    Starts off strong but has a shaky progression
    The first course in the specialization was really interesting. As the courses progressed, the assignments lacked substance and did not prepare for the final capstone project. The assignments in the analytics and landscape courses tended to use textbook questions. When it came time for the capstone, it was people's first attempt in compiling a marketing report. Although textbook questions are not necessarily a bad thing, assignments in the lecture courses should directly prepare students for the capstone.
  • Great experience
    Instead of saying it as a course, I would say it is a great experience. This special and innovative course has covered all the aspects of marketing in a very good manner. The way syllabus is defined matches with your busy schedule. It is easy to learn and earn a additional credit for you in person. Course has varied aspects of digital marketing, it gave me lot of insights and good examples to compare and learn. It was very happy and interesting for me to earn a global credit.

    Thanks to Illinois and Coursera.

    Challenging Capstone but worth it
    The specialization was worth the effort and most instructors were great. There were a few glitches - errors on the exams and a few of the descriptions of the assignments were vague, however, I'm sure these issues have been solved. One of the most enjoyable part was interacting with students from over 20 countries.
  • Old Wine in a New Bottle
    I finished the first course, Marketing in a digital world and must say, Aric handmade the concepts easy to understand and comprehend and there is a good balance of theory as well as practicals in the course. It was truly interesting and am looking forward to finishing the specialisation.

    Great Overview of Digital Marketing with an Insight-Generating Capstone Project
    UOI's Digital Marketing Specialization was a superb experience for me!

    It provided a total overview of digital marketing and how it compares with traditional marketing. And I now have for ready reference the best practices of the varied components that make up DM.

    The capstone project provided insights into how you apply the concepts, and the tools and techniques available to you.

    Net result, prospective customers are paying attention to what I say!

    Great Course For Entry Level to Experienced Marketing Professionals
    I'm an experienced marketing professional and I wanted to understand the latest and greatest digital marketing strategies being employed today. The Digital Marketing course taught by University of Illinois School of Business and Head of Industry at Google was the right course for me right now. It was relevant, fresh, and timely. It was also my first Coursera hosted course which was an equally enjoyable experience. I highly recommend this course.
  • Complete and useful
    The content of all the specialization is quite complete and one can touch all the basic parts of Digital Marketing for building successful campaigns including; strategy, analytics, branding and planning. It finished with a very interesting capstone project which consist in building a whole marketing plan for a company.
