BlowStack vs Tutorials Dojo
BlowStack was built for one thing: passing cloud certification exams. Every piece of it was made for that one platform and fits the others: from any question you open the services and concepts behind it and the interactive lesson for it, and the practice exams, courses, services and concepts work as one. Tutorials Dojo is built for the exam as well: practice exams sold per certification, with video courses, study guide eBooks and labs as separate products, for AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and Kubernetes.

Where each one is the better pick
Where Tutorials Dojo is the better pick
- Cheaper for one certification: USD 11.24 or USD 13.49 on sale (regular USD 14.99 or USD 17.99) against USD 19.99.
- A full year of access to a certification, against 3 months.
- Video courses and hands-on labs in a sandbox, for those who want them next to the practice exams.
- Other clouds: practice exams for Azure, Google Cloud and Kubernetes as well.
- A discussion board where instructors answer questions.
Not the pick if you are preparing for several certifications, or want lessons you work through instead of videos and eBooks.
Where BlowStack is the better pick
- Cheaper for several certifications: USD 19.99 for 3 months of all of them, paid once, against USD 64.99 for Tutorials Dojo's subscription or USD 11.24 to USD 13.49 on sale for each one.
- More questions: about 868 exam questions per certification against 4 to 9 sets of 65 or 75.
- A practice exam simulator you shape yourself: practice mode with your own question count, time, scope and question types, instead of fixed sets.
- A modern way of learning: lessons in which you draw the architecture diagram, trace the flow and spot the flaw, instead of videos and eBooks.
- Everything in one place: the services and concepts behind each question open inside the app, written for the exam, instead of links out to other pages.
- Repetitions: every missed question comes back until you get it right.
- A pass probability after 100 answered questions, where Tutorials Dojo gives the score of a randomized test.
- The date of the last update on every practice exam and course page.
Not the pick if you want video courses, or a sandbox to practice in a live AWS environment.
Frequently asked questions
Does Tutorials Dojo have practice exams?
Yes, that is its main product: 4 to 9 timed sets of 65 or 75 questions per AWS certification, in timed, review, section-based and randomized modes, with 1 year of access. BlowStack adds a practice mode you shape yourself and, from every question, the services, concepts and an interactive lesson behind it.
Is BlowStack cheaper than Tutorials Dojo?
For one certification, no: Tutorials Dojo is USD 11.24 or USD 13.49 on sale (regular USD 14.99 or USD 17.99) for a year, BlowStack USD 19.99 for 3 months. For several, yes: BlowStack's USD 19.99 covers every certification, paid once, and never renews, while each Tutorials Dojo course is sold on its own and its subscription is USD 64.99 for the same 3 months.
Can I use BlowStack and Tutorials Dojo together?
Yes. Tutorials Dojo's video courses and sandbox labs add what BlowStack does not have; BlowStack is where the exam is practiced at volume: thousands of questions with every option explained, exam and practice modes, a pass probability and interactive lessons.
Our view
A question bank can't stay current and reliable on what students remember from the exam. Each candidate sees one exam form and works from memory, and AWS's certification agreement forbids sharing exam content. Feedback on which topics appeared can help, but it can't replace writing questions from the sources and checking them.
