My go-to platform to learn news topics
There are not many text based online schools. It seems, most of the people are doing better with videos. I am not one of them in general. And it always upsets me when I have to scroll through the video when I need a reminder.I don't remember already how I found Educative. I have had great time with it and just prolonged my subscription for another two years.Networking, Terraform, C have been the new topics for me. I started exploring them on Educative right away. I relied on the consise, structured courses that I selected. They made me curious and they provided me with the hints on how to continue digging using the other resources. "A practical guide to AWS IAM" has helped me to finally make sense of this AWS service. Again, having a lot of food for thought I went to AWS docs, AI chats etc, expending what I learned from this nice consise course.I did Educative AWS labs a couple of times to get used to a service that was new to me. It was also good to have an opportunity not to mess with my own account or account at work.

It's been a real game
It's been a real game, changer in prepping for interviews when it comes to me brushing up on my Python and system design skills through Educative. What I love most about it are the interactive code playgrounds which allow you to get hands, on practice right in your browser without any setup hassle, plus the courses are concise yet comprehensivethey go all the way from basics to advanced topics like LeetCode patterns.The mobile app sync, at times, works slowly and hence it is the only reason that not all my five stars go. But the desktop app that I used was flawless, and the support team was very quick in solving the issue. It's really worth the money compared to bootcamps, and I would definitely recommend it to learners who prefer to study at their own pace.

Disappointing course content and AI…
Disappointing course content and AI features. Far too expensive for the value it provides. As someone who has worked in software engineering for 10+ years, I found myself constantly cross-referencing with external services (other AI chatbots, blog posts, etc), so much so that I really only found the course outlines useful. I asked for a refund after ~2 weeks of purchasing their yearly plan, and they refused, citing their return policy.

Educative is guided self-mastery.
Their support team is attentive, responsive, and focused on delivering the most essential information. The platform is content-rich, clear, visual, and affordable — making it easy to stay and grow with them over the years.I’ve taken courses like Grokking System Design and Advanced MySQL, and explored several others. Each course lets you pick up right where you left off and ramp up smoothly. The lessons are practical, well-structured, and deeply relevant to real-world engineering.Educative’s courses are built with clarity and intent — designed to keep you sharp, current, and moving forward—a genuinely well-crafted learning experience by experts.

The courses are real and great but discounts are not
The courses are real and great, infact there are tons of courses, some are more interactive than others, but still a lot of info.Their sales are going all year long, I have got a birthday sale discount of 33% and still see same discount for labor day, Halloween and so on. This is sad, feels like a fake promo

Very good for a focused learner
I've used Educative to learn a new programming language, practice interview topics, and some specialized skills training. I've found the pacing of the lessons to be good for an experienced programmer, the quality of the information to be very useful, and much prefer their style of training to video courses. I would recommend it for someone who can make a focused investment.

Super helpful!
Educative is by far one of the best learning platforms I’ve used. The interactive, text based lessons make it easy to grasp complex concepts quickly. It’s been a huge boost to my confidence and skills, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to grow in tech.

Strengths and Weaknesses
You have good centered topics on interview preparation but for people not ready and need to build those skills we need a better guidance on preparatory courses.

Educative’s courses are well structured…
Educative’s courses are well structured and easy to follow. The text-based format helps me learn at my own pace, even with limited time or an unstable internet connection. I especially liked the System Design courses, which include practical examples from major companies.

It was awesome
It was awesome. I was able to learn so much from the Golang for Programmers. I needed to know Golang for my new job, and I was able to learn all the fundamentals from it. Thanks Educative!

I like Educative since most courses…Since most courses have hands-on labs and mostly the mock interviews.
I like Educative since most courses have hands-on labs and the thing that interests me the most is the mock interviews using AI to gauge your understanding, mainly in system design, where i was a bit lacking. Still, those mock interviews helped me to sharpen my System design skills and be able to look the system design interview from Interview standpoint.
