AboutTime is a superior source of time for your computer. As a time client, it will acquire time from the Internet with great accuracy, and as a server it will provide four kinds of time signals to other computers on your local network.

AboutTime uses advanced signal-processing techniques to correct for network delays, making high accuracy possible even over a slow modem connection.

In a local network with a copy of AboutTime installed on each machine, one can achieve + - 50 millisecond typical synchronization accuracies. More Info »

AboutTime can be instructed to perform its tasks automatically, at startup or at chosen time intervals. It is a small program that can be run in the background without requiring many resources.

AboutTime is compatible with all current Windows versions.

AboutTime was added by obyt in Jun 2018 and the latest update was made in Mar 2019. The list of alternatives was updated Jun 2018. It's possible to update the information on AboutTime or report it as discontinued, duplicated or spam.

Here is a typical client session. In this example, AboutTime reports a 3 millisecond difference between the local computer's clock and the network time server.

Here is AboutTime's own four-server "traffic" display. It shows that one of the server protocols is unavailable (red), and another is responding to a request (yellow).
