When to look elsewhere

Large universities needing LMS-deep integration, biometric identity vendors, or region-specific compliance packages may still prefer legacy enterprise stacks — we focus on fast, fair exams for growing programs.

Comparison questions

When should we choose SafeExam over Google Forms?

When you need timed delivery, tab switch signals, educator monitoring, autosave, and CSV exports aligned to registration fields — not informal surveys.

When should we choose SafeExam over Proctorio or Honorlock?

When enterprise surveillance, LMS-deep integration, or biometric identity is more than your risk model and budget require — and you need practical integrity this semester.

Does SafeExam replace a learning management system?

No. SafeExam focuses on secure exam delivery and integrity. Many institutions use it alongside an LMS or as a standalone examination layer.

Can SafeExam run MCQ and coding in one exam?

Yes. Mixed exams support multiple choice and sandboxed coding items with educator-reviewed AI drafting optional.
