Eklavvya

Overview

Eklavvya is a managed assessment platform for institutions and enterprises running remote evaluations. It is strongest for programs that need varied question formats, exam oversight, and connections to existing business or learning systems. Its main trade-offs are browser-based exam delivery, no customer-server hosting, and a free tier capped at 25 exams.

Key features

Flexible assessment design

Question banks support image, audio, objective, and subjective questions, while the platform also handles coding challenges, voice assessments, and AI interviews. Administrators can set passing marks, organize questions by topic, apply negative marking, and control difficulty. This breadth suits organizations running different kinds of assessments in one program; teams seeking a non-browser exam delivery mode should look elsewhere.

Proctoring and oversight

Eklavvya offers remote proctoring for authenticating and authorizing candidates and controlling online exams. Image capture, video, AI proctoring, and screen sharing are supported on Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS devices. Audit logs let administrators review activity by candidates and administrators during exams, adding an operational record alongside the proctoring controls.

Results and integrations

Results include rankings, individual and batch question-attempt analysis, and score and group-performance analysis. Integrations with ERP, LMS, CRM, and custom applications can use SSO and REST APIs. The documented APIs cover candidate and exam workflows, scheduling, results, face verification, proctoring image analysis, and code grading, making Eklavvya a better fit when assessment needs to connect to existing systems than when a standalone exam tool is sufficient.

Eklavvya states that it is CERT-IN certified for software security and ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certified for information security management.

Pricing

Eklavvya uses a freemium model. Free costs nothing and includes 25 exams and 1 GB of storage. The Free plan's 25-exam allowance is counted in exam credits based on candidate exam instances, so a cohort of candidates can use credits faster than the exam count alone might suggest. Email-only technical support also makes this tier better suited to smaller or lower-support needs.

Standard has custom pricing and includes 500 exams and 5 GB of storage. Professional also has custom pricing, with 500 exams and 10 GB of storage. Enterprise has custom pricing and 20 GB of storage; it includes an account manager for technical support. Standard and Professional are the clearest step up for organizations that need more storage than Free, while Enterprise is the plan with named account-level support. The published plan details do not establish other differences between these tiers.

Platforms

Exams are delivered through a browser. The platform lists Android, iOS, macOS, Windows, and API support, and those four operating systems are supported for image-capture proctoring, video proctoring, AI proctoring, and screen-sharing exams. Eklavvya is delivered as managed SaaS and cannot be hosted on a customer's own server, ruling it out for organizations that require self-hosting.

Who it's for

Eklavvya is a strong fit for institutions and enterprises that run remote assessments, need multiple question and exam formats, and want proctoring, analytics, or integration options in the same platform. It is less suitable for organizations that require self-hosting, need exam delivery beyond a browser, or expect extensive support on a free plan.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Broad question and assessment formats support varied evaluation programs.
• Pros: Proctoring, identity verification, audit logs, and result analysis cover both exam oversight and follow-up.
• Pros: SSO, REST APIs, and integrations across ERP, LMS, CRM, and custom applications can connect assessments to existing workflows.
• Cons: Managed-only SaaS prevents organizations from running the application on their own servers.
• Cons: Free is limited to 25 exam credits and 1 GB of storage, with technical support by email only.
• Cons: Browser delivery may not suit programs that require a different exam-delivery mode.

Alternatives

For a different free-tier allowance, SpeedExam offers 25 exam attempts per month, 2,000 questions, and 100 MB of storage on its FREE plan at no cost; its Professional plan is $20 a year. Choose it when those published quotas or that stated annual price better match your needs. ClassMarker is another freemium option with a free trial; its Professional 2 plan includes up to 1,000 credits per month, AI exam proctoring, and custom certificates, with a monthly billing option and two months free on the yearly plan. Consider it when those plan details are a closer fit.

ThinkExam has a Standard plan at $3,125 a month, billed annually, with 100 users, unlimited quizzes, two admin panels, a candidate panel, and email/ticket support; consider it if that package suits your program. FastTest is a paid option with a free plan and trial, with pricing starting at $6,750 a year and depending on organization qualification; consider it if its qualification-based pricing model fits. Numbas, OpenEMIS Admissions, TCExam, and MegaExams are free alternatives. For a wider comparison, see Online Exam Software or Lockdown Browser Software.

Verdict

Choose Eklavvya if your institution or enterprise needs a broad remote-assessment toolkit with proctoring, analytics, and integration options. Its mix of assessment formats and operational controls is the central reason to choose it; managed-only hosting and the Free plan's credit cap are the strongest reasons to look elsewhere.
