MeasureUp vs WhizLabs - A Detailed Comparison

[@WhizlabsSoftware]

Hi Tim, Thank you very much for the detailed video and feedback on Whizlabs' content. Glad that you liked our agility and customer support. The Drag & drop type Question feature you talked about is already work in progress; rest assured you will see a better interface and UI in our upgraded website and LMS very soon. The content is updated on a regular basis and we keep incorporating feedback from our learners, we have communicated the points raised by you, some changes have already been implemented.

Whizlabs is my favorite.

[@NilangaChandrasekara]

It is great to see a response like this. Which means they do take their customers seriously. Thank you @ Tim & @Whizlabs. I am planing to take MS-900 & AZ 104. Will definately give both a try. Awesome explanation.!!!

I haven't purchased from them yet, but from the test samples I can tell MeasureUP is superior in the way how hard and tricky the questions can be. It really put the need to be very familiar and precise with the docs while trying to pick the most correct answer. In defense of Whiz the actual exams do feature multiple question with single thing changed (the type of question you can go back after you answer) and the actual exams could have very blurry or hard to read images. I had image on test that was very big and very small to read, a lot of scrolling and zooming to get the information I need to answer the question. For prep MeasureUp, for generic knowledge check and practice WhizLabs.

I used Whizlabs earlier this year, 2021, for my AZ-900. I'll never use them again. While the price is right and the test exam features/functionality are nice, that's about all the positive things I have to say. I contacted them a few times over the course of my studying. E-Mail responses were canned. In one instance, I told them something like "Questions 1-5 on exam #2 all use the word premise instead of premises." They asked me to send the exact verbiage of each question. Who the heck wants to go over exam questions and type them all out? Not this guy, but I did give them 2 examples. I never heard from them about it again. Test questions are outside the scope of the cert. One example, I had a question in particular with about 50 lines of JSON code and I had to select which section of code had incorrect characters. If you have an issue with a test question, you can comment on the issue for them to review. I'd say 90% of questions I commented on with issues have had people complaining for a year and none of them were corrected. I couldn't understand anything being said in the training videos. I was solely focused on trying to make out what was being said instead of absorbing the information. That is when I found Tim's training course. (Amen!) The morning after I passed my exam, I contacted WhizLabs and had them delete my account and asked they never contact me again. They are definitely in it for the money above updating/correcting training materials. The current struggle now is finding some good AZ-104 training. MeasureUp is definitely on my radar now.

Thank you Major Rocker for this helpful information.

I used the Whizlabs free test for AZ-900 and then bought the Premium Plus subscription for the AZ-104. I think the practice tests prepared me well for the exam, especially in highlighting where I had weaknesses in the full understanding of certain modules. More crucially, I had issues with my profile being unable to review some attempted practice tests and the inability to run Whizlabs app on my Android device and I was provided with a temporary account whilst they fixed the issue. The Windows side of things has been fixed, but the Android issue is still in progress. Thank you for this review.

[@Chatsworth1979]

WoW, thanks so much for this, the sort of thing that's worth its weight in gold for potential test-takers. Much appreciated!

[@eltipicocanadiense]

I haven't used MeasureUp. I used WhizLabs to pass the PL-900 and I'm currently using WhizLabs to prepare for the MS-700. I've seen many people on Reddit mention MeasureUp so I was curious as to how it compared. Thanks for this!

[@YTisverycool2007]

Greatly appreciate you for taking the time to give detailed review on the two products!

[@agigcbo]

So far from using Udemy, Whizlabs, and measureup this year, I find that measureup is way more into the weeds and since I haven't taken a Microsoft cert yet (this will be my first), I can't tell if they're accurate or unnecessarily difficult. All I know is that the level of difficulty is night & day from them to the other two.

[@Ell000]

measure up is crazy difficult.....

[@ndousch]

A fair and objective comparison

[@jeremylowery]

Great break down, Tim!

[@zomgoose]

If only speed to pass the exam with cost not being a concern, which one would you choose?

[@rgereige]

Great video. Thanks Tim. Just a quick question, once having studied the AZ500 material, it is safe to say if you pass the Microsoft Official Practise Exam, you should be able to ace the exam.

[@charlessloane]

Hey Tim thanks for this comparison. How would Cybervista fit into this comparison?

[@Zixer_]

Hey Tim, how does this apply today? Is it similar?

[@TechTrainerTim]

I need to update this video. Today I recommend MeasureUp or a solid, well reviewed Udemy practice test. I don’t trust Whizlabs’ accuracy any more.

[@Zixer_]

@@TechTrainerTim Okay yeah cause iv seen online that sometimes the answers on Whizlabs are straightup wrong.. Would you still recommend Whizlabs for their Hands-on Labs? They are relatively cheap, and seem easy to follow but idk.

[@JulianSharp]

Thanks Tim, very useful

[@j4nnem4n]

Hi Tim, I have been googling but couldn't find any answers on the following. With the sandbox of Microsoft docs, I don't have permission to make a resource group or a user. Without users, I can't do an exercise like 'deploy Azure Virtual Desktop'. Am I doing something wrong? Whizlab offers sandboxes and hands-on lab, I haven't seen this in measureup. Would an Azure Sandbox be available in Whizlab and could I do the exercises of Microsoft docs there?

[@Ell000]

Measure up is super expensive, difficult and the interface seems very clunky. Can't work out how to "let me request the answer" in the practice exam, when I've selected it. Whizlabs is much nicer to use but some of the questions aren't written very well and I haven't had responses from question accuracy queries I've sent.

[@doobip]

good explanation

[@KiwiBA712]

Measureup is terrible. Practice tests disappear without notice.

[@hardikdesai24]

I am a subscriber of whizlabs; some of the answers are incorrect, content is not so good. Seem to be more of a braindump. The customer service is also unresponsive when contacted for wrong answers. I will not recommend it.

[@Chatsworth1979]

Thank you Hardik Desai for this helpful information.

[@redadz9105]

Tim Warner, how much did get paid for that? what benefit did you get? Did you get fired from MeasureUp so you are attacking them?

[@TechTrainerTim]

I would encourage you to actually watch the video and find out! 😊

[@redadz9105]

@@TechTrainerTim I did, and I was not so impressed. Especially after reading so many negative comments here. sorry 😯

[@TechTrainerTim]

@@redadz9105 Ok, thank you for watching the video. I respect your opinion. For clarity, I have no affiliate relationship either with MeasureUp or Whizlabs.
