System Time

System Time is a lightweight Windows application that provides users with important information about CPU usage time and system uptime, in addition to facilitating the synchronization of your system clock with various NTP pools.

It is a simple and portable utility that does its job quite well, but its user interface cannot be customized in any way.

While many people do not even make the distinction between user and kernel time, this info is very valuable in certain situations.

This application can display CPU idle time, kernel time and user time right on your desktop, ensuring you will always have access to this important data. It provides you with the system uptime and lets you know when the PC was last booted.

You can take advantage of this program if you wish to ensure the time provided by your OS is accurate. It can obtain data from several network time protocol pools, which guarantee a high degree of accuracy.

System Time allows you to synchronize your clock with any of the available NTP pools, but, naturally, this requires an active and stable Internet connection.

This is a great utility for people who wish to have this information available at all times, but the program is not exactly unobtrusive. It cannot be sent to the system tray, and it is not possible to reduce the number of timers that are displayed.

No alternative interface themes are available, and you cannot alter the program’s opacity. Also, given that many users are likely to want to keep the application on their desktops at all times, it would have been great if you had the option of keeping it on top of all other windows.

To sum up, System Time is a lightweight, user-friendly tool that provides you with valuable time-related system statistics and enables you to synchronize your PCs clock with NTP pools. It is very easy to deploy thanks to its portable design, but it would benefit from a customizable UI.
