Proctor Exams vs YouTestMe Proctoring

Proctor Exams is an online platform for companies and educational institutions administering exams remotely. Test takers can complete exams from home, work, or the field, while organisations create and manage tests, monitor results, and export reports. Depending on an exam’s security level, the service can verify identity and record the test taker’s screen and webcam. Live proctoring and browser lockdown are listed capabilities, and recordings are retained for 90 days. Proctors review completed tests and verify files for the selected security level, while most tests provide instant results. Personal information and results are stated to be visible only to the administrator. The service runs on web, Windows, and macOS. Listed prices are $45, paid once for a one-hour exam and $55, paid once for a two-hour exam. The recording tool requires a supported computer, webcam, storage, and display resolution.

YouTestMe Proctoring provides monitoring and supervision options for remote exams: automated proctoring, live human proctoring, and record-and-review workflows. During live sessions, proctors can view candidate video, audio and screen sharing, while AI-assisted detection highlights suspicious behavior. For identity checks, candidates capture or upload an ID document for comparison with a live camera image. Record-and-review sessions include video, audio and screen capture, with AI-preflagged moments for later review. Integration options include SDK, LTI and iFrame, as well as Moodle proctoring integration. The LTI workflow can sync assignments and grades, support single sign-on and launch tests from LMS courses. Hosting choices include cloud, private cloud and on-premise, with configurable retention and regional data storage. The maker states that it holds ISO 27001 and ISO 9001 certifications, complies with GDPR and encrypts data at rest and in transit. Its Trust Center reports an annual SOC 2 Type II examination for Security, Availability and Confidentiality. The Standard Edition has a $100 monthly minimum, plus usage-based charges for completed proctored exams, and includes 30 days of recording storage. A free Standard Edition trial is offered without a stated duration.
