Bad customer service I have used the chat to ask questions about the course and the person (should've take the name -_-) on top of taking ages to reply, kept on telling me to "google it" , she/he clearly didn't know anything about the course (Front-End web dev). Now seeing all the bad reviews of this platform I will not proceed to the course.

Honestly edX is my favourite site to do… Honestly edX is my favourite site to do these courses. The fee you pay for the certificates if you go that route are indefinite, so you can do the course as you please. Other sites you would have to pay monthly and depending if you don't complete within the month you'll only pay more. So, price wise really good. The courses I've taken are really well done. Quality instruction and depending on the course good forum interaction too. I've also done free courses and are exactly like the payed ones difference being the certificate. So, if you don't want to pay you still get quality instruction.

This company is Satan incarnate This company, edX/2U, is performing a money grab. They advertise about this great opportunity, a way to improve your living situation by learning a skill that is in need. I was sold by their salespeople on a great opportunity. When I finished, received my paper, paid my money, and couldn't find work... I was told there was no guarantee to find employment. Every response seemed as thought it was scripted. not to mention, my mom passed away in the middle of the bootcamp I was enrolled in. I was grieving, I wasn't able to learn anything or retain any info. my mind was on mourning the passing of my mom. edx/2U counselors offered me one excused absence of the two days I missed when my mom passed. They didn't offer anything outside of that excused absence. No postponed class, maybe restart in a new class, a refund..Nothing. they are a greedy corporation that wants your money. I'm sure they've rebranded and are probably running this same scam under a new name. Just be careful.

Good content, poor navigation I took 4 courses in the last year. While the course quality is good, the navigation through the learning material is a nightmare. Please fix the user experience ;)

EDX can be used in different ways EDX can be used in different ways. I personally have used EDX since its inception. I am a huge fan of e-learning and wrote to the UK government 40 years ago when the internet started with the massive opportunity it presented to improve UK education - deaf ears of course (read Rory Stewart's book on how government does not work). But EDX and FutureLearn have provided significant resources for everyone in the world online and if you 'audit' the course (as I do) then they are completely free. Yes some vary in quality, but some of the courses I have reviewed are simply the best courses I have ever taken in my life - and I have a UK Hons Degree done way back when. So, I suggest people stop & think before paying - Audit the course FIRST - then, if it is good quality and is what you expect, only then pay if you really need a certificate.
