Reviewer's verdict

It's a quick, skippable product demo. You learn what Microsoft wants you to *think* Copilot can do, not how to actually make it do those things.

Who it's for

Absolute beginners looking for a quick product tour of Copilot's intended use cases for IT.

Who should skip it

Anyone looking for hands-on practice, prompt engineering techniques, or real troubleshooting examples.

Pros

  • Very short and easy to complete.
  • Gives a high-level overview of potential Copilot use cases.
  • Up-to-date with current Microsoft 365 features.

Cons

  • No real interaction; it's a slideshow of prompts and imagined outputs.
  • The 'troubleshooting' example is superficial and unrealistic.
  • Feels more like marketing material than a training module.

The 'Incident Investigation' section was the most telling. The sample prompt is something like, 'summarize recent network alerts and suggest potential root causes.' A perfect AI response pops out, and... that's it. We move on. There’s no sandbox, no lab, no alternative prompts to try if the first one fails. It’s a PowerPoint presentation disguised as a training module.

I get that these are quick intros, but it feels dishonest to frame this as learning. You're just watching a demo. The prompts are so generic they feel like they were written by marketing for a keynote. I didn’t come away with a single new technique for writing prompts, just a list of things Microsoft hopes its product can do one day. I learned more from a single Reddit thread.
