Okay, where do I start from? I kept data at home where my weaknesses are. I kept going over them with repetitions and researching them through over materials. My score is between 820-875/900. (Pass rate is 650) I bought the premium study, which is an e-book and practice tests, (unlimited) where you can see where you need extra help, at the end of the TEST exam, you get a full break down, of the questions you were asked and the ones which you got wrong, I though that's brilliant! The actual exam is 650-900, pass rate. I took the exam and failed, I was coming across questions that I had zero Knowledge about, where were these questions on my practice exams? I have never encountered before. Now, if I made a mistake, I hold my hands up and take full responsibility but there was nothing I could have done differently. Someone that is getting 876 (Personal best) to a failure with 556, It just doesn't make sense. I even have the data to back up my claim. I will never ever again use CompTIA!!!

I took the Network+ exam in a learning center and passed with an excellent score in just 30 minutes. Two months later, they invalidated my certificate without providing a valid reason. Initially, they claimed remote software was running on my computer, then they said it was because I didn't use my own PC. Now they're questioning the validity of my score with no real explanation. They are forcing me to retake the exam, but I can't schedule it because I already took it. Communication with the security department is a joke. They have some indian people using AI to write their emails because their English is bad. But these same people are telling you how to interpret the CompTIA agreements. A joke of a company.

Choose othe providers if you are not from USA.. the renewal process for certification is extremely rigid and painful. It doesn't allow payment for PayPal account overseas, you have to vpn into their store to be voucher which you will have problem checking out and be led to another global store you can't even find what you need. It keeps bringing you in rounds, wasting alot of time with slow responding customer service. This is a classic good example of a company that doesn't care about their members but just out to grab your money .. complacency and arrogance at its best

After hearing what you have done to LTT and NetworkChuck, I will never take any courses/exams with you. You've lost a customer and many many more once this comes to light. I hope you've had a good run and made yourself plenty of money to help fight your cause.

Out of date useless cash grabbing scheme and no one should rely on it to hire someone

Absolutely horrible experience. Can't even log in. Very, very carefully rest my password, no password manager, just straight copy-paste. "Login as XXX failed. Please try again." Ok, maybe my account was deleted? Try to create account. "Email address already associated with a login." Ok, cool, I guess I'll get my certs from somewhere else.

Good evening, After two months of preparation for the CYSA+ exam, I purchased (order #5421155) a voucher to schedule the exam for September 1, 2024. However, when attempting to book my exam, I encountered a 500 error stating that my access to the Pearson VUE website is restricted, 'Your access to the Pearson VUE website is restricted at this time. This could be due to a variety of circumstances, including past payment issues, etc.' Despite trying multiple devices, the issue persisted. This situation has caused significant stress and frustration. Initially confident and prepared, I am now feeling anxious and unready due to this unforeseen technical issue. I tried again on September 2, 2024, but the problem remains unresolved. I have lost nearly three days and am no longer confident about taking the exam. I request Pearson VUE address this issue by providing a complimentary exam voucher for a future date to compensate for the time lost and the stress caused. Thank you for your understanding and assistance. Best regards, Eric Bailey USMC Veteran

I have taken 4 tests to obtain my 3 Comptia Certifications, A+, Security+, and Net+ (twice). 3 of them were done through a testing center through my school and 1 was online through PearsonVue. My experience with PearsonVue testing was good, I elected to take it at 9pm at home and it only took me about 10-15 mins for the queue and pretest setup. For my A+ and Sec+, I used college class material to study and what they provided to the teachers cover 90% of the questions that i got on my tests. For my second Net+ exam, I studied using the CertMaster Questions and Study Guide Bundle that I bought off the website and it helped as it increased my score from my first attempt of 632 to my passing of 785. The questions on the Net+ were essentially the same as what i studied, just slightly worded differently and the PBQs were easy. Only issue I have with the tests is that A) they included questions that dont count towards your score but they dont identify them so you could waste essential time on questions that dont matter what you put and B) They dont tell you what questions you missed, just the topic, like you dont have to share the correct answer but I would have like to see just the exact question so I can figure out if i missed the 50/50 questions.
