### "Hack The Box review" — 5.0/5

> **Tomasz** | *12 April 2025* | Package/Freight Delivery | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: - High-quality, in-depth technical content
- Well-designed, practical machines for hands-on learning
- Clearly defined career and certification paths
- Clean user interface
> 
> **Cons**: - The biggest issue is that sometimes machines stack in deploying mode, and you must wait or try to contact support
- Some of the virtual machines have bugs
- Some part need update like crackmapexec with newer nxc
- A couple of tasks in subtopics are very difficult compared to other parts of the course in some modules.
- For modules and paths, the UI in Academy is better than in Enterprise.
- Some tasks need a slight redesign - for example, the brute-forcing task, where most of the time is spent looking for the proper wordlist.
> 
> Overall, I love Hack The Box. I spend most of my free time there. I use the Academy, Enterprise, and CTF platforms, and all of them are excellent, with only a few minor issues.
