Speedy Delivery
We ordered our book to study for an exam and it came in great condition and a day earlier than expected. Very pleased with the book, the delivery speed, and communication. We will be ordering again!

Love it for the first test, confident going into second
Passed the 70-742 on the first try, I like this book, in its representation of what to expect, I was nervous about taking it after 4 weeks so I pushed my test back two more weeks, and then took it after 6 weeks of study. I would say to make your own flash cards from what you read, and have access to some type of virtual lab, or a Windows Server Installation for more confidence (to work through Exercises), but I am sure some people can just study from the book alone and maybe watch youtube videos on the stuff they need clarification on. With that being said, I need the experience because I don't get to play around inside of AD & Server manager on my current job and used to have remote access to servers on a previous job, so I use a virtual lab that I pay for to assist me with that part. The combination of the two, should get you there. If you have remote Access to a Windows server, you probably won't need any extra lab, as long as you know to only view things and not make any real changes, and if you have access a RODC, your good to go, because you won't be able to make changes there anyway. Also after actually seeing the test and knowing the next tests will be similar in structure, I am going to try to take the next one in just 4 weeks. My Goal is to have the full MCSA in 3 months time but because I took 6 weeks for the first test, It will be 3 1/2 months, new goal is to have it done before Christmas. Another thing to keep in mind, some organizations would rather hire people with experience than hire people with certifications, so it's its important to find way's to gain experience.

Painful but informative
Probably saved my job or got me a promotion. I have had more exciting days watching grass grow. Did make me reconsider my choices in life, until I thought about the HVAC in my office

Put together the tools you need in order to pass the exams.
The book is good; however additional study material will be needed in order to clear the exams. Udemy.com is a good place to start in order to fill in the gaps, and also use Oracle virtual box and install Windows data center 2016 (Desktop) for a practical learning environment experience. No one book can actually give you all the information that is required.

Inaccurate
The link to the tutorial videos is broken Also the product key for the server is invalid. Not to mention the book is not written in clear format, some subject explain in details and others are not

Not crazy about it, but I am not sure what my alternatives are.
I think it covers the exam topics, but is dry compared to certification books that I have read in the past (I enjoy reading Mike Meyer's CompTia certification books and Darril Gibson's Security+ book). Grammatical errors and poor editing sometimes make it difficult to understand. This author often neglects the little details that add value (e.g. "when running the 'xyz' wizard be sure to check the '123' box to avoid problems in the future). I am supplementing this book with videos from ITPro.TV. I hope that will be enough to prepare me for the exams. Overall, I am not crazy about it, but I hope it prepares me for the exams.

I suggest buying these books before signing up to a course as they are more inline with the examination content.Some of the on-line courses that you can sign up to don't show you enough material and you are expected to revise outside of their learning material. Hence, get this series of books to help with your examination studies and preparation. I found them huge but very helpful.

Mit nur diesem Buch ist das Examen unmöglich
Das Buch ist an sich nicht übel aber es sind einfach beide Bücher auf einander geknallt und somit hat man vieles doppelt drin.Ausserdem sind die Fragen im Buch nicht zu gebrauchen da sie nicht mit dem Examen übereinstimmen (also von der Art her denn die gleichen Fragen kann es ja klar nicht geben).Gott sei Danke habe ich Fragen mit dem Examen gekauft womit ich etwas besser vorbereitet war, wenn auch nicht 100%.Auf jeden Fall reicht das Buch bei weitem nicht aus um sich für den Test vorzubereiten. Hätte ich nicht mein Alltagswissen gehabt wäre ich im Test durchgefallen...

Meh
Not great; gives you a (very broad) overview of the topics, but doesn't really give you a lot of info on actually implementing the various technologies in a real life/practical way. Learned a lot more just from reading articles published (free/publicly available) on Microsoft's own site. Wouldn't recommend this book.

Ottimo.
Lo sto usando per studiare affiancandolo al materiale dei corsi MOC e lo userò come riferimento operativo in futuro. Gli argomenti sono molto ben spiegati ed è anche un valido supporto operativo.

Disappointed
