    If your organization is technical-based and offers its employees different online courses to enhance their knowledge, then A Cloud Guru will be perfect for you. There are multiple courses available from different cloud platforms. The platform is easy to use and navigate and does not require much knowledge. Even if you do not have basic technical knowledge, the courses available in A Cloud Guru are designed in such a manner that a non-technical person will understand the concept easily.

    When government guidelines suggested staff work from home, the home working course was enabled on our user accounts and it created a timely [way] to gather data and react in light of the pandemic. Certain health and safety training is not covered specifically to our company policies in courses, but we have recently received the legionella risk course and are aware of a course builder which could also house this need.

    • More material on other cloud providers GCP, Azure, Huawei.
    • Extend the sandboxes to other cloud providers not only AWS.
    • Include more material for non-technical people, sometimes the sales teams are completely lost in the platform but they would like to learn about it.

    • The reporting system can be initially confusing to use unless you receive training - which we did with our account manager and are now confident in getting reports.

    It would be 10 but for the fact that sometimes, the transition from training to test is not smooth. The user can finish the course but not be prompted to proceed to doing the test. This makes us have incomplete Profiles on the system sometimes. The issue with this is that some people might not receive their DSE equipment.

    The support team of A Cloud Guru is quite quick. There are scenarios where A Cloud Guru was not working in my organization. We reached out to their support team and they quickly resolved the issue. Also, if any individual is facing issues accessing A Cloud Guru, their support team is quick to resolve the issue.

    The main differentiator was the contents as we were interested in a cloud platform other similar platforms did not have the below: it is very good to establish cloud learning development plans and then track them and manage them for the team. The platform supports learning tracks, exams, and sandboxes with all major cloud providers guarantees that you don't get an accidental charge as a result of [the] testing and exploring the cloud
