I felt some of the labs didn't necessarily match the most important parts of the content, and it felt maybe rushed a bit as well. At times during this certificate, I feel it's possible to recognize the information we certainly will need and distinguish it from the information we might need to re-google later in case it comes up, but that was more difficult for the 4th course in particular. I understand what went on, but it would be difficult for me to replicate it from memory.

Learned a lot, but a lot of the testing was poorly designed. Some questions were so ambiguously worded that two functionally identical multiple choice questions with the same pool of answers had different "correct" answers (incremental backups vs differential backup, for one). The section on Active Directory was too long and detailed for an overview course, and we were expected to understand dozens of new tech terms immediately in context after they were mentioned.

Very minimal hands-on application of the practices demonstrated especially as it pertains to Active Directory. Some videos are too short and gloss over things, some are twelve minutes and far too long without something to follow along with on the side. Feels designed for a separate class as supplemental material with a live instructor giving additional assignments. Gives a general idea of what a sysadmin does, that's about it.

The course itself was full of useful information, and was helpful to my overall development. The material was presented in a way that made it more difficult of absorb, and s have a refocus of core concepts, with more attention paid to getting users ready for the labs, as well as providing more context before dropping them in live environments. As well as some audio issues and dated material, this course could use a touch up.

This was fairly enlightening, however I feel that even this was a bit much for entry level considering System Administration is not an entry level position in any organization. I really feel like this course should go along with the Automation course that was removed from the curriculum in its own certificate. On the other hand, it was a great opportunity for intense learning in a sink or swim type of situation.

I found this course helpful for the content. I think the supplemental reading should be google original content then the links given showing if you get stuck in the real world , here is the resource to solve the problem. Over all the videos can have more visual of important information. I did enjoy the course and I can be highly critical. If your new this gives a great overview of the System Admin Roles.

The lectures were the clear and good explanation, the supplementary reading some of them helpful. The week 5 quize had technical issuse not all questions loading it weasted my times almost 2 weeks . I do not know why Qwicklabs assissments becames optional. I sturggling with operating system. Any way I tried my best to sucesfully finished the system adminstration-IT infrastucture services. THANKS

There were a lot of TYPE-O's that made it difficult to follow instructions and material. LABS didn't always load correctly or freeze and the 'help section' didn't reset or explain but gave a 'cheat sheet' to bypass the issue. I am a beginner who doesn't work much with computers, before or after the course, and will pursue more computer classes for a better understanding of setup and use.

Muy descepcionada con este curso por que a la mitad del curso los subtitulos en otros idiomas desaparecieron en todo el curso, y no tuve mas apcion que ir a buscar traductores externos u otras herramientas, al momento ya van 8 dias y no hay solucion, esto hace que sea mas lento el ritmo de aprendizaje y la cuota mensual igual hay que pagarla para ese pago no hay excusa

Way the material was presented was difficult to understand, and it was quite condensed. I often had to go to other sources to find out what the point was of the material being presented. Single pieces of info, vital to a newby, but well known to a professional, were left out. Stop assuming we are that advanced already!

it was painful to see the lack of concern for spelling, punctuation and grammatical errors. I absorb much more through reading and to see this from a company that is supposed to be all about knowledge. Hire some humans to do some proofreading. There were also a lack of real-life scenarios from which to practice.

Almost too much information here. Especially given the last week is just an assessment. The host of this module is highly knowledgable and is clearly well versed in all of this, but it felt like an onslaught of things i hadn't even heard of until this module. It was overwhelming at points.

This is too hard-cored for a beginner especially there are so many videos and assignments in this course. The subtitles need to be modified as it has lots of mistakes, as a student whose first language is not English, it's not that easy to understand the instructor without correct subtitles.

The exercises they provided in this course NEEDS a lot of revision and editing as they are hard to follow and harder to execute. The topics in this course however are decent as they cover a lot of topics but they are not explained as thoroughly as the previous courses in this specialization.

It was a good course.I wish they were real world example topic and I have learned new topic which I was not aware of but I was looking for in deep topic of Active directory and LDAP which was not covered. But overall the course was up to the mark. looking forward for another topic.

I did like learning more of the System Administration role in IT. Just had a difficult time with some of the graded quizes due to some of the question being a bit vague as far as how they are descripted. Mainly in the final graded quiz. Though I believe that is just me.

The labs were a bit better in this course and didn't move as fast as the other course labs. It also didn't over focus on Linux. The videos are great and the instructors have all been fantastic. The only issue I have is the labs seem to move faster then the videos.

not much in depth work on linux in this course, active directory is an expensive system on windows when you need to account for windows license and CALs. wish there was more on OpenLDAP (slapd) aside from installing it and then going yup its running... end session.

Course was good but many labs like accessing active directory were not accesible.So learnt many things like backing up the data and successfully restoring the data and testing it was useful and to plan for recovery management and write a post-mortem report

Good info, delivery needs work. I felt like on this course there were missing pieces that were removed. Somewhat confusing at times, and I have background in many of these topics. Also, presenter talked too fast, and sometimes wasn't easily understood.

Very informative and Im enjoying the class so far. However, the mentor in this class waves his hands around after every word he says and its really distracting and makes it harder for me to focus on the material. Other wise, its a good course.

I think the content is great and informative, but the lack of graded labs made the course feel less practical for me. The "final project" is short answer and receives no feedback so its really not an accurate estimate of what you learned.

The course's content is good overall but the instructor's poor pronunciation makes it difficult to understand what's being said many times. Also, some of the lengthy explanations in the Active Directory's session could be better formatted.

I found the lecturer's voice very difficult to follow. He had intonations and would pause at points where it did not make grammatical sense. The subject matter is so interesting and he managed to make it boring. Just being honest, sorry.

Windows labs were pretty bad. Latency, disconnections. There was one section where I had done 4/5 of the exercises, and Qwiklabs completely froze. I bailed out, and I got 80% for that section where I was not allowed to complete it
