Has anyone here used Stormwind (http://stormwind.com/) for training?

They take CLCs so that is a plus. Only go to the CCNP level though...

They seem to be more focused on visual presentation than content or at least that is what their website promotes.

I will stick with INE.

Not sure yet, we are going to have a quick call with them on the 1st of April.  If there is no NDA, I will report back.  I also want to talk to my Cisco SE and Sales to see if they do in fact use Stormwind for all of Cisco.

That was my concern as well.  However, being able to access the content for 2 years after taking a class when using CLC's is nice.

With INE (and IPX I think) you get a 2 year subscription to the All Access Pass. Workbooks and material you purchase are yours for life, including updates. Think this is the standard across the board.

Would still be interested to hear what people think. New isnt always bad.
