Huh.... I guess I am not the only one who thought they were good:
Here are some replies that people have sent me:
Nice write-up! I am a CyscoExpert fan as well after working with Naren
and Bahram for a week in September preparing for the Security lab. I
decided to not make the public recommendation like you did (you see why)
but I have been replying privately regularly to anyone who posts asking
where to go - and to you! I know the two of them at CXP appreciate you
saying the kind words, but the flack from the group is just merciless.
Take care!

It is only a plug when you get something in return. You can take it or
leave it because I don't get anything if you train there. But I can tell
you I would not have succeeded without them. So, continue wasting your
money and time elsewhere... no worries for me.

Hello,
I passed the CCIE R&S lab exam on October 23, 2006. I had
been working my way towards this exam for years by earning my CCNP,
CCDP, CCSP and CCIP. I passed the CCIE written in 2001 (I never
attempted the lab) and again 12/2005. I had gone to many Cisco based
GlobalKnowledge classes, I read all of the main-stream CCIE books (Doyle
Vol. 1 and 2, etc.) But I was still intimidated by the lab. I asked my
Cisco technical account rep. who was a CCIE what he recommended as the
last steps to prepare for the exam. He told me go talk to the CCIEs at
CyscoExperts (CXP) in Arlington Heights, IL.
I signed up for a week of R&S training and quickly learned
that even though I configured routers and switches daily at work, I was
not prepared for what I would see on this exam. The exam is not
comparable to anything you will see or need to do to get the job done on
a real production network. Yes, it covers all the topics you need to
know to be a good network engineer but at the same time you will have to
configure things exactly the way they tell you to with one hand tied
behind your back. What I mean is, you will need to read the questions
every word. This is where Cysco Experts took me to the next level.
As I said, a Cisco employee who earned his CCIE did his
training at CXP. I was surprised at the time that Cisco would not train
their employees internally. But after spending a few more weeks at CXP
with two of their double CCIEs (Naren and Bahram) I saw why Cisco sent
their employees there for lab training. In fact, students were there
from all over the world. While I was there, I spoke with students who
came all the way from the UK, Kenya, Australia and across the US. The
reason is that their program is the best. They know exactly what you
need to look for to pass the lab exam. They will make you aware of all
the tricks you will see. As I said, just knowing how to configure
routing, switching, QOS, etc is not enough. You need to be able to read
the questions and understand what they are looking for. This is where
CXP CCIEs will help put you in the best position to pass the exam. After
going through their carefully designed lab simulations, the CCIE exam
will seem easy!
!
Read my comments on their website along with all their other
CCIE testimonials at www.cyscoexperts.com or call toll free
1-866-CyscoXP. Ask for Naren and tell him Dennis sent you! You will be
thanking me! Fell free to email me with any questions at
dnesnidal@comcast.net or dennis.nesnidal@motorola.com
