Review Educative?

Educative receives mixed reviews. Users appreciate the platform's comprehensive course offerings and ease of use, particularly for interview preparation, as highlighted by the makers of the "Grokking the System Design Interview" and "Grokking the Coding Interview: Patterns for Coding Questions" courses. However, many users criticize the outdated content, lack of clarity, and poor customer service, including issues with auto-renewal and refund policies. Some find the tutorials superficial and not worth the cost, suggesting free alternatives may offer better value.

Cons: sometimes very superficial and not informative tutorials, many typos, playgrounds are too simple, quizzes are made like as just to be, mistakes in the given information. From my perspective you can find much better and free of charge articles on the internet. So, it isn't a good value for money, considering that much money they're asking for. Pros: easy to use, provides all relevant courses in one place, good coverage of topics.

I feel that this site has very, very superficial tutorials. The guidance on how to build applications is very sketchy, and you end up wasting time online to find solutions because they do not provide enough information. If you need support, it is very difficult to obtain, you can 'ask a question', which opens up a forum. The tool they give you to ask a question is just atrocious, almost impossible to use. I have definitely wasted my money.

Some of the courses are stale. Educative do not let you know when a course was first published but when you start the course you release that some of the code library are so old they are deprecated. The explanation even for beginner courses lacks clarification and is full of grammatical errors. Better to watch YouTube videos for what you want to learn. The course that has really put me off is quick-start full-stack web development with React Flask. Following the course has been a pain in the **s.
