This was really time-consuming but it was really worth learning. Although in the end, it seems to be very basic things, they would be essential through whatever you want to accomplish in the IT field.

The course had some ups and downs, but it was a good challenge and I did it! I learned so much and I never knew I could do this kind of course. I have gained so much knowledge now from when I started.

Absolutely amazing. There's so much valued content in this course. You have to be willing to continue, even if it's really difficult to order all the vocabulary and the concepts. But completing it is really satisfying.

The Course was amazing. But I would like to say, we need more practice in the course. Actually I have been waiting that we should a TCP protocol configuration e.g. manually entered IP addresses or DNS server addresses.

Very well rounded and detailed course with up to date concepts and bits of history. Quizzes and projects do a good job of testing information retention, and is overall a very well laid out and important course. Thanks!

Very informational about the inner workings of Networking, there was stuff that I knew how to do but did not understand why they worked or how it happened in the back end. Now I know thanks to this course. Recommended.

I never did Networking in my entire carrer I only did Programming, with what I learned in this course I'm now able to do my own projects. I would like to work with Google as a Network Engineer

Thanks to the Google Team

Me encantó el curso, inicialmente te da unas nociones básicas acerca de lo que vas a ver, y luego comienza a profundizar sobre cada una de las partes que componen el tema sin hacerse aburrido, lo recomiendo totalmente

Very informative, I felt like some information on the quizzes or tests was not in the lessons or were not covered enough, I had to go outside the course to obtain more in depth information, which I guess is the point.

Found this a challenging course but the instructor did a good job explaining all of the many aspects of networking. Feel like I definitely need some "hands-on" experience to really make sure I understand the material.

It's a bit of a long course full of videos, but if you manage to get through to the end it's worth it. I really like the video format of learning. This course helped me a lot to remind things that i've learned before

Loads to take in, if you've ever wondered how it all works this is definetly the course for you. Mostly fact based learning, not many usable skills gained, but definatly a great base for fundamental knowledge of I.T.

I am really thankful to Mr Victor. You made this course and many things that I didn't understand in my school time I understand now, above that we go to some detail which is a really amazing experience. Thanks a lot.

Good basics in networking! I knew a little bit about networking before I started this course from doing a little bit in high school but learned a lot more in this course. Very interesting information for the IT age.

Not easy to complete though well worth the effort to do so. Remember to start a very good notebook of questions you have so you can answer them yourself. Pay attention to what is being taught, this is not easy stuff.

Me ha gustado mucho contenido y estoy muy contento de haber completado el curso, pienso que voy a necesitar un poco más de estudios, tiempo y práctica para adquirir más conocimiento detalladamente sobre los tópicos.

This section of the IT Support Professional Certificate offered by Google/Coursera is quite technical, but WOW! Do I feel like I've come such a long way, and everything was explained as simple to follow as possible!

Man this course was so packed with IT course work I think I was a little burnt out. My computer failed but when I recently got it fixed I was able to pick right up where I left off. Networking is pretty interesting.

In depth knowledge, easy yet challenging, everything you need. This course just like part 1 was great. Very informative not to much info. I never felt overloaded and dead lines were manageable even working fulltime.

Definitely one of the best MOOC's I have undertaken so far. The only problem I faced was there were times I really wished that the instructor provided a more detailed explanation of the topic. (example sub netting)

The course is very well structured regarding its syllabus and order taught. I obtained a solid concrete educational background and also a strong basis to my already self taught IT skills.

I really loved this course!

Excellent course. Bunch of concepts but it was enough for an introductory course on computing networking. Basic concepts were introduced in an effective way and some exercises were good to understand those as well.
