It will demand hard work to make it work!

I joined Scaler in 2022 in DS Module. I was already into software engineering from past 2 years. My sole purpose was to attain the deep understanding of softwares which I did not have at the time.At the time fee was around 2L. Scaler have a good curriculum, you can get it on yt , but the environment that is created by the regular classess and peer groups makes us consistent in the pursuit. Most of the teachers were really good , with few exceptions ofcourse.Amit sir for example made me understand SQL in a way that I never forget the concepts till date.I wasn't consistent on my assignments but they were making my mind sharp and had all the concepts that are asked in interviews. So some comment saying bad content, I am not sure how you can classify it as bad, they teach you exactly what you will need in interviews and software development.Placement is a topic I cannot comment about , as I switched companies in my own but the learning helps.To be conclusive as 6 year experienced SE, if you learn what they teach you , you'll be outstanding SE. But nothing guarantees 100%.

Life booster

I joined Scaler as a student with ambition, curiosity, and a strong desire to grow—but what I received was far more than just a course. Scaler didn’t just teach me technical skills; it reshaped my mindset, my discipline, and my confidence as a professional.The curriculum is thoughtfully designed, deeply practical, and constantly aligned with real-world industry needs. Every concept is broken down in a way that makes even complex topics feel approachable. The mentors and instructors are not just teachers—they are true guides who genuinely care about your growth, push you to think deeper, and help you see your own potential when you doubt it yourself.What truly sets Scaler apart is its ecosystem. The peer learning, mock interviews, structured problem-solving approach, and continuous feedback create an environment where growth feels inevitable if you are willing to put in the effort. Over time, I didn’t just complete the program—I transformed. I evolved from a learner into a confident professional.Becoming a Scaler alumnus was a proud moment, but my journey didn’t stop there. Today, being part of Scaler as an employee feels incredibly fulfilling. It’s rare to find an organization where you grow as a student, graduate as an alumnus, and then contribute back as a team member. Working here has allowed me to see the same impact Scaler creates—this time from the inside—and it has only strengthened my belief in the product and the mission.Scaler Academy is not just an education platform; it’s a launchpad for careers and a community that stays with you long after the course ends. If you are serious about upskilling, transforming your career, and learning in an environment that truly believes in you, Scaler is absolutely worth it.Joining Scaler was one of the best decisions of my life—and I would make it again without hesitation.Agar chaahe to main isko thoda aur short, ya LinkedIn / Quora / official report format mein bhi tweak kar dunga 💪

Misleading claims and poor ROI — Do not recommend

I am writing to express my extreme dissatisfaction with any program in Scaler. The enrollment was based on what I believe to be fraudulent representations regarding guaranteed interviews with Tier-1 tech companies and significant salary increases.
The reality of the service provided contradicts the sales pitch: the curriculum is substandard, and the support infrastructure is non-existent. Furthermore, the placement assistance is inadequate for experienced professionals; as a candidate with 6+ years of experience, being sent 15k/month job leads is unacceptable. I have also observed that the placement statistics provided during the sales process do not reflect current reality. I have incurred a financial loss of 4 lacs and strongly caution others against this platform.

Practical DSA & SQL Course for Real Interviews

I joined Scaler as a backend developer with 1 year of experience. After completing 2 years of experience, I took a career break. After an 8-month gap, I was able to secure a job by preparing on my own using Scaler’s resources. I am also still eligible for Scaler placements. This DSA and SQL course covers exactly what companies expect in real interviews and on the job.

Good But not best

Honestly i felt this course is best for the people who are already in to the backend development or willing to go for backend/ front end development. I joined this course to learn data engineering module. I felt the amount of assignments / efforts they kept for Backend development is more compared to Data Engineering module and opportunities are also bit less compared to backend/front end development

Amazing experience

I am planning to transition from a non-tech to a tech role, and this course was a game-changer for me. The structured curriculum and exceptional faculty helped me build a strong foundation in tech. I particularly appreciated the in-depth coverage of every concept, accompanied by a capstone project that allowed me to apply my new skills. The system design module was a highlight, and I'm confident it will serve me well in my new role. My problem-solving skills have improved significantly, and I credit this course for preparing me for the switch.

My honest experience after 6 months

Great platform for structured learning. I joined to get better at problem-solving, and I can see the improvement in my daily coding tasks. The approach is practical rather than just theoretical, which I appreciate. It pushes you to get slightly better every day. Highly recommended for working professionals feeling stuck.

Transitioning to be among the best

I joined Scaler Academy in 2021 and for the sole reason to be disciplined and organised in my upskilling journey and I am glad I was able to achieve that. The course structure was very organised to cover end-to-end content and best in class instructors to deliver the content. Rest the platform is very intuitive and engaging to make you want to learn everyday. The process was hectic for sure along with job and needed an individual to show lots of discipline and character but it’s all worth in the end.

My heart felt review

I completed the DevOps, Python, DSA, Linux, and Advanced DSA modules at Scaler Academy, along with multiple hands-on projects, and the overall experience has been truly transformative for my career.The curriculum is extremely well-structured and industry-relevant. The mentors break down complex concepts into simple, understandable explanations. The DSA and Advanced DSA sessions helped me strengthen my problem-solving skills, while the DevOps and Linux training gave me practical, job-ready knowledge.Projects were one of the best parts of the program — they were designed to reflect real-world challenges, which helped me gain confidence in applying what I learned. The doubt-clearing sessions and community support were always reliable and motivating.Scaler not only helped me improve technically but also guided me in interview preparation and career growth. I truly appreciate the support and guidance I received throughout the journey.Overall, Scaler Academy has played a major role in boosting my skills and preparing me for the next step in my tech career. I highly recommend it to anyone serious about leveling up in software or DevOps.

Total Waste of Money – A Complete Debt Trap

Good start, weak finish. If you don’t clear mocks, you lose placement access. Company list is tiny and barely hires freshers. Feels more like a marketing trap than a career program. I fell for it and have been jobless for a year. Total money trap.

DevOps/Cloud Engineer Course

I went through the DevOps/Cloud Engineer course, and honestly, it delivers exactly what most courses fail at: real industry experience. The instructors aren’t generic trainers—they actually work in the field, so everything they teach is based on how things are done in actual companies. No outdated theory, no fluff.The best part is the hands-on assignments. Every module comes with practical tasks that force you to actually build, break, and fix things the way you'd do in a real job. From containerization to CI/CD to cloud deployments, you’re not just watching videos—you’re doing the work. And that builds confidence fast.

Truly Worth It – Scaler Helped Me Advance My Career

I completed my Scaler Academy course in 2024, and it was one of the best learning experiences I’ve had. The instructors were extremely knowledgeable and always approachable. They cleared every single doubt I had with patience and made sure I truly understood each concept.
The mock interviews, especially the AI-based ones, were a great addition. they helped me gain confidence and improve my communication for real interviews. My mentors were always there whenever I needed guidance, whether it was about concepts, career direction, or placements.
The placement portal is also very well-organized. There are new opportunities listed almost every day, and applying through the portal is quick and smooth. Scaler’s team also keeps you updated about your application status and even shares useful details like company information and salary range.
Overall, Scaler played a big role in shaping my professional journey, and I’d highly recommend it to anyone serious about growing in software development.

DSML review

Overall good experience but job assurance is not upto the mark Instructors are very good and help a lot with the study material. Course is well designed to the current market standards and also very helpful. Flexible with pause when you need to freshen up your backlogs and business case study also help a lot to prepare as per market standards

It is a great course to upskill

Course on the whole is great. Curriculum is good and instructers are good. If you want to upskill and learn, I totally recommend. But don't just join because you need placement assitance. If you want to learn and grow, great place.

Not worth your money

They have planned for easier module for first 30 days so that you won't ask for refund and you continue your course but later the modules are good only but once you finish a stage of learning then the authors are not good.With regard to placement it is the worst!! They have very limited companies that too they won't hire freshers, maximum is internship and after that you are another unemployed in the market.
