  • If I hear of the examination experiences that so many of the other universities had I am so lucky that I found this company. I am never going back to writing a paper-based exam and I will not use another examination provider.

    Program Director | University of the Free State

  • Working with Synap is more of a partnership than a transaction and it makes my job so much easier. I also love how customisable the platform is — I have been able to make significant personalisation via Synap.
