Performance of Proctorio Across Market Features
Proctorio Likes & Dislikes
I think, below are the points which I like most about Proctoria: - Easy to use compared to other platforms I have used. Instructions for setup are clear. - It has good customer support, I had some issue in mock exam and they resolved it shortly. - It helps to maintain the integrity of the exam without failures.
Proctorio was unveiled to facilitate online assessment without demanding much manual intervention in invigilation. The capability of the cheating recognition contributed to the sense of accomplishment and ensured the credibility of the online classes.
My online courses Proctorio presented an opportunity for a possible practical remote proctoring tool. This ability to survey the students and report suspected cheating was satisfactory and ensured the purity of academics.
I have observed that sometimes Proctorio flags normal behavior as suspicious. Which can be improved. Having this running in the background during an exam can a bit distraction during the exam, as I found myself worrying about getting flagged instead of focusing on the exam. If your internet connectivity drops for some time, Proctorio freaks out.
Students are spied on for pretty much every minor move and glance, including looking away from the screen to pick up a pen, resulting in interruptions and begging. This not only takes so much of my time but also evokes anxiety in students.
It normally produces a lot of these false positive results. Proctorio would consider background movement or technical errors as cheating thus making me to review numerous notifications individually.

Proctorio's Approach to Online Exam Security Faces Criticism
Proctorio helps in maintaining the security of online exams but too many false positives negatively affect the program. Interferences and frequent interferences are counterproductive to assessment integration where only relevant channel interferences are required. - Computer FacilitatorGov't/PS/EdEducationReview Source
Exploring the Potential of Proctorio as a Remote Proctoring Tool
There is potential in the implementation of Proctorio as a tool for remote proctoring. The fact is that we need a more sophisticated flagging system that will not trigger false positives in the environment of an online exam. - System Engineer Manager10B+ USDIT ServicesReview Source
Proctorio's Exam Management: A Balance Between User-Friendliness and Sensitivity
Proctorio is quite good overall. It helps maintain exam integrity, which is important. The setup was straightforward and the support was decent. Sometimes it can be a bit too sensitive to movements. But it is mostly reliable. - ASSOCIATE DEANGov't/PS/EdEducationReview Source
Proctorio's Techniques Cause Student Anxiety During Exams
Proctorio allows us to identify when students are cheating and spying techniques stress students out, and make them anxious. This is quite demoralizing to the students during the test time and may not be the most efficient way of encouraging the students to be of good conduct. - EDUCATORGov't/PS/EdEducationReview Source
Navigating Proctorio: A New Tool for Remote Test Monitoring
I was introduced to Proctorio in 2020 as a new tool that we can use to monitor students when they take quizzes and tests remotely. There was a training session and our education consultants went into great length to acclimate us to the platform. It has not been easy using this platform, however.
