Our Verdict

A hit-or-miss option for those looking to learn Microsoft's System Center Configuration Manager (SCCM). While it has helped users get started with a lab setup, the inconsistent presentation and outdated material limit its effectiveness in conveying essential SCCM knowledge. Despite the divided opinions, the course is worth trying as it offers some insightful, beginner-friendly information for aspiring administrators and Endpoint Protection users in a cost-effective package. However, more experienced learners will benefit from alternative options that deliver up-to-date content to master this advanced system management solution.

What We Liked

  • Comprehensive coverage of SCCM installation, administration, and Endpoint Protection integration
  • Straightforward instructions for setting up a lab environment and implementing SCCM in production
  • Helped users successfully install and configure SCCM in their lab environments
  • Valuable for those seeking basic understanding of SCCM without needing deep expertise

Potential Drawbacks

  • Confusing naming schemes and out-of-sequence content causing a disjointed learning experience
  • Lack of clear explanations, leaving users with memorization tasks instead of real understanding
  • Outdated material that may not reflect the latest SCCM version and features
  • Insufficient support and infrequent updates
