One of the best cybersecurity training
What do you like best?
The lab is the best because it makes me feel that I'm doing a real-world scenario, instead of the theories. The lab also forces me to study deeper into a certain problem that I cannot resolve in the lab itself. i can pause anytime and go back where I left off, thus giving me time to study the gaps that I do not understand well. The lab is a mixture of clues and no clues at all, which really makes me go deeper and research from outside. This is the correct way of learning. One must not depend on one platform for researching and studying.
Also the PDF material is also good. It does not discusses lengthy topics on certain subjects. It might be incomplete in some way, but as I have mentioned, one must not depend on single or few resources. The PDF material is short but informative and straightforward. It deals directly to the topic issue that needs to be resolved in the lab. And yes, the material is related to the lab. There are resources from other training platform that contains a lot of unnecessary information, which causes confusion in some way.
What do you dislike?
So far, I have no dislike. The only problem that I encountered sometime is that the virtual lab is slow. I'm not sure if it is my connection or the traffic which cause bottleneck in the operation of the server.

Just do the labs, so as the real-world scenarios.
What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?
I am currently brushing up my knowledge in Cybersecurity concepts. I had some training from other provider but I liked the platform that I'm using from RangeForce. The phase of training is so much better because after each module, I get to do a hands-on. Unlike other resources, I have to study on a lot of theoretical or foundational knowledge before getting my hands dirty. I, as a technical person, is more adept to the concept of "learn by doing it". I can easily learn something if I'm doing hands-on because it does not show the process of doing it, but it helps in analyzing how certain things work.
