A Cloud GuruReviews of acloudguru.com

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.

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.

Awesome courses, fun projects, with valuable knowledge. And heaps of what you need to grow your skillset, get certified and do your job right...:)

Lots of good content but I would like to see more labs added to the courses. Whizlabs does this for their content and provides lot of labs and it is very helpful.

THIS HAS BEEN A DAMN NIGHTMARE. -Everyone is right. You spend so much time filling in the gaps he never tells you or trouble shooting his issues. This is not a problem with people being unable to follow his directions. The issues come up even after following everything he does exactly. Not only that but it is so out dated. Even the out-dated Linux is way better. ACLOUDGURU IS LITERALLY HORRIBLE. They spend so much time trying to teach you things outside the cloud cert as well, and even those don't run properly. Please save your time and money and use a different resource! Shame on ACG. Fix these issues!

I signed up for a month to month plan this past year (before realizing how outdated the material was) and was surprised to find that they had also signed me up for their annual plan (I am positive there was no user error on my end). So my account was allowed two subscriptions at the exact same time. I tried to get support but no luck. Then, without refunding anything I lost all access to the site. Not to mention that another person in my household also uses the site on their own account, having logged in once on the same computer. Which account you were logged in as changed depending on which page you went to even after making sure to log out time after time. All of this and the UI was terrible, the content was outdated, and the price is a bit steep for even good content. Plus the site is sluggish, with pages 'loading' and then another few seconds before the app actually renders.

The content of the AWS Cloud Practioner is totally irrelevant to what is actually needed to pass the exam. Also, I received a Roal Mail fee to pay, and for my surprise, it was a "gift" that A Cloud Guru sent to me which I am never going to use. It was a RIDICULOUS sock. You guys really need to rethink about your content and your definition of gifts.... I am not sure if I cry or laugh, very disappointing experince.

Passed the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate with ease in August 2020 thanks to their course, lot of content was updated during my month-long study, all seemed up-to-date and since then I noticed a lot of updates in this course since I finished it. I also enjoyed that their was a lot of hand-on labs. The exams simulations were slightly more easy than the real ones, I would recommend purchasing additional exam dumps elsewhere to be sure to pass.
