It's convenient to fulfill a required training. The program itself is infantile and could be made so much better with professional programmers and task designers.

Informative Renewal Course

Defencify course was easy to follow and very informative. Recommeded to all that need to renew their security license.

Ok. Not great.

I was able to do my studies at my own pace, at my workplace (so I was effectively paid for training). All good.
Defencify bundle is still loaded with glitches causing unwanted interruptions and frustration.
Given the ever-more expensive nature of the platform I believe I'll seek out a different venue for my future training.
