Why Network Time System?

Network Time System is a flexible time synchronization solution that can be used on networks of any size and complexity: starting from small office networks (VPN, LAN) to huge enterprise networks (WAN), from single-cluster networks to multiple domain multiple routing networks. In any case Network Time System is the perfect solution for your company since it features some unique functionality:

Client/Server System
Network Time System allows setting up and running dedicated time server on the enterprise network. It is capable of time synchronization with external sources (Internet time servers or local trusted time sources such as GPS, clock cards, etc.). The server allows workstation client software to synchronize time with enterprise network time server thus creating sophisticated time synchronization system for effective time synchronization without the need to enable Internet connection on every machine on the network.

Accuracy
Network Time System offers many advanced features to guarantee accurate and fast time synchronization as it uses high speed network protocols, a speed-based exact time source selection analysis, automatic time sources search within corporate network, its own time protocols and expandable architecture.

Security
Powerful inbound and outbound traffic encryption system and built-in firewall guarantee security of your time server. You always have a chance to limit access to your network time server for any network address or even a network or sub-network IP-range.

Flexibility and functionality
Multi-functional time synchronization system can be customized to suit your needs.

Stability
Network Time System offers high stability both on client and on server side. Network Time Server automatically checks up to three external time sources simultaneously allowing you to be sure your system time is always exact; Network Time Clients can search for network time servers on your corporate network automatically.

Scalability
Setting up multiple Network Time Servers on your network you provide maximum stability since even if one of the Network Time Servers fails the client side will never experience problems.
