## Reviews

### "A great tool for exam management" — 5.0/5

> **Nezda** | *14 June 2023* | Logistics & Supply Chain | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to set up, maintain and use. When I have any problems, the chatbox is almost always answered quickly and issue is resolved within 20 mins or so. They listen to our suggestions and take them on board.
> 
> **Cons**: I think all of our issues have been resolved and, where relevant, our suggestions have been taken on board and a permanent feature.
> 
> Previously, we held exams over Zoom, with the exam paper on a Word document. This posed various issues with cheating etc .Synap provides the delegate and exam management and security we need.

-----

### "Ease of use and customizability are key" — 4.0/5

> **Laura** | *26 July 2024* | E-Learning | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The team of developers and our account manager are great at providing support, accepting suggestions, and figuring out how to manage the requests to provide the service we need. It's an easy system, with surprisingly robust features.
> 
> **Cons**: Because we were using the system in a unique way, there were minor issues. Synap's team was able to help us through those issues.

-----

### "An expensive but not a happy experience" — 2.0/5

> **Declan** | *7 October 2025* | Medical Practice | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Variety of assessment modalities. Reasonably effective processes to contact and engage your 'student' group.
> 
> **Cons**: Not instinctive, nor intuitive and not easy to find your way around the command menus. Poor integration and potential intra-operability with LMS tools such score, xAPI and LTI
> 
> Used it very briefly then had to cancel my subscription as there was no appropriate tier which would match my level of activity. Any potential useful interoperability features were confined to the higher subscription level although my concern was that even with that level I wasn't confident of there utility. Similarly, there was a tiered customer support level associated with subscription levels. The features linked to the tiered price range extended to how one engaged with users specifically the potential 'tutor' group.

-----

### "UK Flour Millers" — 5.0/5

> **Steve** | *19 August 2024* | Government Relations | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Customer Service, dedicated account manager
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of Hot spot or drag and question and answers
> 
> Experience has been smooth, with continuous support and guidance to ensure each exam lands and is executed with minimal errors

-----

### "Distributing Exams and Study Materials is a Snap in Synap\!" — 5.0/5

> **Elise** | *26 June 2023* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The number one thing we love about Synap is the support. There is an extensive library of documents, and on top of that we can quickly message the support team anytime. Our rep \[sensitive content hidden\]&#10; scheduled several meeting with us while we were getting set up to make sure our deployment was easy and seamless. There are so many features we adore about Synap as well, importing entire exams worth of questions at once, being able to have a bucket of questions that automatically rotates to give a unique test to each learner, managing several courses, distributing materials to learners, I could go on all day. The interface is easy and intuitive for both educators and learners.
> 
> **Cons**: There are a few features we would like to see added such as learners being able to download videos directly from Synap, Surveys being available in Collections, and sorting/filtering being a bit easier. The support team was able to find a creative solution to every request, so it is all working just fine\!
> 
> Amazing. The support we have received is really top-notch, we really felt like we were getting the "White Glove" treatment, even as a smaller company\!
