Today I passed the exam on the first attempt with good score. Here is my advice: Marious really touches every part of the exam, but you need to learn from other sources too. I used the Packt book. Lab everything, if you don't understand something do some research, my recommendation is youtube. If you want to get knowledge about Windows Servers do this course, I can say the 4.5 course rating is not a coincident.
By Jordan Penrose on 6/14/2021
This course is extremely good for beginners to Windows Server. Ive been in my role as a Cloud & Hosting Engineer for just under 2 years and ive learnt a decent amount from working but this was useful to cover some gaps that i did not know and kinda of take me thru the building of labs to do testing as well as put setting up a server into perspective. Would highly recommend for people with little to no experience, it covers some good key concepts that are very useful in day to day server administrating.

This course was very helpful in giving a mid-depth review of the things I need to keep in mind for the MTA exam. I've already learned a lot of it in other courses I've taken in the past, but you never know what a particular exam is going to throw at you. There were a couple of things I'd forgotten or not learned before, so having it all in one place to review right before the exam is great.

Some of the content just seemed to be a little fragmented. Content probably not explained well enough to understand to pass a certification exam.
By Mickey Minchew on 11/15/2020
Instructions that go along with the actual 'play-by-play' of installing virtual machines for lab greatly enhances confidence when undertaking processes.
By Matt Wilson on 11/8/2020
A lot of good information here that helped me prepare for passing the server fundamentals exam. All the basics are covered here. Add this course with some practice exams and you'll be good to go. Thank you!

This is what i am expecting
By Anonymized User on 10/26/2020

Should not use VM box. if we have hyper V. I think is useful but if we already have hyper v than no use of vm box
By Alberto Rota on 10/14/2020
Awesome teacher
By Axel Reznik on 10/4/2020
So far so good, looks a very engaging course, the Instructor seems to be in control and is very clear when explaining things, also he goes through a concise explanation about installing the VMs, which is good as not everyone is familiar with them.
By Iris Ketting on 10/1/2020
I'm glad you give a clear explanation and pictures of what you need to do. So as a beginner I can understand what you mean. And having two displays myself, I can see your lesson on one, pause when I want, and look back for some seconds as I have to make the installation of my virtual machines complete on the other display.
