CBT Nuggets Reviews & Product Details

I like Cisco CCNA 100-105 in CBT Nuggets, the video lessons are interesting, and the Jeremy Cloara explains even difficult networking topics in a way that is easy to understand. The course structure is well-organized, covering everything from basic networking fundamentals to advanced routing and switching. I especially like that the videos are short and focused, making it easy to learn. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, there is nothing I really dislike. But the cost is quite high compared to other learning platforms like Udemy, which often offer big discounts. CBT Nuggets charges around $60 per month, but it’s hard to finish a full course in just one month. So, this part feels a bit expensive for me as a long-term learner.

CBT Nuggets has the most up-to-date and current trainings you can find on all sorts of exams, from CompTIA to Microsoft to ISC2, you can literally find everything. The training videos are very detailed and informative and helped to learn more about what is on the A+ exam. The trainers are also very knowledgeable and know their stuff! I highly recommend CBT Nuggets to anyone who is looking for excellent quality training on all of the exams! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing I dislike about CBT Nuggets is that it’s not free. I do like that they offer a trial period of 7 days; however, I just wish the plans were more affordable at least. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Following my CCNA certification, I wanted to achieve my CCNP certification and when I reached out to my CCNA instructor (Neil Anderson website), it recommended me CBT Nuggets and Jeff Kish explanation has been the best in the CCNP ENCOR 350-401 v1.1 course.

Also, the automation and programmability section needs a bit more topics to be included. All I would say is Cisco isn’t just all about basics of programming for Automation (cannot say more due to my NDA Agreement 😅).

I would definitely recommend CBT NUGGETS as a go to source for all professional level and higher level courses but for me, I wish Jeff Kish was the only instructor 😅. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It could have been best for me to have Jeff Kish explain all the topics himself. Having multiple instructors for a course, made it difficult for me to understand what others were saying as I felt they were speaking a lot faster and their explanation and clarification techniques were a bit too straightforward (like just reading out a textbook).

This was the only downside for me during my time I have given to complete the course on CCNP ENCOR 350-401 v1.1 on CBT NUGGETS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The CBT Nuggets series for the CCNA exam did an overall very good job explaining the material. Most videos were easy to understand and follow. The biggest benefit however is the inclusion of labs with the course. The labs did an exceptional job giving me hands on experience with the CLI and getting a better understanding of each topic through hands on experience. I feel very prepared for the exam after running through the videos and labs especially. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There were some video topics that I feel missed the mark. Primarily the last few regarding the automation and programmability section of the exam. I don't believe these videos were in depth enough to cover all of the material. Luckily, for v1.1 that section is only worth 10% of the exam. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve used a variety of IT training platforms, but none have come close to the quality and real-world impact of CBT Nuggets. I began my journey with their Network+ course, which helped me pass that exam with confidence. But the real transformation came with their CCNA 200-301 training—a certification I recently completed thanks to CBT Nuggets, and one that led directly to a promotion and a 12% raise.

The content is incredibly well-structured, and the instructors do more than just teach—they explain, relate, and engage. The videos helped complex networking topics truly click for me, and I appreciated being able to rewind, rewatch, and lab alongside the lessons at my own pace. It felt less like memorizing and more like learning in a way that sticks.

Since earning my CCNA, I’ve been trusted with more responsibilities at work, and my colleagues now treat me as someone they can count on for deeper technical insight. It’s made a huge difference in both my career and my confidence.

Now I’m tackling the Cisco CyberOps Associate course, and I’ve already enrolled in Python for Network Engineers, CCNP ENCOR, PCNSE, and F5 Application Delivery Fundamentals. With CBT Nuggets, learning doesn’t feel like a chore—it feels like forward momentum.

If you’re looking for a training platform that not only prepares you for certification exams but also transforms how you show up in your career, CBT Nuggets is the real deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While the training content is excellent, there are two key gaps that stand out:

• There’s no course available for CLICA 300-820, which is the concentration I need to complete my CCNP Collaboration certification. It’s a major part of the Cisco track and its absence is disappointing.

• There’s no official CBT Nuggets app for iPhone or Android, which makes mobile learning far less convenient. Being able to study on the go is essential, and a polished, supported mobile app would go a long way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like how the videos are broken down into short, focused segments—it makes the content easier to digest and revisit. The instructors explain things clearly and use real-world examples, which helps connect the dots. I also appreciate the hands-on labs and built-in quizzes that test your knowledge as you go.

Sometimes the platform feels a little outdated in terms of layout and user interface. It can also be tricky to find specific content quickly, especially if you’re looking for something buried in a longer course. A better search function or more detailed transcripts would definitely help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It was a game-changer for my CCNA preparation—the video lessons were clear, concise, and packed with real-world examples that made even the tougher concepts easier to understand. The trainers have a great way of explaining things without overwhelming you, which was key for me while balancing work and study.

Now that I'm working through ENCOR (Cisco Enterprise Core), CBT Nuggets is once again proving to be an essential part of my learning toolkit. The course structure, practice exams, and virtual labs keep me engaged and help reinforce everything I’m learning. It’s like having a mentor on demand.

If you’re serious about Cisco certifications—or IT in general—CBT Nuggets is worth every penny. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No offline downloads is the only issue I have had with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about CBT Nuggets is the friendly user interface and the course instructors! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Honestly, there hasn't been anything I dislike about CBT Nuggets. It's been amazing for me so far! I'm about halfway through the CCNA course and I have nothing but positive feedback! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

one place for training, testing and certifications for many IT. you can do in the comfort of your home or your office with the video\online. much cheaper than going to a class out of town. :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I do not have anything bad to say about CBT nuggets. I guess if I had to i would like it to be cheaper but still nothing compared to premise based training or somewhere else onsite. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

CBT Nuggets is a great resource for those starting out or just trying to keep current with today's tech. They way instructors break down there coarse and the information to easy to digest segments. The way they are set up allows you to study at your pace. The lab tools are great and dont require you to install anything which means i can work on alot of machines.

My only complain would be you can just use CBTNugget as a one stop shop for passing certs you will need more but you should never really put all your eggs in on basket anyways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
