It is a business centred course that will help you understand the most important metrics. It includes comprehensive glossaries and lectures that will help you in the process and a lot of case studies.

It's the first course from the specification, which makes us better understand the necessary business metrics for data-driven companies, and it is a good entry for following modules. Help me a lot.

Would have given it four stars if it weren't for issues experienced with broken glossary links, course info errors and the lack of scope definition with the final peer review assignment.

I'd appreciate more meaningful practice and elaboration of the terms discussed. This material went by very quickly, without spending much time learning and processing vocabulary.

The examples from Amazon and Google were great, but the rest of the materials were quite mainstream, eg. cash flow, inventory. Also too much focus on the roles and marketplace.

Why were we talking about money managers and hedge funds? What does that have to do with data analytics for business? I never saw the connection and they never explained it.

The business case on the Coffee Roaster company is really helpful. For the rest, it seems to me just a collection of disparate metrics with no solid foundation.

Found the overview of metrics insightful. Financial portion harder to follow, would have preferred more high level, same as other metrics discussed.

Everything was going good until week 3, in spite of passing the course week 3 remains a little blurry in my head because of lack of explanation.

The content is not interesting for me, it's not designed in the way that makes learners feel excited and curious to watch all of the content.

I really like the first Weeks course where we have distinguished business metrics based on problems at hand.it was quite elaborated.Good.

The course is informative. I love the content and the subject, but it's dry in places, and it gets challenging to maintain my attention.

Good introduction to business metrics. I was less enthusiastic about all the investment metrics and formulas, but that might just be me.

Very basic course, pretty much an introduction into the Excel to SQL specialisation. Final assignment is not too challenging.

Very basic terms. Not very helpful for later concepts and would not recommend for business professionals that have experience

A lot of time devoted to the job stuff may not be super relevant for most students, and was certainly not super relvant too.

Survey course. Excited to apply the knowledge and learn concrete skills in the upcoming courses within this specialization.

The course for me was very simple and basic. I recommend it to students who makes their firs steps in this area.

I was really hoping it would get more into the use of tools like SQL, not just mention them as being important.

need course to be more deeper in specific/each content, and the grading is quite not reflect learning results.

The course content is good. However, by the review assigment i can see that the concepts were not clear, ther

I wish the class went slower through the business metrics, showing more how to calculate and more examples.

The course is very short and has a small content. Final assignment doesn't have a straightforward grading.

A very useful course for budding professionals. Wouldn't recommend this to middle managers / data experts.

Very good course, only 1 BIG disadvantage: you cannot take the quizzes unless you buy the certificate...

Interesting enough, good start to the specialization but not the most content for a standalone course.

the data is very important but it needs much practical explanation and the tools used is not enough
