ConductExam

What it is

ConductExam is an online examination and proctoring platform for institutions that run exams at scale: schools and colleges, coaching institutes, universities, government bodies and public sector undertakings, recruiters, scholarship testing programs, training and certification providers, and banking and insurance firms. It is sold by Conduct Exam Technologies LLP, which lists offices in Rajkot, Gujarat and New Delhi, India. The home page calls it an "AI-Powered Online Examination & Proctoring System" and promises "Zero downtime. Zero compromise."

The company's blog post on online exam software frames the product against simpler tools: "Consumer-grade quiz tools were designed for engagement and gamification. ConductExam was designed for integrity, scale, and institutional credibility." The same post says the platform "has been battle-tested by over 2,000 educational institutions and corporate organizations across 18 countries", and the home page says it is "Trusted by 2000+ institutions worldwide" and runs "1M+ Monthly Assessments".

The product range

ConductExam is a family of delivery engines rather than one web app. The product menu lists:

• Web Based Online Exam, a browser-based assessment platform.
• Computer Based Test (CBT), described as a "100% Offline assessment system".
• Offline Exam Software for secure testing over a local network (LAN).
• CD / USB Exam Software, for practice without internet.
• Native Android and iOS apps, which the home page calls "White-labeled iOS & Android applications" with push notifications, face recognition login and full offline sync support.
• Descriptive Test Software for long-form theoretical exams.
• Exam tools: proctoring, a question paper generator, dynamic tests and a question bank.
• A learning management system for delivering courses and learning content alongside assessments.

The home page groups the core into a "Three-Tier Delivery Ecosystem": global web scaling ("Scale to 25K+ concurrent users on our elastic infrastructure"), center-based offline testing with local server sync for zero-connectivity zones, and the native mobile apps. The menu also carries two products outside assessment, Bulk Cheque Printing ("Automated financial printing") and a fee management system.

Building exams

According to the FAQ, the question bank "supports more than 20 question types". It names single and multiple choice, fill in the blanks, matching matrices, subjective response fields, coding assessment environments, drawing questions and media-rich interactive queries, and says administrators can upload all of these in bulk from Word or Excel files. The blog describes a smart question bank that organizes questions by subject, topic, difficulty and type and can "Auto-generate unique papers from defined blueprints in seconds."

The blog also addresses staff who are not technical. It says the question builder "works like a word processor", paper generation is a guided wizard, and result publishing is a single click, and it claims faculty "consistently master it within a 2-hour training session", with role-specific video tutorials and live training from the onboarding team.

ConductExam also covers study material. The FAQ says educators can set up study centers where students reach video lectures, reference PDFs, notes and interactive practice papers, take mock tests at their own pace and "download branded achievement certificates". The blog adds certificate generation that produces "digitally signed, verifiable certificates for qualified candidates immediately upon result publication", on-screen evaluation of subjective answer scripts with annotation tools, model answer comparison and evaluator performance tracking, and white-label branding with the institution's logo, colors and domain across the exam portal.

Proctoring and exam security

The home page lists the proctoring features as face recognition to verify identity, a browser lock that restricts tab switching, external applications, screen sharing and unauthorized browsing, real-time activity monitoring, detailed proctoring reports for post-exam review and audit, and AI-based behavior analysis that flags unusual movements and multiple faces. The FAQ adds that the secure browser blocks copy and paste, disables multiple monitors and prevents navigation to other websites, and that auto-proctoring detects multiple faces, screen sharing, unauthorized devices and "background whispers", raising flags in real time.

The blog describes a layered setup for exams taken at home: the secure browser locks the device into exam-only mode, webcam monitoring looks for unauthorized persons, prohibited materials and suspicious gaze patterns, audio monitoring detects spoken prompts, and IP tracking and geofencing restrict access to approved locations. For the highest-stakes exams, human proctors watch a live dashboard of flagged candidates and can intervene by chat or end the session. The company's claim for the combination is "a more rigorous security environment than most physical exam halls." The same post describes live facial recognition with re-verification every few minutes and responses that are cryptographically signed and encrypted before transmission.

Offline and low-bandwidth delivery

For unreliable connections, the blog explains the local-server (intranet) mode: the entire question bank is downloaded and encrypted on the institution's own server before the exam, the exam runs on the local network without the internet, and results sync to the cloud afterwards. The blog also says the platform is designed to work on standard 3G mobile connections, that institutions can run supervised exam centers with shared computers in libraries or community halls, and that the mobile app lets a budget Android smartphone serve as an exam terminal.

Results and analytics

The blog says every student gets a report after each exam with overall score, subject-wise breakdown, time spent per section, accuracy per topic, comparison with the batch average and a study recommendation based on the weakest areas. Teachers see batch analytics, including an Item Analysis Report that shows which questions had the lowest correct-answer rate across the cohort. Administrators can compare batches, branches and exam cycles, looking at pass rates, average scores and top-performer percentages. Real-time dashboards show live participation and flagged candidates.

Integrations and onboarding

The blog says ConductExam provides RESTful APIs for two-way synchronization with Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas and custom institutional ERPs. Enrollment data, course registrations and hall ticket information can be pulled from an existing student information system, and results are pushed back to it after the exam.

Onboarding follows a four-week plan in the blog: platform setup, branding and administrator training in week 1; question bank migration from Word, Excel or PDF with automatic tagging in week 2; student and faculty onboarding with role-specific tutorials, practice exams and a dedicated helpdesk in week 3; and a live pilot exam with a small batch, a debrief and configuration changes in week 4. The company says most institutions are running live exams "within 30 days of signing up".

Security certifications, scale and pricing

The home page lists ISO 9001:2015, ISO 27001, GDPR compliance and SOC 2 Type II, along with 256-bit SSL for data in transmission, AES-256 encryption at rest and in transit, and automated daily backups with redundant disaster recovery. These are the company's own statements.

The figures on scale vary by page. The home page shows "99.9% Platform Uptime" and 25K+ concurrent users; the FAQ says the cloud instances can support "over 100,000 concurrent examination sessions"; the blog mentions "15M+ Exams Conducted" and national testing agencies running exams for 500,000 concurrent candidates.

The site publishes no prices; the calls to action are for an enterprise demo, a free demo, a demo exam and a free consultation. A chat widget on the site says it typically replies within 5 minutes, and sales and support have separate phone lines.

Who it suits

ConductExam fits institutions whose main problem is running many exams securely: coaching institutes running mock tests, schools and Olympiads, universities with entrance exams, government bodies and public sector undertakings, and recruiters assessing large candidate pools. The offline LAN, CBT and CD or USB options suit centers with poor connectivity, and the white-labeled apps and portal suit organizations that want exams under their own brand. The API links to Moodle, Blackboard, Canvas and ERPs matter to institutions that already keep records elsewhere. A teacher who only wants a quick classroom quiz is not the reader this product is built for; its demo-led sales and four-week onboarding are aimed at institutional rollouts.
