How To Cut Business Costs With Employee Time Tracking Software

"Time" is the key word as it relates to money and software that saves and tracks time, increases efficiency and cuts project costs. Whether a company is small or an enterprise wide corporation, software that assists better time tracking, project time tracking and employee time tracking will ultimately increase your profits.

By reducing the time spent on time sheet data entry and project reporting, your organization will see cost reductions and productivity increases, which equals money saved. Understanding where each individual employee's time is spent and realigning that time as needed to best suit the needs of the current project is a major step toward greater profitability. Another important key to implementing great time management is the ability to move resources quickly between projects and tasks without effecting existing time entries.

The ability to access real time data on how any one or multiple employees' time is spent will allow you to make appropriate changes to reduce internal costs, realign project resources and time projections of project deliverables. Time is money! Time management and profitability are in direct correlation with how well time is managed and how well one can generate reports based on the numbers. This then reflects in the bottom line.

Having easy access to time management history allows your company to guesstimate (with accuracy) the man hours of a particular project, what that project will cost in labor and resources, the cost effectiveness of pricing, as well as effective quoting based on similar past projects.

Time tracking and project costing software applications should include time sheet software, time attendance software and time billing software in one easy to use graphic interface. Software designed for business intelligence reporting and including over 135 powerful reports and graphs in real time for time sheet management, performance management, project tracking, and project management will undoubtedly reduce waste of employee time and company resources.

DOVICO Software, which is compliant with DCAA, Sarbanes Oxley Act (SOX) and other quality control programs such as CMMI, COBIT and Six Sigma, will provide a software solution that delivers measurable results straight to the bottom line. This project tracking, project time costing and project time management software will provide real time informative data to shape your teams' production to full capacity. Training should always be easily implemented and user friendly in order to ensure employee adoption of the new software system.

A programs' adoptability rests in how easy it is to implement into your existing system with the least amount of impact on your business. The right software provides you with fast access to data, and should integrate with your existing software (example: Microsoft Project, QuickBooks & Active Directory). The right software for tracking projects and employees easily increases a company's productivity and the bottom line. The right software will give your company better control of time and that is a statement of power.

User Guide for Data Recovery - Through Data Recovery Software


According to Murphy's Law of Data Loss, "The probabilities of a hard-disk crash increase with the number of days since the drive was last backed up." No hard disk drive is ever completely safe from crashing, and losing all the important data on it.

A disk drive can be damaged due to a number of causes such as virus attack, voltage glitches, software malfunction, hard disk format, accidental file/directory deletion, human error or even sabotage. Such events cause corruption or damage to the disk drive, and make the data completely inaccessible to the user.

Data Recovery comes into play when your storage stops responding to your request. This is the most critical time for your data and the impending problem with the hard drive. A wrong step can make your hard drive & data inaccessible for ever. First and foremost thing is Don't Panic!

Now check whether you have a physical failure or logical one. Normally in 80% of cases there is a logical failure. To know the type of failure you have hear whether any ticking sound is coming from the hard drive or not? If not that means that it is a logical failure and you can recover your data through data recovery software.

You can choose the data recovery software by searching on Google with keywords like data recovery software, hard drive recovery etc. While scanning different software product consider these factors:

See to this whether the software supports your systems hardware like RAM (Random Access Memory), Operating Systems (particular Window flavors, Unix, Linux, Solaris etc).You must check your RAM before installing the data recovery software, as these software uses recursive search operation which requires lots of virtual memory. For a fast recovery you have large size of virtual memory. I would recommend 256 MB or 1 GB would be best.

After selecting the software it's the turn of software Installation. NEVER means NEVER install the software on the same physical drive from where you have lost your data. As it may get over written and you will lose it for ever.

Always use a working computer with a drive having enough free space to store your recovered data.

Verify that the drive in the PC is connected on the Primary Channel as Master.
You can connect the drive as:
* Slave on the primary channel OR AS
* Master or Slave on the secondary channel

Note: You can take help of support executive in your office or your maintenance engineer if you are not comfortable in connecting the drives.

Attaching the Drive in to slave has three simple steps:
* Set the jumpers on the hard drive or CD ROM
* Plug and screw the drive in
* Boot the computer up and make sure the drive is detected

Let's take the example of Stellar Phoenix Data Recovery Software
Run setup.exe from Stellar Phoenix software CDROM or diskette. If you have downloaded Stellar Phoenix from www.stellarinfo.com or a download engine, run the application setup.exe file from windows explorer to begin the installation process.

Note: Make sure you are logged in as administrator before initializing setup, as the software installation requires admin rights in Windows NT/2000/XP.

Setup starts to install the software, creates a desktop shortcut and creates an entry in program groups menu. The default path where software is installed is C:Program FilesStellar Phoenix FAT & NTFS 2.0Software creates an entry in Add Remove program group for uninstalling the software.

Here we came to the end of installation. Now you can perform the desired activity like recovering the complete partition, deleted files or repair the corrupted files.
In my next article I will guide you in recovering the Deleted files & folders by using
