Es un curso genial para aquellos qué quieren aprender más sobre un Soporte Técnico, aprendí cosas qué realmente desconocía la existencia como VM qué creí que era mucho mas complicado y no fue así, es una comunidad muy genial y me alegra a ver estar acompañado de ellos/as!

This is probably one of the most helpful, and informative courses I have taken on Coursera! The content was challenging, but not frustrating, and relayed in an easy to understand way for a beginner in the IT field.

HIGHLY recommended for anyone interested in the IT field.

A lot of information. I will be reviewing this course for a while until I fully digest all that information. However, it is highly recommended if you think you want to get into the IT field or any of the computer fields. Thank you again & I am moving on. Wish me luck.

This is a outstanding course. It breaks down the basics of a computer. I think that this course should be put out to the public on youtube. This is just general all around knowledge of a computer that would be helpful to almost anyone that has let technology pass them by!

I have no previous knowledge in computers and yet I am able to successfully understand almost everything that is going on! They explain the lessons very well and go into detail, which is what someone like me needs. This is a great course so far and I'm only half way done!

Excelente en todos los sentidos, considero que los ejercicios y practicas también deberían tener traducción para hacer mas fácil la comprensión de los estudiantes que no manejan el idioma a plenitud. Todo el contenido esta estructurado perfectamente y es super didáctico.

It was very nice that at this time in my life (46 years old), very old for the world of IT, I was able to learn the basis of IT from people that most of them could be have my age. Very informative and easy to digest even topics that seemed hard to grasp at the beginning.

Course is awesome and easy to understand. I had issues in the labs always. Getting connecting to the labs takes 1-2 hours and assignment will be less than 15 min. It really takes up the huge amount of time when a person is a full time working with other house hold duties

Detailed and explicit about what it teaches and where it needs to be. It is also consciously succinct where the information is not yet relevant or needed. The information is clear, and the people delivering this information are, professional, genuine, and nice about it.
