CFAI material is good enough for all 3 levels.Some people work full time hence may not have time to study the voluminous CFAI material. Hence the need for prep providers like Schweser, Elan, Stalla etc. I have used elan and found them to be very useful for Level 1. Ethics studied exclusively from CFAI text.Used their Question bank, did CFAI EOC twice, 2 Elan mocks and CFAI mock.This was more than enough for me.

The key to passing Level 1 is practice practice and practice questions from whichever prep provider you choose. If you have the time and the inclination you may choose to study only from CFAI text.Start early. study everyday. Good luck.
