They are both reputable, but opinions vary on each vendor.

Ciscokits has quality stuff, just stay away from their kits that have 1900 switches - those are useless

CBT Nuggets is probably the gold standard for CCNA computer-based-training. They're expensive, but you get what you pay for. I had a hard time sitting if front of my computer, though. But that's my fault not theirs... They'll cover all the topics for the CCNA, but don't ever rely on only one source. Use them as part of your study, not just them alone.

CiscoKits is a little pricey, but they will sell you reliable equipment. They support what they sell.

On the other hand, they should quit selling 1900's as part of the kit. Selling 1900's as part of a CCNA kit is just silly. They should know better. They're all but useless as part of a CCNA lab.
