DataCamp review

DataCamp teaches data and AI skills through short in-browser coding exercises, so you practice Python, SQL, R or Power BI while you watch. The free Basic plan opens the first chapter of every course, skill assessments, cheat sheets and a professional profile. Premium unlocks the full catalog of 810+ courses, career and skill tracks, certificates and DataCamp certifications, plus step-by-step projects. Live code-alongs and competitions add practice, and the mobile app offers daily coding challenges. A Teams plan for two or more people adds group management and progress tracking, and enterprise plans add SSO and LMS integrations. DataCamp says more than 20 million learners use it and that 80% of the Fortune 1000 do too. The limits are its narrow focus and the fact that bite-size exercises can feel guided compared with messy real data. The pricing page showed us euros, so the USD price is pending.
