Do NOT take this course! At least one lab is broken (Week 5) and Coursera said 9 months ago:

"I have reviewed your lab, and can confirm that there is an ongoing issue.   We have taken note of this and it's our top priority to fix this, our team is already working on this and we will fix it at the earliest. We will keep you updated with the progress. We will put our best efforts to fix this and get you up and running at the earliest."

That was NINE MONTHS AGO.

This course is dead. Content is broken. You will pay for it and never be able to finish it. Do not waste your money.

Reality of the course is you can hardly complete it. The labs aren't proper. Even if you complete the lab the score in qwiklabs wont get updated. Trust me if you are a beginner and thinking of doing it course go ahead but you will face lots of difficulty in labs. there are many problems in it. moreover you can attempt a lab 5 times only. the mentor support is really poor. for every problem that arises the staff replies contact on a particular email. i mean you guys know there are lost of error in the lab can't the GCP members fix it?

My experience was extremely terrible about this course. In one lab about Kubernetes clusters, the GKE cluster is unable to be created following the instructions.No support, no feedbacks, and when I was trying to create a new lab sessions,I was told the "Your last lab was ended because you did not follow the lab instructions. As a reminder, repeated behavior may result in an account block. "

Totally a waste of money and highly unrecommended.

I had a hard time as this material was far off of my current work tasks. I also found that several of the labs did not clearly indicate where to look for a control or a menu item . Please add screen shots to these labs so people who are new can find the control you are asking them to click or interact with.

I can't understand why, how in then world the Lab access button is not visible and accessible to every student from the beginning. It is a very frustrating experience, considering that is not free.

I don't recommend this course to anyone. There are many online providers that have no such a inconvenient.

I want to learn. Locking me out of the course labs after the course is over is stupid. Grade or don't grade the lab, I don't care, but let me review the lab to learn. Additionally, preventing me from providing feedback to coursera directly leaves me with the option of providing the information here.

One of my Lab exercise is not complete due to issues in scripts provided by this course. So ultimately, I could not complete this certification. I sent email to customer care with all the details but no response. Hope Coursera will improve their services and courses in future.

worst course setup. ONe of the lab is shown incomplete even after several retries and completions. about 15 times. the completion status is not updated in the coursera my courses.

giving one star because to enable submit button below. the actual worth is less than a 0 star.

Now I've finished courses, I'm trying some mock exams, and I see that the real certification is much more complicated and needs to know so much features I don't know...

I need to be prepared for the certification, Coursera does not prepare you, it just flies over basics.

This course is very pathetically explained, though I completed it fully but still this course needs to be updated. It felt as if I'm watching advertisements and not study lectures. Please focus on teaching style. I will never recommend this course to anyone.

I can not enrol to the next course, due to older version.

Google Cloud Shell takes 90% of exam time to just open, which makes fail in the exam.

Qwicklabs is good, but the Cloud Shell is very very bad quality.

Google Cloud Shell is just west of time.

fucking coursera i have stop to use but this course is giving free certificate thats why i m trying why google not put into his skillshop this coursera is fucking low errors and not getting certificate for my this course fuck,,,,,,,

Drink everytime the lecturer said "Google" without reason. You won't make it 5 minutes.

The content of the lecture can be shorter, too much commercials in the lecture. The questions don't echo what was in the lecture (vs AWS for example).

A basic course, and the labs (Qwiklabs) are very difficult to use from China, where i live. (vpn aside there is an account verification issue i reported, but no solution for that). Without the labs the course is useless...

There's absolutely no technical support. Its impossible to finish the course and get credit for it when you can't even get into the first lab. I reached out to the proper people for help and never recieved a response.

I was unable to complete the process. There is something technical error. Please provide me certificate for this course, as I was unable to complete the course during my subscription period.

"Google Cloud Fundamentals: Getting Started with Cloud Storage and Cloud SQL" This Lab is not working properly . this lab automatic end and terminates from console when we are doing task .

Lots of errors/mistakes in building this course. The worst part is you can't even complete it because the labs have bugs in them. A truly frustrating course I should have stayed away from

I cannot access the Quiklabs labs and your support is non-existent. someone reach me at my email [email protected] or god forbid call me (202-369-8489) before I can this crappy service.

Disheartend since I faced technical issue while performing the tasks in the Lab. Highlighted the issue to tech team but it wasnt resolved for me. Thanks for the course though.

coursera is now a real asshole that it tries to hide all links of free and open courses and take advantages of its authors. it is really worse than pirates. shame of you!

There is a problem with the Kubernetes Engine Lab, that's the only lab that makes me fail this class.

Please update the necessary files on the engine for further trials

The videos are short and poor, it's unbelievable to me that entire features are covered in 2-3 minute videos. The labs are great though, but that's Qwiklabs of course.

Unable to open Qwiklabs saying to sign into account. Tried for 30 minutes by downloading chrome and in incognito mode, tried to change password and got invalid token.

Already done in french but unfortunately not taken into account in my progression. Moreover lesson in french is in fact in english no translation available
