ExamOnline vs Inspera Integrity Browser

ExamOnline is cloud-based software for creating, scheduling, delivering and reporting on exams, with remote proctoring. Its monitoring combines AI and human supervision using webcam, microphone and screen activity. Exams can accept multiple choice, short and long answers, fill-in-the-blank responses, audio or video recordings, and file uploads. The workflow includes candidate registration, exam setup and scheduling, anti-cheating controls, digital delivery, evaluation management and result reporting. A secure browser can block copy-paste, new tabs and external apps; the product also describes identity checks and browser lockdown. ExamOnline says it integrates with existing learning management systems and testing platforms. It is presented for education, corporate, certification and government assessments, as well as hiring and learning and development. The listed platforms are Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows. Video and screen recordings are retained for 45 days by default, with longer retention possible under contract requirements. Pricing is on request for both customized and pay-as-you-go options; no prices are listed.

Inspera Integrity Browser is a desktop lockdown application for online assessments. It controls which applications, device content and external resources candidates can access during an exam. Institutions can use strict lockdown or permit selected materials such as specified PDFs and URLs. With Inspera Assessment, the browser can block copying and pasting into or out of the assessment and prevent screenshots. Inspera Proctoring integrations can add video, audio and screen recording for invigilators. Institutions may enable up to five third-party applications, although service-desk activation and IIB 1.16.16 or newer are required on Windows, and the option is unavailable on macOS. Students download the application through their institution’s Inspera portal; it stays inactive until an assessment is configured. It runs on Windows and macOS, not Linux, Chromebooks, virtual machines, tablets or phones. IIB is a paid add-on to Inspera Assessment, with pricing on request.
