Kishore covered the Basics and helped us do the Labs during the training session. It helped us to practice and apply the concepts during the session. He also pro-actively asked for any issues and helped to clarify the doubts during Labs. I appreciate his efforts & thank Orbus International for arranging such a interactive training program.

I had the privilege of receiving training on Alibaba Cloud from Orbus International, and it was an exceptional experience. The content was well-structured, and the trainers were highly knowledgeable, making complex concepts easy to grasp. I feel much more confident in my skills now, thanks to the quality of training delivered.

“Content explanation is too good where even those new to SailPoint also can understand the content but as I don’t have much practice about programming language it was bit difficult for me to follow up else it’s too good .
Just one drawback/ feedback is practice time for LAB could’ve been for one more additional week where I could’ve got more hands-on and get myself well equipped.”
Gopi Batta
