The content could've been a little more descriptive. At times, it got a little overwhelming in terms of technical terminologies, but overall, it was amazing. The notebooks were a great resource, when it came to hands on learning.

Definitely a recommended course.

Lots of modules are broken and data can not be assessed for training. In the discussion forum this is voiced over and over again without any intervention from the course designers.

Completely broken: the course includes set-up scripts to prepare data projects for learning, and they do not work. I have been seeking support for this for three days without response, and am stuck at the beginning of module 2 with no recourse (meanwhile my 14-day access to Azure Databricks is just ticking by...) If you go to the discussion forum for this module, you can see that students have been complaining about this issue for 2 months, without any response or any fix. Coursera is a good idea, poorly implemented. I've already wasted 12 hours on this course, and there is no path forward, so it has been nothing more than a waste of time.

The lab work in this course is broken and has been broken for a long time. Coursera really needs to be continuously reviewing the training material and updating it as necessary. Also, the Azure portal has been updated and the screenshots and instructions don't always align because the updates to Azure

Los ejercicios no se pueden hacer porque están desactualizados, no te resuelven los problemas y pierdes tiempo en los periodos de prueba de Azure
