Great course, lots of very challenging and useful information. You'll learn about Linux and some of the inner workings of Windows, plus lots of tools and programs that are really useful. Great course!

I have a problem with this lab. When I reache the middle of the step of using linux commmand it always says command not found. I'm stuck.

Way too deep in the weeds, focusing more on memorizing step by step "how to's" as opposed to more broad overarching key concepts.

The course was very enlightening but the issue with Qwiklab not syncing the grades properly made this course not enjoyable.

The Linux stuff is pretty good, but the Windows tasks are far too remedial. Also, the grading doesn't work half the time.

Labs are horribly run by Qwiklabs with poor response and function. I wish Google had run this program.
