Can't believe this. So I purchased one of their exams and then I got a link to download an .exe file that I can only run from a Windows machine!!!
No online access, accessing it through mobile app is science fiction.
So not only that they're not mobile-ready, you can't even do it online. That's how things were done prior to Internet in early 1990s!

binarysoul Member Posts: 993Are you defending Boson? Funny how you're in IT which is supposed to be about change, but yet defend a company that still lives in 1990s!!!

DZA_ Member Posts: 467 ■■■■■■■□□□I've just recently used Boson exam simulator for the last 2 weeks on my laptop and passed my exam yesterday. I personally didn't have an issue with the software not being online and had supplementary apps to cover my knowledge base on my phone. No complaints here. Disclaimer: I'm not a Boson employee.

Welly_59 Member Posts: 431Their exams simply will not work on mobile or via web browser that is why.
Its a standard engine with extras for sims. Good luck getting those sims working in flash or html5
Also have you sat a cisco test lately? Those are 1990s software -
Priston Member Posts: 999 ■■■■□□□□□□Boson gives you an authentic experience like your taking a Cisco exam at the testing center. Some people want that in a practice test.
When I go to the testing center, the exam isn't going to be on my phone or a webpage. It's going to be on a 2007 desktop, possibly a ball mouse (can't remember if they upgraded), and of course Cisco's really old testing software.A.A.S. in Networking Technologies
