ProctorU is more of a hassle than Proctorio by far. I wonder why the professor uses it when there's really no need since the exam is open book/note? I checked my system ahead of time and had no issues, but when I checked right before the exam I had all sorts of issues. It took around 10-15 minutes to get everything done before I started the exam. All in all I had an okay experience, but don't see the point in using it. Grades are posted FYI

It took a little while for the ISDS 705 test to get started but after all the red tape, there was no issues. I don't understand why we have to have it proctored with open book/notes but I also don't want him to change his mind and not allow open notes and book. I will take the hassle of ProctorU to be allowed open book and notes!!

Perhaps the managers at ProctorU should enroll in classes at LSUS to learn how to run a more effective operation! Seriously, if the customer experience expressed here is representative of the whole, they shouldn't be too pleased with themselves. For their part, I think LSUS admin could evaluate the proctoring services and choose one across the program rather than engaging multiple vendors. As for the question of why proctoring is even needed for an open book test, this is speculation but I wonder if it has something to do with accreditation requirements, as in: "X number of courses must use proctoring."
