Great for hands-on training, although the interface has a few quirks

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
I have used Microsoft Hands-on Labs for both Sharepoint and Power Platform instructor-led training. The labs allow me to work in real-time in a Microsoft environment alongside an instructor to get real-time feedback. There are also usually scenarios and instructions alongside the lab to tell me what to do and where to go.
Pros and Cons
  • Actual Microsoft environment to play around with
  • Instructions alongside
  • Ability to save a session so you don't lose work
  • Copying and pasting can be clunky
  • Sometimes the instructions are not accurate
  • For some Microsoft tools, it requires you to create a temporary account, which takes some time and is time-consuming
  • Have to remember to save or you will lose your environment
  • May not be the most user-friendly to initially start
Likelihood to Recommend
The Microsoft Hands-on Labs were great for training when working alongside an instructor. They would show things on their screen, and I would work alongside with a real environment. Being able to actually use the environment and interact with it was more preferable than just a straight lecture. It allowed me hands-on practice.
Most Important Features
  • Real-time feedback with a Microsoft product
  • Instructions on the side so you know where you are
  • Ability to copy and paste the text into the application (it's a little clunky but it works)
Return on Investment
  • Has made training more efficient and is better for learner retention

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We used it internally for training and education purposes.
There were monthly training sessions, content for certificate preparation, and best sales and leadership practices.
Pros and Cons
  • The platform was simple
  • It did what it needed to do
  • In my opinion, there was nothing impressive or exciting about it
  • I found the interaction to be low and boring
  • It was no different than any other education platform
Likelihood to Recommend
Internal security training or for internal knowledge sharing on tools used
Most Important Features
  • Knowledge sharing
  • Training
  • Raising awareness
Return on Investment
  • I think it has a positive impact in having a platform to train employees
  • I don't think the cost might be worth it given that the content is super dry
Alternatives Considered
I think Udemy is really superior as a platform, people create super high quality courses that get employees up to speed in days.
The platform has a web and mobile app and has taking notes functionality that can be exported.
