Plom's benefits

  • Respects privacy of student data -- all data stays on your server, and markers do not see student name or ID when working.
  • Easy multi-versioned tests -- designed to handle crowded classrooms and multi-section courses over multiple days.
  • Simplify logistics and minimizes paper-handling.
  • Free -- Plom is Libre and Gratis. No software to buy, and no subscriptions to pay.
