    I really felt this to be the best KVM course on UDEMY.. I wish you would do a newer version and update it. You have the best teaching I have found. I want more.. I love that you do the command line and show the real power of KVM. Please do more and upgrade, if not then do a Virtualbox style and show the command line options.. Everyone wants easy but have no idea how much their missing not using the Command line. Thanks for your course.

    It´s not bad but very basic. It can work for you if you are looking for a very introductory course.

    it was not to clear at first how to make the centos 7 vm machine and how to setup the network there was not a step by step process, which make the rest of the course unusable due to the lack of compatibility with the OS, i just copied the commands for future use but could not replicate in my enviroment
