I wonder how many have used both? If they only used one, it will be difficult to compare.

I used the book "The PMI-ACP Exam" by Andy Crowe. It was a good book.
I have not read the book by Mike Griffiths.
I started reading "PMI-ACP Exam Prep Study Guide" Vivek Vishamayan but stopped in the middle of the book as I spotted too many mistakes.

If you have a good understanding of Agile (Scrum, Kanban, FDD, Highsmith's Agile Project Management. DSDM, Crystal), you will find the exam questions easy - and you do not need a prep course or prep book.

The most difficult part is figuring out what PMI had in mind when writing the question. There are several questions that only mention Agile but not what kind of Agile (Scrum/FDD/DSDM/...) and depending on if it is Scrum or FDD different answers would be correct.
