I appreciated the content covered in this course; however, there were several areas where the material could have been presented more clearly and in a more logical sequence. At times, concepts seemed to be mentioned only at a surface level in order to cover the topics, without providing sufficient explanation or depth for proper understanding. Unfortunately, I found that other freely available educational resources explained many of these concepts more effectively. Additionally, much of the course content appeared outdated. While it was noted that Azure may change minor details over time, some of the hands-on exercises were extremely difficult to complete without significant prior experience or reliance on external resources for clarification.
