Why should you switch from HackerEarth to Equip?

Whether you need assessments for hiring at a startup or an enterprise, Equip has all the features and pricing plans to help you screen the most eligible candidates for every role.

Why should we switch from HackerEarth to Equip? Step 1 illustration

Flexible Custom Tests

Equip provides extensive flexibility for creating Custom Tests, allowing you to include all available test types such as Quizzes, Programming Challenges, CSS Challenges, SQL Challenges, and Video Interviews. In contrast, HackerEarth's Custom Tests are limited to technical roles and offer fewer question types.

Prevent cheating with advanced proctoring

Equip offers advanced AI-powered proctoring with features like tab switch detection, random photo capture, multiple monitor detection, and full-screen enforcement. In contrast, HackerEarth’s proctoring is basic, lacking screen sharing, audio recording, and face detection, which leaves room for cheating and impersonation, without detailed proctoring reports to verify test integrity.

Unique Question Types

Equip’s Randomized Template and Question Banks ensure different candidates see unique variants of a question, reducing the chance of cheating or finding answers online. In contrast, HackerEarth offers a filter to hide publicly available questions, preventing the use of easily searchable questions but without creating unique variants for each candidate.

Tailored Test Timing

Equip’s tests provide flexibility to display questions one-by-one with individual timers or all at once with an overall timer, and negative points are auto-calculated when enabled. HackerEarth also offers timers and negative points but lacks segregation between timed and untimed questions, which can confuse candidates as timers run simultaneously.
