Online exams hinge on two questions: who keeps the time, and when does the exam start? Orion never leaves timing to the client — the countdown runs on the server. In a live exam, participants gather in a waiting room and the exam opens for everyone at the same instant.
Key capabilities
Server-side timing
Remaining time is verified by the server, so the countdown holds even if a tab is closed.
Waiting room
Participants appear in the room before the exam; the teacher sees who is ready in real time.
Simultaneous start
A single command opens the exam for every participant in the same second.
Automatic saving
Every answer is stored immediately; after a dropped connection students resume where they left off.
Instant results
Net score, points and outcome analysis are ready the moment the exam ends.
Separate permission family
Live-exam rights are granted independently of other exam permissions.
