My Exeperience with examity

Your description of Examity pretty much hits the nail on the head. It’s not just frustrating; it’s expensive, time-consuming, and confusing as heck. And don’t get me started on the language proficiency thing – I’ve been there, trying to decipher what the proctor was saying and feeling like I needed a decoder ring.

Switching browsers because of bugs? Been there. Staring at a screen for half an hour, waiting to start the exam? Done that. The technical issues are like a never-ending saga, and it’s baffling how they haven’t sorted them out.

As for that support Zoom call that ended in a hang-up, I’m pretty sure that qualifies as a comedy skit in the “How Not to Provide Support” handbook.

But hey, it’s good to know we’re not alone in this, right? Misery loves company, they say. Let’s hope MongoDB takes note of our collective woes and helps make things better.

edit: just made a post about my experience.

I had to reschule twice regarding the name. Both the support team and the proctors are terrible. I have never had a worse exam experience in my life. Worse, I couldn’t even take the exam.

Just wanted to add my poor experience also, though we all understood clean desk policy, in spite of scanning the work table in live camera with no items, I was forced to open the table drawers which is not even closer to me. This is bed side table was not connected to my work table. That too these kind of annoying activities during minutes before exam kinds irritates !!

Hi,
Proctor is not given any time to view the result of exam. As soon as exam result loaded, he asks anything want to discuss, I told no and he abruptly ended the session without asking are you sure. I’m fed up. please share the result, whatever it may be and please share the marks on each topics and that will help to brush for upcoming exams/interview. Hope you will be helping out. Thank you!

I just had my exam… after almost 4 hours I was disconnected and had a really hard time to connect again… that second try didn’t even last 1 min and I was disconnected again.
When I managed to connect for a third time I only wanted to record my answers and forget about the exam for a while.
Instead a “sorry for the hassle” I got a " don’t disconnect again"…as if it had been me that I have nothing better to do.

Is there an alternative option? I wouldn’t want to go through this agarn if I can go to a physical location.

Going through a tiring experience of Scheduling my exam with Examity. After purchase I am re-directed to Schedule my Exam at Examity portal, here it get stuck on IDProof upload page, I have tried every approach that Examity chat experts have suggested, but none seems to work, their final conclusion was “it works at our end”.
Have dropped emails to their support mailbox which claims SLA of 1-2 hours, but no responses yet.
Appreciate any assistance in this regard as I want to put my energy in preparation for the exam.

Hello,
I am trying to reschedule my exam but I can’t, the examity page is down, from the comments I have seen it is not a good provider to present online certifications. Could you help me with this please?

Yes, I have the same problem. My proctor doesn’t have proficiency in English, their language is not clear. And this platform is horrible. I saw a question with two identical answers. In the last point, I didn’t pass in the exam, but is not clear wich questions I didn’t mark correctly. There is a percentege, but it is confusing.

Reading all of these reviews regarding the testing experience has me extremely nervous about taking the exam! I was about to register but came across this forum and now I am wondering if I should. Considering how much I have tried to prepare for this exam, I would hate to not be able to take the test due to staff/application related issues. Under normal circumstances, the worry should center around how prepared you are for the exam and not if you will even be able to even get to the point of taking the test.

Hi MongoDB, you should seriously consider changing your test partner. Examity’s support is just horrible. I have taken many certification test, the experience with Examity is just horrible.

Thanks Heather. I think MongoDB should provide an option for on-site exam at the exam centre. I read about ProctorU’s review, it doesn’t seem to be more promising than Examity.
