Great Quality content for all the Data folks

Overall, I really liked the platform where they provide so many features that has helped me and my team gain knowledge, sharpen the skills and helps us get back to Datacamp when we have to refer something keeping our daily work in progress.

PROS

Gained a lot of knowledge with various topics on Cloud concepts, Data analytics, Python, R programming, BigData concepts with both bite sized videos of theory at first where the instructors from the industry explain with examples, after each video there is a hands-on session with a simple and nice interface. There is also a workspace area where we can practice and showcase our skills and share it too being part of our portfolio. The assessments they provide us gives us information about what we learn, the areas we are strong in and the progress of our learning. Lastly, there is good support, when stuck we can get hints to proceed with the programming tasks, MCQs. Apart from this there is a Slack community where there are lot of active users and instructors that solve doubts quickly and efficiently.

CONS

Their VM crashes when learning the Tableau, Power BI and it takes a lot of time for it to load initially. Secondly, I faced an issue with the course progress where I had completed 3 modules/chapters out of 4, but when I tried to proceed to the next chapter (4th), it automatically reseted the progress of the 3rd chapter and showed that I did not complete it. Had taken screenshots and sent had given the feedback in the feedback section for each module.

Best learning platform for data analytics and data science

Overall, we had a great experience using DataCamp as our learning platform for our data team. As a manager, it's very convenient to recommend and assign courses for my team members to work on while also being able to check their progress.

PROS

First, I like the interactive learning style in DataCamp. It's much more effective to learn while coding and getting instant feedback, while also doing it at your own pace. I also like the quality and wide range of courses in DataCamp.

CONS

The price is a bit high. Other than that, I don't really have anything else I dislike about DataCamp.

Reason for choosing DataCamp

Same reason. The interactive learning style in DataCamp and the wide range of relevant courses made us choose DataCamp over the alternatives.

Reasons for switching to DataCamp

For data analytics and data science specifically, the interactive coding and learning method used in DataCamp is, I think, more effective. Also, there's much more relevant courses in DataCamp for our team than our previous learning platform.

My Review of DataCamp

My overall experience with DataCamp is very good and I enjoy learning through it.

PROS

I like that DataCamp focuses on computer science which has a huge demand in the market. I also like that each course is offered in two programming languages like python or R language. The interface of DataCamp is straightforward and makes you want always to keep learning.

CONS

I don't like that DataCamp doesn't have any discussion forum that allows us to exchange information and share our knowledge. Also, DataCamp is overpriced compared to the competitors and doesn't provide any scholarships

Interactive learning experience: Datacamp courses are interactive, allowing users to practice what they have learned through exercises and quizzes as they go through the material.

DataCamp review from a Data Analyst POV.

Highly recommend Datacamp to any newbie or professional in the data space. lessons are well-structured and easy to understand. I wish I discovered Datacamp earlier.

PROS

Not much other than the fact that it is paid.

CONS

The fact it is a bit expensive, coming from a third world country the price is a bit over the top.

Reasons for switching to DataCamp

In my opinion, there's a lot of fluff in the YouTube space and once I discovered Datacamp, I could never look back.

Datacamp is filling in the gaps of my data science knowledge

It has been really great, within a few weeks, the content of the course had changed how I approached my code at work.

PROS

I have been working as a data analyst for the last few years but my educational path has been pretty self-driven up to this point. Datacamp is helping me to fill in the gaps with all of the stuff I don't know I don't know.

CONS

I wish there was a better way to download the materials for later review.

Fantastic Challenges

PROS

Content is gradually increased, so you don't feel overwhelmed. The challenges they give you during chapters, is brilliant - it checks your knowledge. I've competed 3 courses so far, and am on my 4th - and they all seem to have the same style of delivery.

CONS

The hints, they are most of the time, awful. Actually its frustrating, learning something new, being given hints which simply put - do not help at all.....

Reason for choosing DataCamp

exercises and challenges, and this gets you to practice, otherwise its all theory.

Oh what a great learning platform!

PROS

Everything! This is one of the best platforms to learn Python/R/Data Analysis to ever exist! I can't believe how well their programs are created, how interactive and challenging they are, and how well the whole experience is designed.

CONS

Sometimes the tasks in courses were a bit uneven when it comes to level of difficulty, but I think that's a very personal opinion of mine.

Engaging and Smart Data Subjects Learning Platform

PROS

free courses are complete, videos and practices are well prepared. Thanks to the suggested learning paths, one can become a real specialist. The gamified platform is easy and fun to interact with. Price is affordable, you pay less than a monthly Netflix subscription. There are challenges and live events that make you feel like in a real academy.

CONS

I can't really find anything that hurts my experience. I know that it can't be compared to a traditional University Course, but for the price I paid, the deal one gets is more than fair.

With DataCamp I had no more excuses for learning

I feel pretty comfortable and finally, I'm learning. I enjoy the time I spend learning knowing I'm building knowledge for the better.

PROS

I enjoy every lesson. Before DataCamp I tried to take many courses on programming and data analysis but always failed as there were boring. With DataCamp I find a vast variety of lessons and is easy to follow step by step. Perfect for beginners

CONS

Is a lot of information and sometimes it gets hard to decide where to start

Good Educational Resource

Overall, DataCamp is a great enterprise resource for learning new skills, albeit a bit simplistic for practicing.

PROS

I enjoy the way DataCamp lessons are structured and easy to follow. There are also a wealth of classes pertaining to everything a data scientists/engineer/analyst would ever need for career growth.

CONS

Many of the datacamp lessons are overly simplistic. DataCamp could also offer more practice problems or assessments for skill building.
