This version of Xpert-Timer is for single users (Basic/Pro) and for multi users (Pro) in a network. You can run both versions on a Microsoft Access,  MS-SQL (Express also) or MySQL database. Most of our clients use this version of Xpert-Timer. The collection of the data takes place with a direct connection to the central database of your company. Is a permanent connection to the central database not possible, you can also collect your data on your local system and synchronize it with the central database by using the synchronization module XTSyncServer (additional module that needs to be purchased). In order to have access to your data from several locations you can either use a terminalserver or a hosted or approved MySQL or MS-SQL database.

Xpert-Timer Pro should be used with a MS-SQL or MySQL database if used in a multi-user environment. Alternatively, the program is delivered with a MS-Access database. You don't need to have MS Access installed on your system.

Multiple project teams can all at once track their times in Xpert-Timer. If you are using Xpert-Timer in a team, you should install the software on a network drive in order to install future updates easily. It's not necessary to install the software on every single client.
