What is Continuum?
Continuum™ is a family of application utilities designed to help
keep Windows computer clocks synchronized using Network Time Protocol
(NTP). Such
synchronization can be useful in a variety of situations, from database
applications to development to just wanting to keep accurate time on
your
Windows PC and its network environment.
Your computer uses an internal clock on startup to set time in Windows
for use with all applications. In theory this clock should keep very
accurate
time and set Windows time accordingly on boot-up. Unfortunately, theories
are theories, and real world results show that it is rarely accurate
enough.
Machines that are on for longer durations get worse by the day! Windows
time can (and will) vary from 2 minutes to an hour or more per day (don't
believe us? read this!) and will never look twice at the "real
time" on the CMOS clock.
Choose the best Continuum product depending on your Windows Time Sync
needs:
Continuum™
A standalone utility that syncs your computer’s clock to an internet
time server, or a local computer running Continuum/server or Continuum
Service. Affordable time sync for anyone on a tight budget. Great for
installations of only a few PCs that don't need to be synched together.
Continuum/server™
Time server and synchronization application for all Continuum products
on the local network. Most installations require only one or two time
servers, depending on network size and topography. Available singly
for use on a single Windows PC to sync to the internet, or bundled with
additional Continuum installations for your entire Network.
Continuum Service™
Running invisibly as an efficient Windows Service, Continuum Service
retrieves time from the internet via NTP, or from a local computer running
Continuum/server or Continuum Service. Continuum Service also provides
time synchronization to Continuum products on the local network. Available
for single users or in Network Service Bundles to save you money.
If your machine is not attached to a public network and does not have
access to a remote time server via NTP, you may use Continuum Service
to sync Windows to your computer's internal CMOS quartz clock. Read
