Dataquest Reviews & Product Details

I love how comprehensive the content is. There are courses and learning paths for multiple topics, purposes and levels. I have been able to lear many different things even when I am already familiar with some of the languages and methods.

The platform is also very user friendly and the sessions are well explained and straigh forward. The duration is good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love data quest generally. Une suggestion for inprovement is that there are not a lot of ways to identify lessons of courses for single issues, without enroling in a full course or learning path. I would love to be able to search for single sessions and materials for specific topics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Firstly, Dataquest provides accessibility, enabling users to learn anytime, anywhere, fitting into busy schedules. Secondly, interactive lessons and exercises engage learners actively, promoting better retention. Moreover, progress tracking features allow users to monitor their advancement, fostering motivation and a sense of accomplishment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Since I started using Dataquest, I've noticed one drawback - sometimes the progress of tasks gets stuck. This issue isn't consistent; it might not even be a problem with Dataquest but rather with my browser. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dataquest is a super e-learning platform which gives you opportunities to complete a career path so you have a skillset for that job at the end of the program. they are very generous, i sent them a e-mail about my economical situations and they helped me a lot. you can easily use the platform by simply clicking the lectures. the good thing is, every skill, tech, and theoratical lesson is based on coding. you are learning while coding and that's awesome.

i wish there were other side fields to get a skill and become better, like product management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the text-based courses. Video courses are engaging to watch, but they only create the illusion of learning and progress. When you read, you're more likely to retain the information. Plus, every lesson contains exercises that you must solve (normally with code). This is true even for lessons about things like calculus (which is a course Dataquest actually has). I've never found a platform I've enjoyed learning on more than dataquest. It's so easy to use, and the progress tracking means you want to use it as often as possible. You can learn Excel, data science, data analysis, Tableau, Power BI Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have much to say on this front. The only thing would be that some of the non-code modules (eg for Excel or Power BI) have actual copies of the programs you can use in your browser, and they sometimes time out, which can be frustrating. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about Dataquest is that, it is an interactive learning platform. Means I can learn and practise the same in the side by side. The User interface is really best for the beginners. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The thing I dislike is that if you are just revising the topics, then also you will have to learn everything from scratch. There is no quick way to revise your learnings, you will have to start again! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Dataquest has courses that meet you at your level. You can start one with absolutely zero coding background and quickly gain competence, escalating progressively and with lots of support along the way. They have many options and focus on building your portfolio so you can be competitive in the job market. The website is clean and easy to use, with a built-in coding environment, minimizing the need for external tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some exercises are fairly repetitive, but DQ does allow you to skip sections. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How it is structured; having different "chapters" and seeing progress in each is a really clean format. I also enjoy the mix view of the chapter info / task on the left then applying the task on the right hand side. If I am ever stuck, they also have a "Get a Hint" feature which is stellar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the menu navigation is a bit wonky. When I am covering a topic I already know such as SQL, I usually read the chapters I already know but skip through them. This does not show as "completed" in Dataquest which I guess is right but throws me off when I go back in sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Lessons are short and useful. They also serve as a good starting point if you are completely new to coding and statistics. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you have a prior knowledge of statistical concepts or if you only want to learn specific aspects of R for biostatistics and biomedical research, there are some long modules with things you probably will never use. I think some things should be two separate courses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found it really nice that there are so many learning paths and that you can learn a lot with the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I found the system where you had to complete the assignments occasionally. That kind of Excel app sometimes freezes a lot. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No mandatory videos. I learn best by reading, then doing. The DataQuest lessons are easily digestible. Great for learning Python. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the answer parser doesn't work exactly. I also think their DS track includes some unnecessary lessons (like learning RegEx). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
