“ExamSoft: A Mixed Bag of Great Security and Limited Customization”

ExamSoft has numerous security elements but the problem is that the lockdown settings are not very customizable. Balancing security and providing students with access to permitted resources during exams would benefit both students and instructors.

Performance of ExamSoft Across Market Features

ExamSoft Likes & Dislikes

Like

Our academic standards depend on ExamSoft technology to decrease cheating opportunities during tests. The lockdown browser enables me to trust that students remain focused on their learning materials.

Like

ExamSoft was a hopeful remedy for remote proctoring during the conversion to online exams. Student activity was easily controlled and cheating was prevented which brought a level of comfort and academic honesty.

Like

It ensures secure testing and offers robust reporting.

Dislike

Students frequently struggle with the offline testing function. My classes suffered from delayed grading when offline exams produced syncing errors which needed a person to get student data.

Dislike

Some exams sat for on ExamSoft became overly controlled when the lockdown feature of the system was adopted. Students did not have access to items such as books or handheld calculators allowed during the test.

Dislike

The software is extremely time consuming qnd overly complicated to set up and administer an exam. There are so many steps making a huge administrative burden. Having users take the exam through Examplify app creates many complications as well with long update times and reboots when we are trying to administer an exam.

    The Burden of Complexity: An Exploration into ExamSoft

    2.0
    Nov 18, 2024
    The ExamSoft platform is extremely complex to use and frustrating for many reasons. Having the ability to see detailed analytics and reports to measure learning effectiveness was the main reason we adopted this software, but the time and effort required to use it outweighs the benefits.

    The user experience for both proctors/facilitators and test takers is terrible. It is very difficult to administer the exam and then pull information or actionable insights.
