There are a few different set up fees based off of number of users, any data migration etc. that needs to be done.
For me, A Cloud Guru was the best platform for learning and retaining what I've learned. I really enjoyed taking courses at A Cloud Guru. Other platforms where too slow, or seemed to be trying too hard, and I never felt like I was learning much compared to A Cloud Guru.
We have not evaluated any other providers besides ACG as the original offer we got quite a few years ago was so nicely matching and working for us. Therefore we did not have any requirements to look at any other providers besides ACG. Commercially we have not yet seen any …
WE have tried taking free training courses directly from Amazon but their LMS is difficult to naviate and the video are not engaging. Pracitce Exams are too easy vs the actual exams.
The main differentiator was the contents as we were interested in a cloud platform other similar platforms did not have the below: it is very good to establish cloud learning development plans and then track them and manage them for the team. The platform supports learning …
I have used both A Cloud Guru and Udemy for business and I feel A Cloud Guru does a better job. With Udemy you have to purchase your modules. With A Cloud Guru you get everything in one place. This work[s] better for me as I can move from one certification to the next.
Compared to O'Reilly in general, the ACG [A Cloud Guru] content is more specific to AWS and with more examples and real-world use cases. O'Reilly is broader in terms of technologies you can learn, but none of them go deep into the details. Another thing is that O'Reilly focuses …
Cantrill.io gives far more content and lab work to build skills within the certification boundaries. If there was a similar vendor for both Azure and Google, we would have considered going with targeted vendor training vs a generalized provider.
Course choice is much smaller than Udemy but the quality feels a lot higher. There's accountability for them being accurate and you can see them being regularly updated. The labs and playgrounds are really useful for getting to grips with technical concepts.

Chose A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy)
We compared A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy) with Cloud Academy and Udemy for Business. The content for A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy) was much more engaging and interactive. Cost was on par with Cloud Academy.
We have tried LinkedIn learning but there are a lot of older courses and not too many for the IT Pro. I think it is great for management and soft skills, but nowhere near the depth of A Cloud Guru. I know for my team, we like the many different and up to date courses for a vast …
A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy) was the only platform we evaluated for the vast majority of our cloud training, however we have found other providers are better in certain areas and use them to supplement A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy). For example, TutorialsDojo and WhizLabs both …
Udemy has a wider and broader range of topics for your users to browse and choose from whereas A Cloud Guru (Linux Academy) has more finely tuned or a more carefully selected and curated range of videos and courses for your users to browse and choose from. I think each one has …
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 …
A Cloud Guru provided better freshness of content and was priced more competitively than other cloud training platforms. A Cloud Guru also had training paths that other providers did not have on their platform. I also enjoyed the fact that there are reports that you can run on …
There are a lot of LMS options out there and it was quite daunting trying to see how everyone compared and differentiated themselves. While they all may have been able to provide the LMS functionality we would eventually need, Auzmor stood out in the conversations we had based …
Auzmor Learn is apt for our use case for an LMS for a smaller organization. It is a package well with good features and at a good price point makes it ideal for smaller companies to get an LMS set up. Other options were either more expensive or did not include as many features.
We had a set of requirements we needed within 3 months timeline. We found many options, but the usability and learner experience in Auzmor Learn was good.
Auzmor Learn LMS provided good integrations and analytics-related features. Many features that felt would be beneficial to our team have been implemented or have considered in the roadmap. The process of finding the right learning management system was a journey through …
Auzmor Learn has similar functionality to Mindflash, Skyprep and BizLibrary. What sets them apart for me was their willingness to team with me in addressing the unique challenges that our business sector has (construction) due to a very transient workforce.
Auzmor is a superior platform. What separates Auzmor is customer service! When I believe an update or new feature will help our organization, Auzmor listens. Many times, they will implement the idea. Other companies do not have live customer service. You talk to a …
The level of support we have received from Auzmor Learn has been fantastic. The amount of training that we received during the implementation process to the level of support we continue to receive is top tier. If we ever have any issues or questions, we know that a member from …
The process of researching various learning management systems was about a two year endeavor. We had a set of very specific features we needed and a strict budget. We found many great options along the way, but the deciding factors were ease of use for our learners and cost of …
While searching for the appropriate LMS, we did a trial period with TalentLMS. Compared with the support we received from Auzmor [Learn], the features with TalentLMS didn't really meet our needs due to the different types of education we were seeking to provide for our EMS …
Compared to the platforms listed above, Auzmor offers a variety of ready to go content packages and subject matters, and it has frequent updates to the content. We selected Auzmor because of the cost and user friendly feel.
Reporting and Insights are more effective and easy to access with Auzmor. Third-party content saves a lot of time in course creations. I think they have close to 70k contents to choose the appropriate which suits you.
In my 30+ years of experience in the QA and Training areas, I have been both on the user and administrator end of several learning management systems (LMS). Some of the LMSs for previous employers were professionally developed and some were developed in-house. All of them had …
If your organization is technical-based and offers its employees different online courses to enhance their knowledge, then A Cloud Guru will be perfect for you. There are multiple courses available from different cloud platforms. The platform is easy to use and navigate and does not require much knowledge. Even if you do not have basic technical knowledge, the courses available in A Cloud Guru are designed in such a manner that a non-technical person will understand the concept easily.
Overall Auzmor Learn works well handling the basic Learning Management Systems needs for OSHA general industry (1910) where employees are in an office, business or industry setting and stay or return to their workplace frequently. Most us a desktop computer to do their training. In the construction industry 90% of employees are in the field nearly 100% of the time. As a specialty contractor that falls under the OSHA standard (1926) Auzmor has listened to my concerns and challenges and has begun to address them by customizing features.
Assessments can now easily be uploaded in bulk using a CSV template.
Successful assessment submission(s) from a learner will trigger a notification to their respective manager/instructor/admin who assigned the training to them.
We can create a lesson through video formats, documents, embedding links, YouTube & Vimeo.
It can create and track our live training both classroom and online.
The course is publicly accessible with public weblink.
There was some missing functionality that was raised to the Auzmor team, which they are very receptive of that feedback and work with you on providing a solution, work around or addressing it in a future release.
Being able to attach certain file types for training exercises was not supported.
There was some limitations on resizing some images and text boxes during course content creation.
Some of the whitelabeling and cutomization of the UI has some limitations.
From a functionality standpoint the software continues to meet the requirements we had set for the LMS we chose to implement. The addition of new features has increased the likelihood we will continue to use Auzmor Learn. As long as the usability of the software meets the needs of our learners we would not have a reason to look at other options
The platform is simple to use. I can have a new employee come to orientation with no computer skills and get that person up and running on Auzmor within minutes. On the admin side, Auzmor is intuitive and easy to use.
The support team of A Cloud Guru is quite quick. There are scenarios where A Cloud Guru was not working in my organization. We reached out to their support team and they quickly resolved the issue. Also, if any individual is facing issues accessing A Cloud Guru, their support team is quick to resolve the issue.
Excellent customer support. They work with you to set up the courses, tell you industry best practices, and a good way for structuring courses. Whatever additional features are needed, can be discussed at length with the Auzmor Learn team and they are very open to solve and add these to their product backlog for future updates.
The main differentiator was the contents as we were interested in a cloud platform other similar platforms did not have the below: it is very good to establish cloud learning development plans and then track them and manage them for the team. The platform supports learning tracks, exams, and sandboxes with all major cloud providers guarantees that you don't get an accidental charge as a result of [the] testing and exploring the cloud
There are a lot of LMS options out there and it was quite daunting trying to see how everyone compared and differentiated themselves. While they all may have been able to provide the LMS functionality we would eventually need, Auzmor stood out in the conversations we had based on functionality, pricing and support. It was not just an LMS product, but a partnership we were getting to make sure we would have everything we would initially need and also for where we wanted our training to be for years to come.
