Educative is a very nice platform for beginners and intermediates but still lacks quality content on advanced topics such as GAN, Autoencoders, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They have very well-structured career paths, especially for software developers like Ace the SDE interview ( python/java/c++), which are helpful for beginners and intermediate programmers alike.
They also have hands-on projects which aid in learning and are very useful to deal with some of the real world scenarios Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In my use, for more than three years, I have not found any major flaws or issues with using the platform. If I were to nitpick, I would want more career paths and design patterns courses for data science and other fields. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Contains text-based self-paced courses, instead of video courses. Text-based courses can be read or skimmed very quickly by a user as compared to video-based courses.
- Each course has an in-built coding platform, that saves time because the learner need not waste time in setting up the environment locally while learning.
- Very good quality courses. All the courses that I undertook were apt. In addition, it has a Good UI and courses are well-illustrated which differentiates it from books, and hence you are not generally bored. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
- Some courses are only for premium users, and the pricing is a bit on the higher side for Individuals. Free courses are also present, and they are not bad though.
- Does not has a course rating system, so, as the content grows, it might become difficult to differentiate between good and bad courses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Tons
1. There are a lot of mistakes in many sections; time complexity is wrong in DSA sections in multiple parts.
2. Although it an organized and makes preparation really easy, it feels like in many of the Coding Solutions, the authors did not put effort; it just gives you SOLUTIONs and a 3,4 liner summary which basically feels like reading a pseudo code. I had to refer to Youtube and Leetcode discussion section to understand the solution properly. Even medium articles do better on explanation
3. The python version used to run code is outdated, and it sometimes bothers the hell out because we get errors we should not be getting
Still, I think it's worth it. They have done an excellent job of making the process easier and step by step. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
