What do you like best about Respondus Monitor?

Nothing for real, there isn't a single thing I enjoy about using the software, it only makes everything harder and more prone to failure. I can't understand why some professors insist on using when it doesn't really give them control Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondus Monitor?

I hate having to use it at all, it makes the process of answering an exam much more difficult and stressful with the added bonus that it can also freeze your device if it feels like it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Respondus Monitor:

Don't, you're not stopping cheaters from doing so by using the platform and end up penalizing everyone. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Respondus Monitor solving and how is that benefiting you?

Not one actually, the use of the platform would be enough if it was used in a classroom or the student doesn't have any other device to look things on, but given the situation the implementation was really poor and people just ended up using their phones or tablets while answering on the computer.

What do you like best about Respondus Monitor?

I like that it integrates easily in the LMS we are using at the university I work. We mainly use Respondus Monitor in tandem with Respondus Lock Down Browser in the quices section of Brightspace. Teachers only had to choose a password a few settings, and they are ready to go. It has many customizable options that offer teachers a tool to guarantee honesty in their students ' exams. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Respondus Monitor?

The installation process in the student's personal computers has been quite challenging sometimes. It would be great if this software could offer a more friendly setup process and automatization of settings for users, specially students with little technological and digital knowledge.

We are using Respondus Monitor to guarantee honesty in the admission exams to the university.

Interpretar el uso del licenciamiento (seats) ha sido un reto, adicional de dar soporte a errores de la herramienta ( en PCs) es complejo, se depende mucho de Respondus y las respuestas muchas veces son muy superficiales. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
