  1. Quite Impressed

    Posted by Andre on 18th Jul 2010

    As a nuggets user I was quite surprised to see that your products are not only cheaper (a lot cheaper) but right up there with the best with the technical coverage you provide. Glad I stopped to take a look, I'll be buying your SCOM videos where you release them.

  2. Covers Everything

    Posted by Kayla on 28th Jun 2010

    This training can't be beaten for the price. It covers everything I can think of and the training is easy to follow and easy to understand. Nothing else comes close.

  3. Superb

    Posted by Ron on 17th Jun 2010

    No question, you wont find better value than this. You must get a lot of customers as this training really kills the competition in both content and price.

  4. Too Good

    Posted by Ed Gilson on 12th Jun 2010

    I bought these videos probably 3 months ago and was showing this site to a friend when I saw the comment from Valerie about logging in and finding brand new videos for free. To my surprise, I too logged in and there was 8 new videos since my last visit. That's really amazing and appreciated. Most people couldnt care less once they have your money so its a nice change to get something for free. Great Videos love them.

  5. Clearly the Best Value

    Posted by Valerie A. on 17th May 2009

    I bought your Windows 2008 training about a month ago and it was excellent. To my surprise though, I just logged on to find 5 or so new videos that I could download at no extra cost. That was an unexpected surprise and reaffirms my belief that you offer the best value for money training around. Thank you.

  6. Really Really Good

    Posted by Ravi on 14th May 2009

    Hi. A friend told me about your Windows 2008 training. Glad he did, it was very good. The AD videos were really good, I definitely understand it more now.

  7. Best Windows 2008 Training Around

    Posted by Jim Stoeger on 1st Apr 2009

    Without a doubt, this is the best Windows 2008 Training I have come across. Sure there are others around, but nothing covers this much or is close to the price. I heard of you from a college mate and he was right on the money. I'll be recommending you too.

  8. A lot of training for the money

    Posted by Kevin McMahon on 2nd Mar 2009

    I was recommended your products by a friend who had bought the 2008 training. It's very good for the money. Like the previous poster, there's nothing that can touch your stuff for the money. But savings alone wont keep customers. Thankfully your material is good too.

  9. Don't be ripped off elsewhere

    Posted by Michael Kreeg on 25th Feb 2009

    Like many people I needed to get up to speed with Windows 2008 and study for my exams. So I did my homework - here's what I found.

    CBT Nuggets $299 per product (over $1500)
    Train Signal $397 per product (almost $2000)
    CBT Planet $1999
    Winstructor $197

    Do you realize that you are over 7 times cheaper than the nearest competitor? Furthermore, you actually have more videos than they do. I truly don't understand the massive price differences, but I am glad I was able to save the money I did.

    I cannot recommend your products highly enough. Thank you.
