Maybe some lessons was a little boring because the .ppt with so many text, also some of them have not english subtitles, only chinese. But it was a great course in general.

Special thank you to the instructor: John Christopher. I really enjoyed the course and I learnt a lot from the entire course and simulations. I highly recommend this video and that people can watch more training videos from John Christopher.

Course was great. Good Simulations as well. I would have like to see more content though, especially since the MS-101 exam is quite beefy on the Compliance side of things. So I would have really liked to see more content on the compliance part of it.

Just passed the MS-101. I found the contents of this course to be useful although not overly detailed. I'd say the course alone is not enough to get through the exam. I read through the official Microsoft Learn content, and took several practice tests. I also work with M365 daily. Not a bad broad overview of relevant technologies, but absolutely dive deeper into all topics covered in this course before taking the exam.

Getting in-depth knowledge of 365, Would like a brief session on part of troubleshooting process Or certain scenarios where specifically one can have brief knowledge about the daily routine troubleshooting process. The basic knowledge on the aspects of each criteria is well explained. yet a lot to learn further, if someone to deep dive in.

This course is an excellent introduction to the topics covered by the MS-101 exam. It gives a good general overview and shows the basics of configuring many of the features covered. It's clear and concise. However, having failed the MS-101 exam once already (before I took this course) I can confidently say that this course will not prepare you to pass. The exam focuses on the much more in-depth settings, procedures, and facts that this course does not begin to touch.

Absolutely great content and i love the way how Chris explains it all for someone who is Novice and thats what is most important when you do not know who the audience is going to be. Much appreciated and highly obliged

I'm specifically studying for the MS-101, not the 100. This course has a lot of MS-100 material that I don't need. Also, after purchasing the practice tests from Udemy and study material from another site, this video course did not highlight much of the material that is in the practice tests. I feel like the stuttering could be a lot less, which would make it easier to take in the knowledge.

As usual, a great course from John. Very well explained, with good real life demos and surprisingly up-to-date, given that Microsoft will retire the MS-101 exam in July 2023. A great Thank You and keep doing such a good work

I found it interesting and not overloading, a simple graphic description with narration really drove the point through

Put classes that show the configured items in action. eg: if you create a retention policy, then show it how it works in real by creating policy for 1 day and then how document gets deleted.

Course is good to have a basic understanding what topics the MS-101 exam will include but is not sufficient for passing the exam. To pass the exam you would need to do deep dive into these topics and microsoft documentation.
