FAQ on proctoring features

Who is OctoProctor designed for?

OctoProctor is used by universities, corporate training teams, and testing platforms. It supports a wide range of exam types, including high-stakes and low-stakes assessments, as well as admissions, certification, and internal training exams.

Do test takers need to install a separate app or plugin?

No. OctoProctor is fully browser-based, so candidates can take proctored exams directly in Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, Opera, or Safe Exam Browser without downloading any apps or plugins.

Which proctoring model is best for my organization?

It depends on your exam type. AI or automated proctoring works well for large-scale, on-demand exams. Live proctoring is better suited for high-stakes exams, where real-time human oversight is essential.

Does OctoProctor integrate with our LMS or testing platform?

Yes. OctoProctor integrates with major LMS and assessment platforms, including Moodle, Canvas, iSpring Learn, and Open edX, making it easy to manage exams without disrupting your existing workflows.

How does OctoProctor support data privacy and compliance?

OctoProctor is designed to meet common data protection standards and offers flexible data hosting options. We process only the data needed to deliver secure proctoring, and store all data in customer-selected AWS regions to meet residency and transfer rules.

Can OctoProctor support large-scale exams?

Yes. The platform is built to scale, whether you’re running a small group or thousands of test takers at once, without compromising performance or security. For example, OctoProctor supported an online Olympiad for 2,000 students, with reliable real-time monitoring of more than 1,000 simultaneous test takers. Note that for large scale exams, advance planning and coordination are essential.
