It's a good intro to Data Analytics, however there are a lot of materials which are very very broad and which don't bring so much value.

The narration went a little too fast when there were many new words, for example, lists of specific tools. Otherwise it was great!

The Course Price is not worth it as per the content involved. Either the price need to reduce or the content should be valued up.

Decent for a first Introduction. I have to say the "viewpoints" and stories from people who have worked with Data was helpful
