The delivery of the content is good, although it is just an actor reading verbatum the text in the Microsoft learn docs. However the main issue is that a lot of the content is very hard to complete because it seems to come from somewhere else (e.g. a Microsoft training course) but the critical setup information was not copied as well. This means that to actually do the exercises the student needs their own Azure credit, and also needs to dig around random github repos to find the matching datasets. Additionally there are pretty rampant typos. This is not a well made course, and needs serious work.

there are no labs, sandboxes or vms available. Theory only

Hands-on exercises are useless since necessary data and information is missing

no labs, poor tests. Real drop off in content quality after first set in series. This course should be modified. Will not complete series. Will not recommend.

Overall was Ok, but hands on part is missing which is really important in my mind.

I truly understand that is not a beginner course. However, Microsoft should rebuild this course adding more labs and other practical material. For beginner, the course is very advanced. For intermediate and advanced, the course is a copy and paste from manuals. There is a mid-way that you need to fill. The videos is good, but, need more practical exercises with prepared correct environment.

Content is great but it would be more helpful if there is video version of the exercises

Descriptive and informative could be more useful with handson sandbox

Sandbox was missing, making practice assignments difficult to start.

The course would be a lot better if they provided the exercise datasets.

Excellent step-by-step presentation of theoretical concepts which were neatly tied to their application. I just wish we were provided with an actual Azure Sandbox or a Dummy One to apply taught concepts in real-time and have enough practice. This is something that Coursera Course Makers can look into. But overall, the course was very well and carefully crafted. Thank you so much to everyone.

It was really good, provided practical knowledge about azure data factory and its individual components. The course material is designed in well manner, as a learner you will know things step by step

Gaining lot of knowledge about Azure Data Factory

Excellent

Good

I thought the exercises were kind of poorly written and my sandbox isn't working so I had to try to set everything up on my own account. The biggest lesson I learned from this course is that Azure is very expensive, especially Synapse.

Existen ejercicios que no están de acorde con la herramienta. El ejercicio dice una cosa y la herramienta muestra otra cosa.

The content seems to be copy pasted from microsoft learn.

There is no lab provided (sandbox) or clear instructions to do any of the practise exercises and projects.

There were mistakes and mix-ups in the test questions.

Boring... The content is boring. I think it is better to read a book rather than listening to one person just rambling the facts...

No code base/ samples to upload for the exercices.

No sandox available either.

Sloppy job. Appalling. I'm losing my time.

Without sandbox or pr-prepared environment the example tasks are not easy to complete.

Topics can be explained much more simpler than they are explained here. For instance, it does not add too much value to memorize (because it's in the quiz) how many cores of CPU is used in a debug session. Or which version SSIS projects were introduced in SQL Server (reminder: this is not a SQL Server training).

Also the exercises do not provide a VM to test your knowledge like in GCP or IBM's trainings. All in all, I am not satisfied with this course at all.

Many mistakes in the exercises. They have all been reported multiple times and being mentioned in the discussion forum for more than a year. No one is taking any action to correct them.

The material is very dry just repeating the written content from the learn.microsoft.com website.

Coursera description is very misleading, and suggest the availability of practice exercises. But the possibility to execute exercises is not provided for most module!

Shame - I now switched to Microsoft Learn to take this course

Exercises are missing setup instructions. The material is a straight copy from learn.microsoft.com. There are no instructors to answer questions.
