In recent years, universities and other academic institutions have been performing collaborative learning to improve the students' skills, competencies, and learning outcomes. The problem-based learning approach is a learning method where students can work in groups to develop these skills. However, when working in groups, the students are not always being assessed accordingly to their contributions to the work development. Therefore, self and peer assessment are becoming a common practice in academic institutions. With the technology evolution and the emerging of assessment software tools, the evaluators' work is becoming easier. This paper presents seven different tools, as well as their features and functionalities. To evaluate and compare these tools, some parameters are presented and described, based on usability and user experience definitions. It concludes that there is a demand to develop a freeware tool, with parameters not presented in the existing evaluation tools to assist the lecturer in the assessment.
