Our Verdict
Windows Deployment Services: Build Your Server From Scratch offers a thorough exploration of the WDS deployment process. Although some students may find the fast pacing challenging, and the lack of consistency in virtualization software problematic, the instructors' clear instructions and detailed explanations effectively guide learners through building and configuring their own WDS server. However, this course focuses on earlier versions of Windows Server, and those seeking information on newer releases may need to look elsewhere.
