I am a CCISO and CEH certified, this garbage certification (Syo-701) is Typical - Excessive information for a technician. Inaccurate and incomplete information rife with gotcha quiz questions. Some videos (I believe four) were incomplete (seconds (19s) long but displayed on navigation as 15 minutes). There was also a video where the presenter says cut, and retake, after fumbling words. So, INFOSec/Coursera/CompTIA - do a better job. You guys are just making this a cash cow. I was able to get through the content or absence thereof because I have other certification.

You don't get a completion certificate at the end of course. very sad. Lost my excitement.

Some videos are missing, some quizz questions have wrong answers.

No certificate is provided

It will be better if the wrong answer/option in quiz can having explanation as well, instead of only showing explanation of correct answer/option :)

Some test questions contained content not covered in the lesson. Many examples of regulations were US based. This is an international certification and should be instructed as such. The only international aspect was a reference to GDPR.

answers that were correct marked wrong and vice versa.

Videos were not complete. And some of the correct answers on the quizzes were wrong!

there is no certificate of completion?

While I appreciate the effort to align this course with the CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 objectives, I found the content lacking in several key areas necessary for exam preparation and practical understanding. 1. No recommended textbook or study materials: The course does not suggest any specific book to follow along with the lessons. A clear reference to supporting literature would have greatly enhanced the learning experience and helped bridge any knowledge gaps. 2. Lack of downloadable resources: There were no handouts, summaries, or downloadable materials provided. Supplementary resources would have made it easier to review and reinforce key concepts. 3. Limited real-world relevance: Many of the anecdotes and examples used in the lessons felt disconnected from real-world scenarios. This made it harder to relate the material to actual security practices or job roles. 4. Not sufficient for exam readiness: This course alone does not provide the depth or rigor needed to confidently prepare for the Security+ exam. Learners will need to supplement this with additional study resources and practice exams — which are not included here. Overall, I believe this course may serve as a very basic introduction, but it falls short as a standalone preparation tool for anyone seriously aiming to pass the SY0-701 certification.

Sometimes the correct answer was marked false.

Good information that is quick and to the point. 2 of the videos cut off early and were never fixed. It won't be possible to pass with only this class. The information was clear but the power point isn't downloadable.

Lecturer is easy to follow, though some videos cut off very early so the course is missing some content.

Just to memorize acronyms

The CompTIA security+701certification is a great way to demonstrate your knowledge and skills potential employers .Thank you to the instrutors and Coursera for providing such a valuable learning experience!

Excellent foundation for cybersecurity professionals! The CompTIA Security+ SY0-701 exam thoroughly covers essential security concepts, including risk management, cryptography, identity management, threat analysis, and security architecture. The updated objectives reflect real-world scenarios and modern threats, making it highly relevant for today’s IT and security roles. Study materials are widely available, and the certification is globally recognized—perfect for anyone starting or advancing in cybersecurity. Highly recommended!

The material was borken down into managable, yet reasonable segments and was given at a rate that anyone could retain. I believe this to have been the most helpful in my process of studying for the Sec Plus exam.

Loved this course. The instructor was very good! I plan to take the knowledge learned here and to expand with some practice exams to finally get ready to take my Security+701 exam! Thanks!

This course gives one a lot of information and it's information that seems relevant to the real world. I appreciate that about the course

It is very educative and well informed program to prepare and encourage individual to get confidence towards the exam.

Very good materials and the presentation is very good, Also the lecturer has a good way of explaining.

Only thing I would add is pop up questions in the more longer video for better video retention.

I loved every aspect of this course. Really took time to dissect everything I'd already learnt.

A good oportunity to learn more about the concepts of Cyber, I realy appreciated the course.

This course provide a good foundation to build on my knowledge for the security plus exam.
