Nice work. Good course if taken as an Elementary 70-779 preparation. Not a 5-star though. I believe the lectures about DAX could be better. Specifically, the filter and row contexts should be explained deeply so that the attendee with no previous DAX knowledge can understand and build solid knowledge. Another example: the difference betwen SUM and SUMX is not explained. The CALCULATE, ALL and FILTER functions also deserve a much more detailed description. I guess someone with no previous DAX knowledge would get very confused.

Amazing and excellent course! Ben is a great story-teller. He explained all topics and it's functionality through a practical example which was very easy to follow. He covered all the necessary topics needed to learn for the exam.

Ben does a great job of thoroughly explaining the concepts as he demonstrates them. I really like that he shows the gotchas so you don't make those mistakes. Ben really knows his stuff and presents it in bite size chunks that you can follow and understand. I highly recommend this course!

Amazing course, I graduated 3 years ago and during this time I just used Excel for basic stuff so I feel like I was rusted, It has been great to find this course, get the rust out and learn new excel features. Very worthy in every aspect. You won't regret it.

One of the best course if someone wants to prepare for Excel Data Analysis. Can include more advanced topics on DAX and Visualizations. But in 4 hrs, this was great and concise. Videos are bit blurred in Modeling Data section.

By Joy Sunga on 7/3/2020

This is very helpful. I learned a lot since I am someone who knows very little about data transformation and pivot functions. Having the lectures archived, I will be able to go back and review specific functionalities as often as I need to. The only comment I have is there are video parts where the screen gets blurry. I hope you get to correct this. Other than this, I'd say the learning experiemce is worth it. I didn't know MS Excel can be a powerful tool. Thank you very much, SuperDataScience & Udemy.

I think this course would be better if add a resume from every course. So if I or another user want to review the course, we can just see a resume. The course is very good but maybe the server or something like that must can be better than this. I often experienced buffer when I stream the video

By James Gachanja on 7/1/2020

Superb course. Very helpful to me as I will use what I have learnt in my day to day work. The lecturer is also superb, very clear and concise and actually making the concept sink in very well. Highly recommended course for learning advanced Excel!

By Rohan Kumar on 3/25/2020

I have been using excel since years but never realized it's power and depth of features on offer. This course does a very good job in introducing these features hence I will keep in mind in future in my work. Presentation is good and explanation is clear .

By David Mitchell on 2/22/2020

Good, but 1/3 of course is missing/TBD! Why publish a course when incomplete? Not a good practice.
