Digiexam, an extraordinary option for online supervision of remote exams.

It is excellent for assessments that require multiple-choice options and even for exams that require developing a text description for each question, considering that answer automation facilitates the assessment process, generating results that can be communicated to students via email.

PROS

Digiexam is an excellent option to take an exam since it is multiplatform, we can use it both in Mac OS and in a Windows environment, after installing it locally and putting it into operation, it takes control of the computer's resources, which allows the participants to dedicate themselves to validate the knowledge gained without deviating or using any other installed software. In addition, Digiexam monitors the entire process and generates important information for the credibility of the evaluation.

CONS

Digiexam can take control of the time that is dedicated to the evaluation process and the participant must be attentive to be able to finish the set of proposed questions. It is important that there is good connectivity or stable Wi-Fi so that there are no problems during the process, however, the teacher or administrator of the evaluation process can help to unlock the exam in case of any problem. It works perfectly in Windows or Mac OS, pending the option of being able to use it on a virtual machine.

Reasons for switching to Digiexam

Very good recommendations from Digiexam, used to carry out certification evaluations for project managers in IPMA.

Swedish product customised for German online-testing needs

The DigiExam team really identifies themselves with their product. If there's a problem, they find a solution.

PROS

DigiExam has more than 10 years of experience in online-testing. It is easy to use, great for online-testing, also for high stake exams. And after some customisation now compliant with our German education laws. It's constantly updated so that it keeps up with our en vogue learning environment: Currently Aalen is in the top 10 for digital readiness among German universities.

CONS

The overall design could need a slight polishing but it's in making as we have been told.

Reason for choosing Digiexam

The possibility to customise the product for the German need was crucial.

High School review

fairly positive experience, like any software you have to learn the ins and outs and "gottchas" The Tech support is great, you can tell the company really cares about their software and their customers.

PROS

fairly straight forward to use as both teacher and student It works as advertised We use a lot of digital ink (pen) in our courses and Digi Exam can handle that pretty well

CONS

lockdown function stops the OneDrive Sync. users must reboot after taking an exam we could not get user authentication to Azure to work Does not link up to existing test banks by textbook publishers - can't really import them In Windows student software is Profile based - not machine based - so every time a different student logs into laptop you have to download and install the software Difficult for students to "show their work" in math because you have to keep scrolling up to see the problem and then scrolling down to write in the answer box when you have to write out multiple steps in the answer

DigiExam the company that cares

The overall experience is great from the support to the usage of the product we are very happy with DigiExam.

PROS

The live proctoring is the best feature and allows teachers to proctor on their own. The support ist next level and the best I can think of. We feel important for the company, our wishes are heard and developed, they care about us.

CONS

The quiz enginge could have more functions. We can create all of our exams but with more questions types we would expand to other topics of our institution.

Reason for choosing Digiexam

The live proctoring was an important feature and the data security was good enough for Germany

From a teacher of Learning Different students

Writing, administering, and grading tests is faster and more secure than ever with Digiexam.

PROS

Digiexam is intuitive and very easy to use. "Lock Down" is one of the best features! I appreciate the wealth of options for creating exams and the wealth of information I receive about my students, post-test. Digiexam makes it so easy to modify assessments to fit our students' needs. The Immersive Reader feature is a game-changer for our dyslexic students. Digiexam makes grading and sharing exams easy, as well.

CONS

It would be helpful for Digiexam to automatically renumber questions based on their position in the test. This is critical when moving questions up or down and when importing questions from other tests. Digiexam doesn't currently allow for "percentage correct" as a scoring option. Digiexam's printable tests aren't great. I usually have to copy/paste questions to another app to make the test usable for my students. Digiexam doesn't currently offer "matching" questions.

Reasons for switching to Digiexam

The company behind StarQuiz (Cosmic Soft) stopped updating the program, so it would no longer work with our new computers.

DigiExam is the solution for providing lockdown examinations/environment in a 1 to 1 BYO environment

From my initial demonstration of the product to the deployment support, everything about our DigiExam experience has been positive. Staff are friendly, knowledgeable, and supportive and seem to genuinely love their product. After using it for a few months now, I know why.

PROS

First it was the ability to lockdown student all BYO devices in a 1 to 1 school environment. Then it was the ease at which accessibility tools can be deployed to students who need them. Next was the 100% success rate with initial deployment across approximately 100 students. Then it was the ease with which I could integrate DigiExam into our LMS. Now it is how quickly teachers are creating and deploying examinations.At every stage DigiExam has impressed. Digiexam is an easy to use, feature rich, lockdown examination environment, which was exactly the product we were looking for. But most importantly, DigiExam just works.

CONS

The only con I have come across at this stage is that questions cannot have Part A and Part B. Thus if a series of questions use the same prompt, they cannot all appear on the same page. There is a simple work around where the question with the prompt can be duplicated, and then the question changed. After mentioning this in an onboarding meeting, the development team added finding a solution to their roadmap, such is there commitment to creating a comprehensive product.

DigiExam in education

PROS

easy, user friendly, fast grading for multiple choice sections, keep track of timing, variety of question format

CONS

often students are requested to insert a USB to turn in the assessment, the impossibility to add additional time when a student is locked out (or adding extra time manually if necessary), grading the essay/ writing section is very time consuming although I have created a color code to mark mistakes, I would love to be able to rearrange questions easily (it could be time consuming).

Long time use in US private school

This is a product that does exactly what is built to do, easy to use.

PROS

We really like how easy it is to create accounts and distribute exams. Grading is simple and the passback feature is good. The ability to adjust settings for students with accommodations (extra time, spell check, etc) works great.

CONS

The commenting on essays could use some improvement, it works but can be tricky to read comments in order.

Digiexam has gotten us through many years of innovation with a heart.

A tool can be brilliant, but what makes us stick to Digiexam, an already excellent solution, is the team of people who are our partners. At Digiexam, we have found responsive and responsible partners who stand by their product with unsurpassed service.

PROS

It is a sophisticated tool that responds to the needs of many teachers and styles of testing.

CONS

I wish pictures could be part of multiple choice answers.

The flexibility we gained through online testing did not just enable us going forward during the pandemic. It helps us creating a better exam experience for our students.

CONS

We often are asked about additional question types, such as hot spot or generation of variable based questions. Yet most scenarios can be build with some effort.

First year of use.

We are able to have safe digital exams where we can offer aid for those in need of adaptations. (text to speech and spelling for example) One added bonus is that there is no longer a need for printing paper exams. We have had a very good experience.

PROS

It's easy to use. There is a total lockdown of the computer and you kan use USB backup if you experience network issues.

CONS

We had some issues with some users not being able to create their accounts. But it was mostly user related and the support was very helpful.

Reason for choosing Digiexam

Very good personal treatment.

PROS

It is good that the computer is locked for other activities while the students are in the programme. It is easy to use and understand and it was to learn.

CONS

That you cannot start to correct a test before it is completed/ended. Some of my fellow users find it a bit organized and not so easy to find where to go.
