Many people communicate globally and often need a world clock utility to determine the right time for telephone calls or instant messaging. But which world clock is right for you?
WR Consulting, a company that develops enterprise productivity tools, has released ZoneTick v3.1 — a convenient world clock for Windows that can show multiple time zones either in Windows taskbar or on desktop.
The program is very useful when communicating with people in other parts of the globe: such as your friends in other countries, your colleagues in remote offices or in the field, or the home-crowd while you are traveling. This is because ZoneTick displays the times for any amount of different time zones and also allows you to synchronize your clocks with accurate online time-servers.
ZoneTick v3.1 comes pre-translated in 6 languages: English, French, German, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. You can also translate or improve translation of ZoneTick into your language using free WR Localization Service.
Nik Okuntseff, CEO of WR Consulting, said, “We are very pleased with quality and multi-language support in this release. This makes ZoneTick stand out of the competition. We are giving away control over translations to users of the product. Anyone can improve an existing translation or provide a new one using our localization service, which will soon become available to others vendors.”
But ZoneTick is not just an enterprise executive productivity tool. People from many walks of life may find it handy. For example, forex traders, ham radio users, pilots, international students on exchanges, the navy and military, or just about everyone with need to keep in touch with someone in another time zone.
ZoneTick uses digital and analog graphical skins that gives you the ability to customize your ZoneTick to fit any desktop style. Quality and maximum size of skins have been significantly increased in the new version.
ZoneTick comes with a system of alarms. You can create any amount of alarms, which will play a sound, display a message, launch an application, or open a web-page at the time of your choosing.
ZoneTick’s success is due primarily to its manageability and diversity as an award-winning Windows utility. On top of a highly usable shareware, ZoneTick is also available as a very affordable personal or enterprise productivity tool.
Whether you travel from time zone to time zone, have international friends, or are simply on the lookout for high-quality shareware, ZoneTick is the world clock for you!

If you use instant messaging with your friends or colleagues in other time zones or telecommute to work for a company on another continent you might need a world clock to know current local time in other locations. But which world clock software program is right for you?
WR Consulting, a company that develops enterprise productivity tools and services, has released ZoneTick World Time Zone Clock v3.2 — a convenient world clock for Windows that can show multiple time zones either in Windows taskbar or on desktop.
ZoneTick v3.2 has the following new features, as compared to its predecessor, ZoneTick 3.1.
New time zone format is introduced to support all localities on Earth. The new database format anticipates future time zone changes in the world. Countries like Brazil, Uruguay, Israel and many others are fully supported. Dependency on Windows time zones is eliminated.
ZoneTick World Clock is additionally localized into Dutch, Japanese, and Italian. Additional localizations and improvements to existing localization files are welcome via WR Localization Service at http://wrconsulting.com/cms/localization/. The localization service is offered by the company free of charge to world clock user community.
Time table, which shows an entire day layout for all configured time zones, is introduced.
Time converter is redesigned. Conversion of times for countries like India is much easier now.
The program is very useful when communicating with people in other parts of the globe: such as your friends in other countries, your colleagues in remote offices or in the field, or the home-crowd while you are traveling. This is because ZoneTick displays the times for any amount of different time zones and also allows you to synchronize your clocks with accurate online time-servers.
Nik Okuntseff, CEO of WR Consulting, said, “We are very pleased with this release. Users like improvements to ZoneTick time converter. Many of them deal with India and the new version delivers what’s needed very nicely. Not to mention the improved clock accuracy for countries with complex summer time rules. And a few more languages, of course, which strengthen our position as a world clock software market leader for Windows.”
ZoneTick World Time Zone Clock is good for enterprise and individual use. CEOs, VPs, executives traveling on business, and people from many walks of life may find it handy. For example, forex traders, ham radio users, pilots, international students on exchanges, the navy and military, or just about everyone with need to keep in touch with someone in another time zone.
ZoneTick uses digital and analog graphical skins. That gives you the ability to customize your ZoneTick to fit any desktop style. ZoneTick comes with a system of alarms.
