Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the platform for its high-quality content, challenging labs, and well-structured learning paths, making it an excellent resource for cybersecurity education at all levels. Many users highlight the positive impact on their skill development and career progression, appreciating the practical and engaging nature of the material. The customer service is frequently described as top-notch, with quick, helpful, and personalized support. However, some customers have noted occasional connection problems and performance issues with the platform, describing it as slow and having a messy interface. A few people also mentioned that the inflexibility of test answers can be frustrating, sometimes requiring very specific wording that leads to guesswork rather than genuine learning. Additionally, some reviewers were dissatisfied with the customer service not being available in multiple languages.

I always loved the hackthebox…

I always loved the hackthebox community. From long time i was away from my learning. But i was looking for all the contents they are publishing and making that content enjoyable. Recently i started again improving my skills and i am enjoying every single module the team has put on the academy. I highly recommend everyone to go through htb academy to learn and improve skills. Thanks so much for making our lives easier but sharing this awesome content.

thought it was supposed to teach me, but I find myself having to constantly find answers from other sources to get the answer.

Excellency

After months of research, not knowing where to start my cybersecurity journey, Hack the box Academy was the answer. I'm very happy to have chosen HTB, no regrets.
It's not been an easy journey.. but one does not grow while being comfortable.

HTB Is Awesome!

As someone who has little knowledge in cyber security, their intro course has given me such a deep understanding of InfoSec that I had been seeking for some time now! I would recommend to anyone looking to get into cybersecurity.

Interactive Engagement and motivation

Very interactive with their learning with helps students engage deeper without feeling too overwhelmed or de-motivated. Most study issues are rooted from procrastination but HTB pushes you not only to finish what you started but also gives you an average completion time so you remain up to standard with real life regulations

I really liked the overall experience…

I really liked the overall experience with HTB, their site is amazing.
The modules all seem amazing too, and one of the things that I really like about them is that its hard enough so that you will need to think and aplly your self but not so much so it becomes discouraging.
Now bare in mind that i said what i said being a newbie.

OSCP what?

OSCP what? CPTS is where it's at, the training is easy to follow, web site navigation is intuitive as well. Hack smarter not harder!
