The user interface is well-designed and the course content is useful and easy to follow. However, in the Microsoft AI Foundation course, audio support is not available for Tamil and Malayalam, while Hindi and Telugu are provided. Since several Indian languages are already supported, excluding Tamil and Malayalam reduces accessibility for many learners. Adding audio options for these languages would make the course more inclusive and learner-friendly across different regions of India.

Courses are heavily marked up, not worth the money. Then you have to repeatedly follow up for the certificate. I am not sure if they will even give it. Support person calls and ask if you completed this and that assignment which are not even in the course. Why can't they see that their portal says it is completed 100%
★☆☆☆☆Ankith sai krishna· Sep 28, 2025
A complete fraud company I lost 94k rupees don't believe "upgrade". During the time of admission they stated that after completion of the digital marketing course in upgrade I will be receiving placement support after completion of the course placement team saying that "you were in the wrong city" and there is no digital marketing jobs in my city they why did they say we have plenty of opportunities in my city hyd?? Who is going to answer for this?? Placement team is not at all responding
