A few improvements I can think of for A Cloud Guru would involve moving beyond the traditional installation approach to a hands-on experience within terminals. Furthermore, I believe the technology space is shifting towards AI chatbots, so incorporating training on effectively using chatbots for information retrieval would be beneficial. Instead of just providing a help note, offering prompts that assist in learning and solving coding exercises could greatly improve the learning process, as many of us now use chatbots to obtain detailed answers to advance our development. Regarding pricing, I suggest A Cloud Guru could be more competitive. I compare it with other educational platforms, some of which offer corporate discounts, and I notice that many companies opt for those, while the organizations I have worked for have not utilized an A Cloud Guru corporate account, which presents a challenge. I am unsure about the marketing aspects, but other platforms I see have corporate versions, and I can create an account, which I have not seen as an option here. Given that these courses are very specific and tailored to cloud, I assume the pricing might be somewhat higher, which could make it challenging for every company to invest in them.

Mobile access to calls and records has freed agents’ time but call logs create slowly
Working and getting advice from the Mobile Connect team and the process around it was spot-on. Ruben Opdenakker particularly was very supportive of our ad hoc requests while we were in our POV stage. He was very prompt, and I recommend Mobile Connect to anyone who's looking to implement a similar use case in their organization.
