A Cloud Guru Reviews in April 2025: User Ratings, Pros & Cons

Used for the AWS Developer Associate…

Used for the AWS Developer Associate with Exam Tips and exam questions. You stepped up your game for study questions between Solutions architect and the Developer exams. I am leery of using ACG for SysOps because the material appears too outdated since the test has been redesigned for 2021. I will be using Stephane Maarek’s from Udemy.

Great Training Site

I have enjoyed going through different training courses on A Cloud Guru, I would have given you a 5 review but their are always room for improvements. I think it is great, the content of Linux Academy is now part of A Cloud Guru. If you know what you want to learn, then the Learning Paths is a great way to filter out the courses you should really focus on. My problem is trying to stay focus on one learning path since I want to learn a little bit of everything on your wonderful site. Thank ...

You have an amazing service

You have an amazing service. I love the way you have learning paths. Your progress tracker is definitely a winner to keep me on track. Your hands on lab are second to none and your quizzes and exam preps are critical pieces that bring success. Finally open playground set you apart from the competition. What cost you one star is the fact that some content is out of date. I know it's tough to keep everything fresh, but it's critical to passing exams. I am sure this something you can overcome ...

Great Work!

The only reason I'm giving 4 stars is because I think you should have more flexibility with the subscription plans. Here are a few things I have in mind: - Monthly payments - Ability to purchase only the courses you want (I know some of them are in Udemy but it's not the same experience) - Discounts for renewing the annual subscription Other than that, keep being awesome! =)

A great training base to build upon

I've been a customer of A Cloud Guru for a few years now, as a great learning system for AWS architecture and more. Over that time I found that some of the content while a great breadth of knowledge is pretty light in places and needs more detail. It gave me a solid foundation to realize I had to look elsewhere -- and found that specific content, which then allowed me to pass my AWS Solutions Architect Professional Certification. Definitely use A Cloud Guru to begin your cloud journey.

Great experience so far but some content is a little outdated

It has been really great experience so far, the only issue so far as been that some of the content is a bit out of date with how things look on AWS console at the moment which are sometimes a bit confusing. The lesson for booking your AWS exam is also not that useful, because it does not include how to book an online exam and what that entails.

Love the content of the course…

Love the content of the course material, great stuff. It wasn't enough (I likely didn't absorb it well enough) for me to pass the AWS SA Assoc. cert test though. :(

Need more true deep dive contents

I notice there seem to be more of those scratch the surface courses lately. A lot of the true deep dive courses have become obsolete and not get updated properly. The Cloudformation deep dive course for example, the original Acloud one was quite good. Now it has been replaced by a slide reading muppet from Linux academy!

Extremely poor support

Extremely poor support: - poorly conceptually thought through, - poorly implemented, - poorly staffed. It seems the ACG management had never worked in a corporate support / CRM: - basic support principles are foreign to them. That alone overweighs all the good work ACG content creators have done so far. Hence only 2 out of 5. On a 1 to 10 it should be 3.

ACloudGuru Works For Me

I have been in the tech industry for 20+ years and needed to come up to speed on cloud technology. Did some hunting and pecking around the net and one name kept coming up - ACloudGuru. Checked out a couple free videos on the site and I was sold. Not only is the content current and relevant - they sometimes add a dash of humor to help digest this big pill which is future tech. If you don’t work in this field and the only reason you sign up is to get your certified - don’t waist your time as ...
