The course is good for getting an overview of IoT in farming, but learners looking for more technical depth or project-based content might feel it falls slightly short.

EE

4.0Reviewed Feb 11, 2026

If you’re purely looking for concepts and applications, it’s solid. But I wished there was more hands-on work with devices or real code — it stays more on what IoT can do rather than how to do it.
