To begin my preparation, I purchased the IPexpert Voice Workbook and a bundle of 25 Voice online sessions. I also joined their online forum (Online Study List) for sharing knowledge and support with other members. For comparison purposes, I also purchased a couple of online sessions from other online rentals, and trust me when I say it's a HUGE difference. Compared to IPexpert, other online rentals were more expensive, and their technical support was either non-live, non-existence or much slower to respond.
Their live technical support was speedy, friendly, courteous, and professional. Similarly, their online forum provided a great source of information and support. It had a big community of users for sharing knowledge and two very competent and knowledgeable CCIE instructors and moderators for answering any question. Last but not least, IPexpert offered very affordable rates. I spent well over 50 online sessions and attended a voice Boot Camp at IPexpert's training facility in San Jose. IPexpert's workbook and boot camp provided me with a wealth of specific knowledge contents to pass my CCIE lab exam.
So, I say to all who are attempting a CCIE Voice lab exam... I highly recommend attending IPexpert's Voice boot camp or at the very least, get IPexpert's Voice workbooks. It is a wise investment if you are serious about pursuing a Cisco Voice CCIE certification. I have learned much, gained tremendous hands-on experiences with voice telephony and passed my CCIE lab exam as the result.
The experience of working with IPexpert & Proctor Labs was just invaluable. First of all, the excellent quality of the material delivered, the workbooks have very well designed exercises and multiple scenarios. I also bought some Proctor Labs online rack time, which was just what I needed the get all the excellent results at a really low price.
Last but not least is the Online Study List community, which could be seen as a continuation of the Boot Camp. The IPexpert instructors give their expert opinions, knowledgeable answers and useful tips on OSL to guide us to find the right solutions.
