurred which could be improved.

Overall this course provide quick overview of azure cloud computing. Instructor is very knowledgeable and showed several exercises during class. It would be great if Instructor had walked through menu first. Also keeping computer in English will be good as some sections were in Spanish and I could not read menu in your computer screen. Finally, if instructor asks students to do lab while pause recording and showing instructions, it will give hands-on lab flavor as we know things better when we do it ourselves. Thank you for the great course.

Good course, it does covers the basic of cloud technology but I feel it lacks the information on how to solve real time problems that small, medium or enterprise companies face when starting up or moving up to Azure cloud from where they currently are. Also, part of my rating is due to fact that I haven't received any response from instructor for the questions I asked in Q&A section. I hope all is well.

It is a good course for coverage, but it needs to be updated to reflect Microsoft's new Azure portal. I should also note a heavy emphasis on DevOps, so it may not be ideal from the point of view of ITOps.

Not much content in each lecture, but the topics are good.
It's OK for a basic overview with some examples.

Great intro course, but you have to be able to read Spanish for parts as while the instructor presents in English, a majority of the screen shots and video is not in English.

The course covers many subjects superficially. The course also lacks quizzes and exercises. I also think that the use of text during the lectures could facilitate the learning. The use of only voice and video leaves the students without reference points to deal with this subject after the lectures. There is also the need to update the video with the new interface.

This is an excellent start to someone who may not be completely familiar with using the Azure services provided by Microsoft. A good introductory course that will lay the foundation for future courses I am sure. I was very pleased with the way that this course was delivered and the instructor was very easy to understand, which is not always the case with online learning resources.
Clearly, the instructor has put in a lot of effort to make this course easy to understand. A lot of material is covered being that this is an introductory course only. If you have any interest in using Microsoft Azure I recommend you check this course out, it will definitely not be a waste of your time.
