What it is
Tomax is an assessment platform for institutions that combines exam creation, secure delivery, integrity checks, grading, and feedback. It supports formative quizzes, high-stakes exams, and regulated professional licensure tests, with question types including multiple choice, essays, file uploads, and coding challenges. For online exams, TomaEtest includes Assessment Studio for authoring, Monitor for exam sessions, and Vix as the candidate client. Tomax says the system can support 50,000 concurrent candidates and preserve answers if a connection is lost. Integrity options include lockdown browsing, identity verification, live monitoring, question scrambling, audit trails, and screen and camera recording. Paper exams can be scrambled, bulk scanned, matched to candidates, and automatically marked for objective items. Smart Defense lets students explain their reasoning for instructor review alongside exam submissions. Tomax lists integrations with Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard, and D2L/Brightspace, as well as REST API, webhooks, SFTP/CSV, SAML, and OAuth 2.0. Pricing is available on request, and institutions can request a demo.
