Time cockpit ensures highest levels of data security and availability by using certified Microsoft Azure data centers inside the EU
Time cockpit uses the Microsoft Azure cloud to provide its services. It runs in certified data centers inside the European Union (Amsterdam and Dublin).
For all services that time cockpit relies on, Microsoft offers the EU Standard Contractual Clauses (also known as EU Model Clauses). The EU Model Clauses are used in agreements between Microsoft and us to ensure that any personal data leaving the European Economic Area (EEA) is transferred in compliance with the GDPR.
Our cloud strategy is based on the Platform-as-a-Service (PaaS) model. This means that we do not rent virtual machines in the cloud and install our software on them. Instead, we use managed services provided by our cloud provider Microsoft. This allows us to focus on our core competencies, deliver a better product to our customers, and keep the costs for time cockpit low.
Time cockpit has been built from day one as a multi-tenant application. This means that multiple customers share underlying infrastructure. This is a huge advantage as it allows us to offer time cockpit at a very attractive price. However, shared infrastructure does not mean lack of flexibility. On the contrary, being highly customizable is a differentiating factor for time cockpit.
We have been using Azure since its very existence. Time cockpit was one of the first SaaS solutions on Azure. Our CEO Rainer Stropek was one of the first experts worldwide awarded with the title Microsoft Most Valuable Professionals (MVP) for the Azure platform. Providing large scale SaaS solutions on Azure has been our core competency for more than a decade. This is what we do, this is what we are good at.
With time cockpit, we can skip the tedious development of foundational code, such as database connection, input validation and sanitization, user interface layout and styling, form field validations, and object-relational mapping (ORM) for database interactions. This means we can focus on customizing the platform to meet your specific needs, rather than spending time and resources building the foundational components from scratch.

Time cockpit has been successfully customized for numerous different time tracking needs. As a flexible and adaptable platform, time cockpit has also proven to be useful beyond time tracking applications.
The time cockpit's platform reduces the amount of coding required for customizations. This is because developers can define their data structures, validation rules, business rules and even the user interface declaratively.

Once we have received your approval after your tests, we will deploy your new features in your production environment.
The time it takes to customize time cockpit depends on the complexity of your specific requirements. Time cockpit has already done a lot of the heavy lifting in terms of development, so customizing it can typically be done faster compared to building a feature from scratch. Our team will work closely with you to understand your needs and provide you with a timeline for the customization process.
cost of a customization depends on the scope of work. You can check our current hourly rate on our pricing page.
