I began taking the AZ-103 online course today and the videos are great – I am able to have two screens going and follow along using my own Azure account lesson-by-lesson. Having a variable playback speed in the video window is also very handy since I need to slow down playback sometimes to work through a specific point.
I have taken Azure training on two other online training sites and my first impression is that WhizLabs has a better offering – especially with respect to only purchasing practice tests when I am ready, instead of a bulk monthly charge for practice tests.
Great work, everyone!
