Top Rated RPNow Alternatives
As the Director of Institutional Technology at Horry-Georgetown Technical College, I have found RPNow to be easy to deploy and use. I've run a pilot of RPNOW and have had zero problems with my faculty and students accessing and using RPNow. RPNow has solved overcrowding at our Testing Centers and is becoming our go to solution for online or at a distance exams.
However the best part of RPNow is their team members. Fantastic support, fantastic response times, and a willingness to listen to critical feedback and incorporate feature requests into updates of the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There isn't very much to dislike. One suggestion that I've given as a feature request is how completed proctored reviews are delivered and the amount of detail at a glance that is provided to the instructor so that the instructor can focus only on any flagged suspicious activity and ignore proctored results that do not have any suspicious activity.

There is nothing great to say about this product really. The only thing that works is the customer service reps that help with all of these issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are so many technical issues that come about using RPNow, one being that it kicks you out of the system before even logging on to the certain area you're looking for. Very annoying. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The best thing about RPNow has to be the many different checkpoints that it offers to ensure student's compliance with the exam-taking instructions. There is a visual inspection, an audio inspection, and also the ability to keep track of open programs on the computer in use. There is also the ability to take a practice test , which allows students to familiarize themselves with the platform, before the actual exam. This is very useful as the platform itself is a bit complicated, and several students have some small difficulty logging in successfully the first time. Practice tests, I believe, are not charged for, since there is no assessment begin performed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It is a bit tedious for the student. Requires a log in process that many students get confused by because of a 'password login.' I've also had a number of students complain that the program just shuts down on them during the exam.
Also, it has some difficulty working with Safari Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Many of our students travel through the summer. RPnow gives students the option of taking their proctored final exam while away. Our students work through their online courses at their own pace. Having RPnow, students can take their final exam as soon as they are finished with all of their coursework.
We have worked with RPnow for the past two summers. RPnow staff members help us manage our teachers and proctored tests. Additionally, RPnow worked with us to provide a simple way to submit a parental agreement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not really a dislike, more of a miscommunication on our part. Typically we handle all the support issues for our courses. RPnow offers students with wonderful support. Our students are often confused on which support path to follow.
Our students travel the world. We have run into issues for students that are traveling outside of the country and their ability to run they system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
