It was easy, clear and somewhat precise, though I wished that it would be in much greater detail; as in commands usage.

It would be very useful if you are brand new to it support. If you have some experience it could be a little redundant.

Course was great and easy to follow, however, constant issues with the labs and grading really drag down the efficiency

Learned a ton, but I wish the week-end tests were more like the final, without holding your hand as you go through it.

Course was fine, only deducted a star due to a couple hiccups in Qwiklabs, that delayed my completion of the course.

It was an awesome experience, but you should include more complex practical labs like the final one in between too.
