A fun and useful speaking clock
If you're the type of person who looses track of time when you're online, maybe you need a different type of clock - a speaking clock!
Say the Time is a cheerful and useful app that will help you keep tabs on the time and your to-do list. The program pretty much configures itself and is ready to use as soon as you install it. Of course, it has a great selection of configuration options so that the time will be displayed and spoken exactly how you like - 12 hour, 24 hour or even military time are all OK!
Say the Time doesn't just tell the time, however. It's also a sticky-note app and reminder program. Both of these features are just as configurable as the clock function, and as if all this wasn't enough, Say the Time also offers a stop watch and countdown timer. It's a very complete app and an excellent addition to any desktop.
Say the Time is a bright and useful app for people who want to hear the time, not just see it!

Habe seit 20.04.24 noch keine Bestellmail mit Freischalt Code erhalten. Support meldet sich nicht. Werde PayPal informieren und Geld zurückverlangen.

Zero customer support, has Windows 10 issues, surprised CNET hasn't removed it from software lists.

Worst tech support in the software world.
Sooner or later you will need tech support for this product. Unfortunately, your chances of getting such help are next to nil, since Provenio treats its customers abusively. They have the worst tech support I have experienced in 30 years as a PC user.
Pros:
Product is well designed
Cons:
A search tool More

NOT a company you'll want to deal with.
Nothing wrong with the product, although $30 is a steep price to pay for a task-bar clock. However, as another reviewer has noted here, you''ll have to pay that amount again and again if you want to Say the Time running, since Provenio does not support previous versions nor make them available for download onto new PCs.In the event that you encounter technical difficulties, including the notorious 'missing stth64.dll driver', you can forget about getting help from the company, since they have made themselves quite impossible to reach by phone (the number they list is a phony) and almost as difficult to contact via email. Even if they should actually respond to your email plea for help after a month or two, if the fix they suggest doesn't work, you'll wait another month or two, or perhaps even indefinitely, before you hear from them again.
Pros:
Visual interface is simple and easy
Cons:
Some bugs. Pricey. Incredibly bad tech support. More

Useful product, but VERY pricey, zero support and shady business practices.
The upgrade policy is a ripoff for the reasons the developer has noted elsewhere on this page. Also, you should think twice about doing business with any company that absolutely refuses to talk to its customers. The phone number Provenio provides for itself is bogus, and they will not answer your e-mail queries. All of this is unfortunate because the product itself is quite useful. More

Not worth upgrade..
I am a developer and I believe in paying for software that I use. But charging $30 for an upgrade to version 11 is ridiculous when version 9 does every thing I need.I had the same problem of the new computer and not wanting to pay for version 11 and solved it this way:
1. Copy the Say the Time folder from Program Files on the old computer to the new one
2. Copy the registry information (search for saytime) and merged it to the registry on the new computer.
3. Copied my serial number from the old computer (Help->About Say the Time)
4. Run SayTime.exe on new computer
5. Unlock and Activate & enter the username and serial number.
Done!
Pros:
Nice functionality.
- Love the flexibility of formatting the clock
- I have the announcement feature running after normal work hours to keep me from getting too absorbed and working through the evening.
- I also like the reminders, much easier than setting up something on my calendar in Outlook.
- the stopwatch and countdown clocks are often useful as well.
Cons:
Too expensive - especially for upgrades. More
