PresenTense Network Time Management Software
Complete Management Solution for Network Time Synchronization
Manage, synchronize, and simplify an entire Windows network

Improve interoperability, lower network operating costs, and
reduce administrative work loads with PresenTense network time

Microsoft states that the W32Time Service is not designed to
provide accurate time sync capability. “W32Time meets the
requirements specied by the Kerberos authentication protocol
to provide clock values that are loosely synchronized across a
network. This service is not designed for use by applications that
require greater precision.”
—from Microsoft article “Windows Time Service”
