Great content overall. The coverage is really broad which is great if you want to dip into a new topic in cloud computing.

Life changing
Acloudguru made it possible for me to get certified. I'm currently sitting at 5 certs. I was never successful in school but the instruction here really clicked with me.

I was not happy with the service
I was not happy with the service. Most of the labs didn't provide all the
necessary material for me to follow along, such as how to build my own json or yaml templates. Or they may have started the lab with multiple
certain resources already up and running. (Just not well planned or thought out).

Highly untrustworthy business, archaic learning platform
Highly untrustworthy business and archaic learning platform.
Learning platform does not have note taking or bookmark capabilities which are very common on other platforms. You cannot summarize your learning to specific notes.
I had subscription to Linux Academy, AGC acquired Linux Academy and without getting my permission automatically moved my account to AGC and showed it cancelled on Linux Academy. I would never have signed up on AGC myself. I would not trust them again.

Bob,
We are sorry to hear that you were surprised by the migration of your account. Over the last year, our team has done its best to communicate the timeline and process for migration with our Linux Academy customers in hopes of avoiding shocks such as this. We're sorry to hear your experience with A Cloud Guru platform has not met your expectations. While we do not offer the note taking or bookmark capabilities you mentioned, our content team is working tirelessly to continue updating our content. Within the last month, we’ve published seven new courses. We hope you’ll take another chance to learn with us.
Waste of money
Waste of money! I enjoyed Cloud Guru in Udemy; that's why I signed up.
On the Cloud Guru platform poor service and their main focus on how to make you buy more of their "limited offer"
I would not recommend the Cloud Guru platform for this price. I got the annual plan.
With less than half the price of the plan, you can get a better quality platform, register for all aws certs courses and get jon bonse's practis exams.
In short, you can save money and get a better platform.

Tried to sign up using PayPal
Tried to sign up using PayPal. There website just goes into loop back and forth to PayPal and making u start over again. Tried 2 computers and my note 20 galaxy cell all the same issues. Also some broken links on there site. After 2 days of opening support tickets (6) still have not heard from them. Pretty bad as far as industry standard customer support. Use them at your own risk.

A Cloud Guru has been integral in me earning 3 AWS certifications. I have recommended A Cloud Guru to many of my peers. I find the lessons easy to follow and understand. I also like the content outside of certification, that keeps me up to date on AWS's newest offerings like AWS this Week

Content Outdated and Support is no good
As they have bought Linux academy and replacing their courses with their crappy and outdated content. Also many times I have asked question on slack support but there was no reply.
In past Rayn was good on recording AWS-CAA, AWS-CDA but now they are all outdated. Whats purpose subscription when you are not able to use them to pass the exam.
Stay away. better to buy updated single course on udemy rather than their subscription.
They have made linux-academy a horrible site along with their content.

Good content if your only goal is to pass an exam
Some good content, which helped me pass the AWS Solution Architect Associate exam.
The downsides are the cost of membership, slow and clunky site and the content is really focused on passing exams rather than learning the subject in-depth.

Best ROI for training
I have been using Ryan's trainings before him and his brother created the A Cloud Guru site... I'm not big on certs myself, so I don't have any, but the knowledge & practice provided are top tier. Then add the Linux Academy training and you have all the training you need to understand cloud architectures, infrastructures, DevOps... All of it soups to nuts. Great training... Great company... Great people.
