Proxy servers:

  • SOCKS4
  • SOCKS4A
  • SOCKS5
  • HTTP Proxy

Reference Time Servers

Express Timesync can be configured to use Public NTP (Internet), NIST or LAN (local) time servers as a reference time source. You can use the built-in time server directory to choose the national time server operating in your region.

Advanced Features

Express Timesync provides the unique features that help to make it more accurate, reliable and easy-to-use compared to other similliar products:

Local Time Server Mode

Any server or workstation running Express Timesync Professional can be configured to be a reference time server for other computers on your local area network.

Advanced Schedule

Express Timesync integrates with Windows Task Scheduler service to provide the most comprehensive scheduling capabilities. You can choose days of week, specifiy months and start time when computer clock should be synchronized. For example, you can easily configure Express Timesync to synchronize the computer clock before opening of your working day or at the time of maintenance operations in your organization.

Transparent Clock Synchronization

Express Timesync can synchronize the clock even if no user is logged on to system! All you need to do is just to define the clock synchronization schedule and your clock will be synchronized at the specified time automatically.

Windows Task Scheduler Integration

Windows Task Scheduler is an operating system service, which is installed by default on Windows 98/ME/NT/2000/XP/2003 operating systems. Express Timesync integrates uses this service to schedule clock synchronization.

The main advantage of such integration is that there is no need to install Express Timesync as a service. Windows Task Scheduler automatically starts Express Timesync at a proper time to synchronize your clock without disturbing your work.

Prioritized Reference Time Server List

Unlike many other applications, Express Timesync stores a prioritized reference time server list. You can define the order in which time servers are queried and the conditions for filtering timestamps received from time servers.

Multi-host Time Servers

For convenience, you can specify several hosts for a time server to control reduce server load. Express Timesync will query a random host from the list when the time synchronization takes place.

Time Server Test Feature

The time server test feature allows organizing your reference time server list to include only reliable time servers.

Clock Synchronization Statistics And History

Express Timesync stores the clock synchronization statistics so you can always check how accurate your clock is. You can also view the clock synchronization history graph to see how clock offset is changing between synchronization attempts.

Event Logging

Express Timesync adds a record for each event to the application log. This helps to resolve the problems on early stages.

E-Mail Notifications

You can configure Express Timesync to send e-mail notifications about clock synchronization events such as successful or failed clock synchronization to the specified recipients list.

Automation and User Assistance

Express Timesync uses wizards to assist you in configuring the application. For example, when you add a new time server to the reference time server list, the wizard automatically configures the parameters of time server according to your current network settings. This helps to avoid many errors and makes your work more effective.
