CompTIA Cloud+ Certification: Exam Vouchers, Practice Tests and Video Training

CompTIA Cloud+ is a certification that validates your ability to design, deploy, secure, and manage cloud infrastructure, regardless of which cloud platform an organization uses. It’s designed for IT professionals with hands-on experience who want to demonstrate real-world cloud skills.

While AWS, Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud each offer certifications focused on their own platforms, Cloud+ is vendor-neutral. It validates that you can architect, secure, operate, and troubleshoot cloud environments across multiple platforms. That reflects the reality of most organizations today, which often rely on a mix of cloud providers rather than a single vendor.

The current exam is CV0-004. Total Seminars sells the official voucher 11% below retail, plus the video training and practice tests that get you there.

What the Cloud+ Exam Covers

Time and questions: You get 90 minutes for up to 90 questions. That’s about a minute per question, which is tighter than it sounds once performance-based questions come into play.


Performance-based questions: Instead of asking you to describe a task, these drop you into a simulated environment and ask you to carry it out. There are usually only a handful on the exam, but each one takes longer than a multiple-choice question, so budget your time.


Passing score: 750 on a scale of 100–900. CompTIA doesn’t penalize wrong answers, so answer every question, and don’t let one simulation eat the clock. Flag it, move on and come back.


Practice the pacing, not just the content: Our TotalTester practice tests run in both practice mode and exam mode, so you can rehearse working against the clock before test day.


Cloud+ validates the skills to:

  • Design cloud architecture that meets business and technical needs
  • Provision, configure and maintain cloud resources
  • Monitor, scale and automate cloud operations
  • Secure cloud environments and support governance, risk and compliance
  • Troubleshoot common problems with cloud resources, networks and security

Cloud+ Career Value: What about a JOB?

Every company that runs workloads in the cloud needs people who can deploy, secure, monitor and troubleshoot them. Because Cloud+ is vendor-neutral, it shows employers your skills work on any platform, not just one provider’s.


What Cloud+ pays: In 2026, reported salaries for cloud roles that use Cloud+ skills range from about $86,000 to $128,000 a year, depending on role, region and experience. Payscale reports an average of $86,000 for Cloud+ holders, with a range of $60,000 to $153,000.


Approved for DoD 8140: Cloud+ is approved for four US Department of Defense 8140 work roles:

  • Network Operations Specialist
  • System Administrator
  • Enterprise Architect
  • Security Architect

That makes it a strong credential for government positions and defense contractor work.


Recognized across the industry: CompTIA also maps Cloud+ to the same roles in the NICE Workforce Framework, the standard used across the cybersecurity and IT industry. If you manage servers, networks or cloud resources, Cloud+ gives you a credential employers recognize.

Cloud+ vs AWS, Azure and Google Certifications

an AWS certification says nothing about what you can do in Azure.

The provider certifications teach you one platform very well. That is useful, and it is also the limit of it — an AWS certification says nothing about what you can do in Azure. Cloud+ works the other way round. It certifies the concepts that hold across providers: how to size and design an environment, how to secure identity and data, how to deploy and migrate workloads, how to operate and troubleshoot what you have built. Those skills move with you when your employer changes platform, adds a second one, or asks you to work out why the two of them disagree. In practice the two are complementary rather than competing. Cloud+ gives you the vocabulary and the architecture; a provider certification proves you can apply it in their console. Most employers hiring for cloud infrastructure want evidence of both.

CompTIA Cloud+ FAQs

Which exam do I need to pass to become CompTIA Cloud+ certified?

Cloud+ is a single exam, CV0-004, which launched on 24 September 2024 and is the current version.

What is on the CompTIA Cloud+ exam?

Six domains: Cloud Architecture 23%, Deployment 19%, Operations 17%, Security 19%, DevOps Fundamentals 10% and Troubleshooting 12%. DevOps Fundamentals is new to this version of the exam.

How long is the exam and what score do I need to pass?

You get 90 minutes for a maximum of 90 questions, and you need 750 to pass on a scale of 100 to 900.

What kinds of questions will I see?

Multiple-choice and performance-based. The performance-based questions put you into a simulated environment and ask you to carry out a task rather than describe it. CompTIA does not use negative marking, so answer every question.

How much does the CompTIA Cloud+ certification cost?

Total Seminars sells the official CompTIA Cloud+ voucher at $356.99, about 11% below CompTIA’s $399 retail price. The voucher is valid for one year and a Retake Option is available — buy it in the same order as the voucher.

Do I need experience before taking Cloud+?

There is no formal prerequisite, but Cloud+ is not an entry-level certification. CompTIA recommends two to three years of hands-on experience as a systems administrator or cloud engineer, and assumes CompTIA Network+ and Server+ knowledge or the equivalent.

Is Cloud+ vendor neutral?

Yes, and that is the point of it. AWS, Azure and Google each certify you on their own platform. Cloud+ certifies that you understand cloud architecture, deployment, operations and security in a way that transfers between them — which matters, because most organizations run more than one.

How long is my Cloud+ certification valid?

Three years from the date of certification, renewable through the CompTIA Continuing Education programme. Passing Cloud+ also renews your A+, Network+ and Security+ for another three years.

Which Total Seminars products should I study with?

Start with the CompTIA Cloud+ TotalVideo course — 7+ hours across 11 chapters and 52 lessons — and add TotalTester practice tests to confirm you are ready before you book the exam. Both are delivered online through the Total Seminars Training Hub at hub.totalsem.com and work on any device.
