An awesome resource for learning the various cloud platforms, and now Linux Academy courses!!
What do you like best about the product?
The content of the training and labs are excellent quality, and are constantly being updated to keep up with the breakneck pace of changes in the technology that impacts user experience with the cloud, as well as Linux. The fact that you learn BY DOING is the best aspect of the material.
What do you dislike about the product?
In these early days of supporting Linux Academy legacy courses, there are some helpful resources missing (such as scripts and links to build packages in Linux). Some of these resources are mentioned in the training, but are not yet available in A Cloud Guru. But we have been assured this is being addressed, so we will be patient as these helpful resources make it into A Cloud Guru.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working on getting entry level Certified Cloud Practitioner certification, and hope to get the first level Linux certification in the near future. These I hope help to be starting points for further more advanced certifications that may help to advance my future career prospects.

Two AWS Certifications Achieved
What do you like best about the product?
Brisk pace for the hands on exercises keeps things moving quickly. Very good at highlighting what points are key for the exam. Forum questions are answered well so you rarely get stuck on something that someone else hasn't already asked and had answered.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few places where the course materials are not up to date with the latest AWS UI changes. You can usually get around it, but there were a couple of times where it was frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Was able to pass the AWS Cloud Practitioner and AWS Cloud Developer on the first attempt.
The best investment I've made in my career.
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility
New features announced including the cloud playground and how well that will enable me to get real experience, hands-on is the way I learn best!

Sometimes they don't keep up with the changes AWS makes, so the 'old' training sometimes does not work with new features/GUI enhancements.

I got multiple cloud certifications thanks to A Cloud Guru.

ACloudGuru Review
What do you like best about the product?
Very succinct and well thought out videos
What do you dislike about the product?
Updates to the lessons can sometimes be outdated
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real world problems and have conceptual understanding of new cloud services
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great place to start learning and has expanded learning services to containers, Linux, and all major cloud providers.
Engaging and the Best Value on the Market
What do you like best about the product?
The balanced mix of lecture and lab. The lectures are short and to the point and followed by a lab to really help the subject matter sink in.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like a list of supplemental courses to the Certificate Course I am taking at the time. If I am working towards a certification, a resource page that easily points me to individual course topics I might have trouble with during the main course.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have received one certification and am working on my second one. The list of discussion question fellow students pose that exists to the side panel in each video is great. It has helped me better understand topics because I have to make a clear and concise answer. These questions also have answers that better help me too.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want something engaging, that will give you the best bang for your buck, sign up for ACG! You can go month to month or pay for the year, (which I have). Basically, the community help, the video and instruction quality, and the labs pretty much ensure you will pass your exam. For some topics I struggle with, I simply watch their Master Class videos to gain more insight and better prepare me for immediate exam needs and future real-world experience.
Inspirational and positive cloud training
What do you like best about the product?
How passionate the trainers are and manner the materials are delivered
What do you dislike about the product?
Some material out of date and could do with more Azure training materials
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building up more professional knowledge of all cloud platforms in order to take more cloud certifications
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try some of courses and be inspired. Try to perform the labs at least once per month - fun and educational!
The Best Place to Learn Cloud
What do you like best about the product?
I have used acloud.guru to earn 9 cloud certifications and am depending on them to help me continue my cloud journey. They’ve even helped me learn other essentials like Python, Vim, Chef, etc. that are key in DevOps, but not necessarily cloud.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have had some technical difficulties that are taking a long time to resolve even after talking with support. Additionally due to the Linux Academy acquisition there are a good number of duplicate courses like Azure AZ-900 that simply existed on both platforms. I’m hoping ACG consolidated these courses together. Lastly, ACG currently focuses on the big 3 providers, which are AWS, Azure, and GCP; but I wish there was content on Oracle, IBM, and DigitalOcean, etc. that aren’t as big, yet still widely used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I’ve been able to cut the operational costs of AWS environments at my company. Furthermore, I’ve used my learning to create extremely complex CloudFormation templates to automate infrastructure in a highly regulated environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you’re pursing cloud certifications from any of the big 3 providers: AWS, Azure, GCP. Then you should purchase an acloudguru membership.
