Almost perfect. The content is nice and delivered in a fast-paced way, which is good. There is some problems but they affect very little. Some of the problems: - the subtitles are automatic; - the subtitles cover important parts of the screen sometimes; - there is some repetitive or mistaken content; Anyway, thanks for this course!

What really sets Cours Comblement apart for me is the depth of information they offer. They don't just skim the surface; they delve deep into each topic, providing clear explanations and insightful examples. This has been especially helpful for me in understanding complex concepts.

By Ajwat Ul-Hasan on 4/14/2024

Course gives a good start but should go into searching multiple sites , gather data dynamically and store it in data store and then analyse it. It is single website scraping with specific field which requires you to analyse the website in advance. This should go to little bit more advance level.

By Francisco Arnoso on 1/25/2024

Pros: It's OK complete and well explained Cont: A little old tools, no resources, no answer on the chat.

Globalement c'est une bonne introduction pour les débutant. Attention certaines fois l'audio peut être décalé avec la vidéo et même certaines fois l'audio ne correspondait pas du tout avec la vidéo (l'audio semblait provenir d'une toute autre vidéo...)

By Chintamani Modak on 12/15/2023

This course is really good. Enjoyed watching and learning all the lectures thereby raising my knowledge in the web scraping field. Thanks to Meta Brains.

By Precius Tucson on 11/15/2023

Excellently explained course, with special care taken for clear diction without unintelligible smears; even the transcripts are edited for those who, like me, are not proficient in English. A suggestion for the teacher: add a part for the most common errata such as 403, 500, etc., because experimenting with scrape on some pages one comes across these situations and sometimes does not understand how to solve them. In any case a really good course to enter the world of web scraping.
