Me gusto mucho este curso, te dan información muy útil y te explican detalles importantes a considerar, las preguntas de los Quiz ayudan mucho a aceitar la información

By Vijay on 8/1/2025

It covers the Financial Management part for the Cloud Management as to how effectively one can carry on the activities based on the 3 phase approach - Inform/Optimize/Operate and it's an Iterative loop, very nicely covered the metrics, and how to effectively leverage and use the resources in the cloud space Thanks, Vijay

Este curso profundiza en elementos del FinOps algo más desconocidos y nos da una visión general de herramientas utilizadas por los equipos que toman decisiones en el día a día. Nos abre un poco las puertas a GenAI y las herramientas más optimizadas a día de hoy.

The course was well laid out, provided relevant information for an overview of FinOps as well as diving into detail to specific areas relevant to each of the main CSPs.

Amazing job in pulling together all resources on FinOps. Good overview and important is that you brought the perspective on AWS, Azure and GCP. Definitely a good start for me.

By Pat Chiariello on 1/11/2023

Good information, but most of the time was spent reading the slides. In the flow chart examples, try to segment it out so it fits in the screen so you don't have to scroll all the time. Made it hard to follow.

By Yogesh HUBLI on 11/18/2022

Overall content was good and presentation was satisfactory. I felt that if the presentation were into plain understandable English that would have been very useful for some of the users who cannot immediately grasp the language.

By Anonymized User on 9/21/2022

A good intro to FinOps for all 3 major cloud providers: AWS, Azure, and Google. Course content titles need correction, along with orthographical/spelling mistakes throughout the course are a bit distracting, but overall good 3-hour course.

By Mehul Janodia on 8/30/2022

Course gave a good overview of what I was looking for. It can improve on the actual examples and the flow of the explanation. There are also quite a few grammer and spelling mistakes, which should be rectified
