Overall Satisfaction with A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy)

This is used by multiple teams. We use it to train our consultants in cloud to deliver a proper solution to our clients. It also provides a great way to test it with sandboxes. I'm using it for testing some cloud infrastructure for proving to our clients that we are able to deliver a real solution with real examples.
  • Sandbox of each cloud provider
  • Good explanation
  • Good instructor
  • Content
  • Not agile for fixing error in the training.
  • Old courses from Linux Academy are not easy to copy/paste.
  • Not consistent format video format from Linux Academy and ACG.
  • Increasing skills.
  • Increasing visibility to our clients by having a lot a consultant skilled.
  • 0 Bill for testing and demonstration.
I don't know any alternatives to A Cloud Guru. There is a LOT of videos around the web for training ourselves to cloud providers (AWS, Azure, GCP), but none of them are proving us private access to a real cloud platform for practicing during the training. Who else provides cloud access without additional fees?

This is a very good platform for practicing cloud services with the sandbox feature. For example, I'm using it to create a full network and security infrastructure with Terraform on my computer for easy building all the stack from the previous test. If you do not use Terraform (or a tool like that), it's difficult to create over and over the same test because of the 4 hour limit.
