It's more than 5x the cost of CCCure, is it worth it?

I don't know. I always use Transcender when I can. This time I'm using both versions from Transcender for CISSP as well as cccure. Transcender is more standardized and the explanations are much better than cccure but it's more expensive.

Edit: I do love cccure though, don't get me wrong

I used both and I felt Transcender helped me more to emulate the real exam. they make you think.

CCCure helped you to drill the technical part.

I found the Transcender practice exams better than CCCure

The cheapest option is $169.99 that's a lot of money for practice questions, I'd rather do the questions from the newest books instead. The concepts are still the same. Eric Conrad's book coming out in November should be good.

What annoyed me was Transcender's update system. It never update the test material, but as soon as my subscription expired I got an email saying there was updated content available.

I used Transcender (pre-2015 exam change) and credit it heavily with helping me to pass, because of the explanations that points you directly to reference material to learn more about. YMMV.

How is it 5x the cost of CCCure? I must be looking at something different

How creditable are Transcender's? I have CCCure and have purchased ISC2 practice test. And I've taken the exam a few times so I know a good justification to kick out another $100 or so. How many questions are in their bank?

About 860(ish?) questions and about the same number of flash cards. They have explanations for all the correct/incorrect answers.

This sounds pretty good. Do you have to buy directly from transceder? Or is their product on ebay?

Transcender is top quality. It makes you think like the Psychometricians. However some of their questions will be very broad BUT with good explanations. I only use Transcender and the practice tests that comes with the books. DON'T use too many sources or else, you'll see some serious conflicts. Just my two cents.

Anyone using the Transcender CISSP Exam Practice questions at the moment ? Do they include all variety of questions, like hot spot, drag drop , scenario based etc. Also, their website keeps showing same number of practice questions & Flash cards, not sure if they keep revising ?

I noticed they have a number of options. One with an installable application and one that is browser based. Is one better than the other?

I do. Drag'n'drop is there, what's hot spot? and no scenario based. Don't know what flash cards are, I use only practice questions.

And regarding some questions on prices, I used CCCure's freepracticetests.org for half a year in 2014 and they were so-so, but Transcender which I use now is no better and may be even worse, that's my opinion. Not worth the money.
