E-Book version is not available,
By Eunice Lum (Toronto Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: CISSP Boxed Set (Hardcover)
Amazon claims the CD-ROM contains the E-Book version for the CISSP All-in-One Exam Guide, Fifth Edition -- well, it is not true. There is no E-Book in the CD-ROM. I spoke the Tech Support (LearnKey) and they told me that it was printed in error. How long does it take Amazon to correct... well, that is the question. I also spoke to Customer Service at McGraw-Hill and they are not much help either... they said there is nothing they can do about it and that I have to talk to Amazon -- Really?!

Inconsistent, poorly formed content,

This review is from: CISSP Boxed Set (Hardcover)
The quality of the printed study content varies significantly. Much of it is spot on; it's up to date and relevant. However, the author often drops into explaining basics that shouldn't be necessary for any computer professional. At other times, the author seems to state opinions and speculation as fact. The book desperately needs review from a technical editor. Much of the content could be excised in order to make a much, much smaller and more focussed book.The practice exam content is good. Many would do well to purchase that and decide whether they need the remaining content, or whether this set is the best source of that material. Some of the advertised study content is completely missing from the CD. What's present is difficult to use if you aren't using Windows, as the primary navigation tools are Windows executables. (Really? For platform-neutral content? In 2011?) All in all, the set seems to have been assembled rather ad hoc, and bulked up with unnecessary material that doesn't justify the list price. 5 of 7 people found the following review helpful

I wouldn't recommend buying this book set to anyone. In the boxed set they claim to send one CD with -1. 1200+ practice questions - but there were only 500 of them I assume master exam and practice exam have different set of questions. Otherwise there are only 250 of them) 2. E-Book version of CISSP All-in One - but there is no PDF or any online version of the book present in CD. They have created a folder called "eBook" in the CD but it only contains one html index page The whole reason of buying Box set is to have access to more practice questions but this purchase did not serve the purpose. Also in the book few pages are blank. It looks like printing mistake and those pages are just not there.

This set is awesome. I bought this before I went to the boot camp thru Global Knowledge. In all honesty, I didn't study as much as I should've prior to taking the course but found it funny that Global Knowledge issued this book to students as part of the course. The book has a lot of great info and it's written in a manner that makes for easier reading, if that makes any sense. I liked this boxed set mostly for the software that comes with it. I read each chapter in the book once, maybe twice depending on the topic, and then used the practice exam software to help reinforce what I just read. The software is awesome!With all of that being said, this set is essentially (I really don't want to say worthless here) unusable now because the exam has changed. Meaning, ISC2 changed up the domains and content on the exam beginning January 1st. They added content on VM technology and cloud computing -- neither of which are touched in this boxed set. While I would highly recommend this boxed set to anyone wanting the CISSP certification, I can't recommend this set due to the change in the exam. A lot of the material hasn't changed but there's a good portion that did and you don't want to chance a $600 exam on something like this. Good luck to everyone planning to take this exam! I passed on my first try thanks in large part to this boxed set. |
