    "The Only One"

    July 29, 2011  |   By roy cactus

    Version: Sharp World Clock 5.0

    Pros

    I can not imagine a feature you would want in a clock app that is not included in Sharp World Clock.

    Cons

    It makes other clock programs look dumb.

    Summary

    I have reviewed this app before and version 5 has outdone itself. I like to trade on world markets like forex and I use this program to remind me when markets are opening or close. That is super easy with alarms and office hours. I can only think of about 100 other reasons to use it. If you need an app for even one other time zone I wouldn't bother with the others, I did and this is the one I was looking for. It is fun to configure and is really sharp.

    Version: Sharp World Clock 4.85

    Pros

    I work with a lot of people around the world. I was always trying to figure out is it night or day, what's their offset from GMT, etc. This utility has eliminated all of that for me! I love it!

    Cons

    I honestly can't think of one!

    Summary

    I highly recommend this utility to anyone who has to deal with people in different timezones. I use this every, single day. BUY this program. It's simple and effective. LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

    "Fantastic Utility!"

    February 26, 2011  |   By Bosnianbill

    Version: Sharp World Clock 4.85

    Pros

    I travel a LOT and have been using the Sharp World Clock for several years. It helps me avoid those calls when you have to say "Oh sorry, I forgot the 9 hour time difference..." Keep up the fine work - I don't know what I'd do without it.

    Cons

    None that I can think of.

    Summary

    If you travel internationally - BUY THIS PROGRAM. I don't feel that way about too many pieces of my software but this one is well worth the money. If you avoid a single embarrassing call that wakes someone in the middle of their night, it is money well spent. Stop looking for something free because you'll get exactly what you pay for. This is the BEST!

    "The best you'll find!"

    January 24, 2011  |   By MaxLucca

    Version: Sharp World Clock 4.84

    Pros

    Multi-timezone clocks all displayed with a hot key. Lots of other useful features such as a time zone converter and customisable clock faces.

    Cons

    I've never had a problem with this software.

    Summary

    I spent ages looking for a really good world clock. I've been using this one daily since September 2008. I love it!

    "Full featured, efficient, and bug free."

    December 29, 2010  |   By gordon.crago

    Version: Sharp World Clock 4.84

    Pros

    The most configurable and bug-free of the 10 clock programs I looked at.

    Cons

    A small tweak I'd like to see would be additional styling options for digital clocks. Currently digital clocks can use any Windows font but the same font and size has to be used for the entire date/time string. I'd like the time larger than the date.

    Summary

    Beyond the many configuration options and overall quality of the software the most impressive thing for me is the responsiveness of the developer. He answered my questions quickly and completely and was open-minded about the suggestions I made. Much of the other clock software I looked at hadn't been updated in years and looked to be of lower quality.

    "Hands down, best clock app available."

    December 19, 2010  |   By 341dr97

    Version: Sharp World Clock 4.84

    Pros

    I've used it for 4 years. Highly flexible and customizable, yet menus are easy to understand and use. So much so people want every bell & whistle imaginable, which wouldn't necessarily make this better. Technical support is the BEST!

    Cons

    In a perfect world the clock chime option could automatically shutoff at night, I live in a studio apt. But I can also use the volume knob on my computer?

    Summary

    1. I use it all the time--4 years now.
    2. It's very customizable, handsome AND functional.
    3. It's perfect for the FOREX markets.
    4. Has great features that connect me with people globally: daylight hours, SWATCH beat, flags. It's the best.

    "Very good looking, Great design and setting flexability"

    December 7, 2010  |   By itay_c

    Version: Sharp World Clock 4.84

    Pros

    Very flexible. Each clock can be designed and configured differently
    Build-in skins are very nice and easy to be modified by the user
    Multi clock layouts allows you to design multi zones across multi displays

    Cons

    Lack of support for high def resolutions (clock fill not fill the entire screen)

    Summary

    The Sharp World Clock is the perfect solution for our video conference rooms.
    The software is installed on a single computer with 5 monitors linked together displaying 10 zones in a single row (2 clocks per screen)
