Configuration Management and the Cloud are not easy to understand and learning them has been, like all the courses I've taken on coursera before, a great experience.

The word Python was mentioned once during the entire class. I would have liked to have seen automation examples using Python. This seems more adept to be in a class providing an intro to Change Management rather than part of this course. That's why it received a two. If it had been in an intro to change management, it is more like a 5 star class.

Worst course of the series. It gave some introduction to Google's cloud services, which felt like a blatant advertisement.

The Quicklabs exercise should be checked carefully. I couldn't get the app to build.

The courses themselves are interesting, although they cover everything very superficially. They introduce you to various fascinating topics, and if you're interested, you can always delve deeper. The rating is so low because the use of the lab is utterly frustrating, and after getting tired of wasting time grappling with the lab, I've decided to abandon the course, even though I found the content interesting.

The most useless course in the specialization that teaches you nothing that you can show to your employer. Tons of theory that you do not know how to put into practice and almost no practical tasks. I've learned much more about Docker and other stuff just watching videos on YouTube.

Очень плохо.

Задания не соответствуют лекциям.

Лекции оторваны от предыдущих курсов.

Хотя темы по идее сложные и интересные, но похоже на мем "рисуем сову". =(
