CNET Editors' review
TimeLeft tries to give users every conceivable time-telling device they could want. With a variety of options, this is an impressive program with a simple interface that users will love.
This free program imbeds itself into your desktop tray and provides a wizard once clicked on. Here, users can select between setting a clock, a stopwatch, a reminder, an auction watch, a timer or a sticky note. Each option opens to an intuitive screen that allows for quick and easy setting. The programs appear on the desktop in various forms and colors, which can be arranged to your liking.
Extra steps like the online auction countdown clock were very impressive, but one particular issue kept us from being blown away. Primarily, the clocks cannot have their shape, size or colors adjusted, which some users may find troublesome. However, thanks to this program's ease and overall amazing breadth, we still give users the recommendation to download TimeLeft if they are searching for an all-purpose clock program.

"Complicated and incomplete.. Uninstalled it."
Version: TimeLeft 3.57.1
Pros
Can do a lot of things.. most of which you won't need..
here, with "you" I refer to a simple man.. like myself.
btw, you can uninstall it pretty easily :)
worth a try I'd say.. :) and yeah.. no threats detected by avast :) it's clean!Cons
it can't do some simple but important thing.. you can't set an alarm for instance.. strange but true..
you have to set a timer calculating how long you would like to sleep.. isn't it weird?Summary
It can do a lots of things.. most of which one won't need.. but can't do most common and basic thing which most of the people need.

"Removed it."
Version: TimeLeft 3.57.1
Pros
Don't remember anymore.
Cons
Not my kind of friendly.
Summary
Just wanted an attractive, versatile timer, that was not a hassle. This was not it.

"simple bug great"
Version: TimeLeft 3.57.1
Pros
Countdown timer has very important "reset" button.
Cons
I have not seen any yet.
Summary
Has simple interfaces and timer displays. Many timer applications concentrated on "pretty" instead of functional. I use the timer with a fixed countdown value. It will stop when it counts to zero and sound an alarm. Then it will let me start it again from the top by clicking reset to start it from the beginning. All of the others forgot the very important reset button. Also some others don't have an alarm when they hit zero. Some others will allow an application to overlay the timer.

"Super useful!"
Version: TimeLeft 3.57.1
Pros
Has numerous features and multiple timers.
Cons
Could be a more attractive design.
-
"Very nice product!"
Version: TimeLeft 3.57.1
Pros
Has a wide range of reminders and timers for every conceivable need.
Cons
Not compatible with Windows 7.
Summary
As soon as a Windows 7 compatible program is available, I would like to get it. It serves my needs very well, but just caused too many problems in Windows 7.
