I have enrolled in scaler data science course recently. And after completing a couple of months studies with them here are the Pros and Cons for me:

Pros:

1. Very structured course and relevant topics. Along with really good assignments after each class.
2. Instructors are really good. Until now I have only interacted with Mohit Uniyal, and I think he is really good. He is very thorough and amazingly patient while answering doubts.
3. Teaching Assistance support is another great resource. You can reach out to them anytime via chat or video call. So that’s very handy.
4. The dashboard is laid out really well too. The options to view class recordings any time, making bookmarks, discussion, scaler support access. Very neat!
5. I have heard they have good placement and career support as well. I haven’t availed or experience this yet first hand since I am only 2 months in the course now.

Cons:

1. Quite expensive course for sure, but given the quality and other equally and more expensive courses in the market such as upgrad, I am not surprised.
2. Features like mentors are not very helpful, as even many mentors are still figuring out their career.
3. A lot of spam from scaler. OMG! like you name it, Email, Whatsapp, Slack, so much spam from scaler and other learners.
4. Lack of quality network building. Eventhough scaler has the above platforms where learners can connect, it still fails to help learners network. I know it is a hard thing, but I hope scaler can come with something where learners can benefit from each other.

A very common question which I have been receiving lately is upgrad worth it?

I will help you with this query of yours. Almost about 3 months ago I had enrolled in their data science program and there are major drawbacks which created doubts in my head whether is upgrad worth it? as I feel they are playing with the student’s time and money The institute mentions that they conduct live classes, but it is not continued for the whole training. And only a certain amount of sessions like for instance, out of 300 hours only 100 hours are dedicated for live sessions. The rest of them are mostly pre-recorded videos. Some fundamentals courses or training from Upgrad consist only of recorded videos and apart from their data science program some of the Master, MBA, and data analytics courses are expensive and are not suitable for working professionals.

The course fee is quite high, and even after paying that amount, there is no assurance that you will get a job after course completion. For those who don’t meet the criteria to avail of the assured job opportunity, there is no provision to claim a refund on the fees paid or any other kind of adjustment for the lost opportunity. After analyzing my reviews do you still feel is upgrad worth it?

Definitely No! You can find far more better options than UpGrad like Scalar, Udemy, Intellipath, DataTrained etc.
