LexisNexis: We Broke It, You Buy It

Sam Glover — Fri, 12 Feb 2010 12:00:35 +0000

If you just bought Time Matters 10, are you bothered that LexisNexis just charged you hundreds of dollars for a “bug fix release”? You do not see Toyota charging car owners to fix their broken pedals, so why should you pay to fix LexisNexis’s broken product? Good question. No worries, from now on, LexisNexis will [...]

Time Matters: upgrade or drop dead

Sam Glover — Wed, 28 May 2008 15:38:40 +0000

I just re-installed my licensed copy of Time Matters so I could close out my old files. I figured I might as well run the most up-to-date version, but when I visited the Time Matters website to look for the patches and updates, lo and behold, they have disappeared! Even completely free software offers patches [...]

Open standards in legal software

Sam Glover — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 15:50:43 +0000

The world is going the way of open standards. Even Microsoft, long a proponent of closed, proprietary standards, just got finished pushing and shoving its flawed OOXML document standard (hint: what you use if you use Office 2007) through ISO certification. What about the legal industry? Nope, nary an open standard to be seen in [...]

Update from Time Matters consultant: okay, okay, Time Matters 6 through 8 were pretty bad, but it’s better now, I promise!

Sam Glover — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 17:37:51 +0000

In a comment on the ever-popular “Speeding up Time Matters” post, Tom Rowe, who is apparently a Time Matters consultant, wrote the following: As a long time CIC and Time Matters users, I have to say that many of the posts here are fair. I am sure that many of the posters who are/were using [...]

Revisiting Time Matters

Sam Glover — Tue, 04 Mar 2008 02:29:31 +0000

A little over a year ago, I posted about my frustration, both with the speed and stability of Time Matters with Billing Matters Plus v7 and with the CIC Solutions Forum, which purports to be a place where users can get support from certified consultants, but where my post about how to speed up TM7 [...]

My timekeeping and accounting solution

Sam Glover — Fri, 21 Sep 2007 03:55:07 +0000

My wife commented yesterday that it has been a long time since she heard me complaining about my timekeeping and accounting software. It’s true. I hadn’t realized how much less frustration I have since I ditched Time Matters and Billing Matters Plus for good. Instead, I am using a combination of spreadsheets and simple but [...]

Time Matters 7.0 works beautifully in Linux

Sam Glover — Wed, 15 Aug 2007 09:28:56 +0000

Although I have Time Matters primarily for former clients whose files I am saving for the next six or seven years, just in case, I wanted to see whether I would be able to run it directly in Linux, or whether I would need to boot into Windows. I was surprised to find that it [...]

Tracking time

Sam Glover — Sat, 09 Jun 2007 00:59:53 +0000

If you have read much of this blog, you know I have a major obsession with time tracking options. I have tried a variety of options, including Time Matters, Time59 (online), GnoTime, BK Task Timer, TTime, and many more. All are lacking something. Most are too complicated. Tracking time is an inherently simple thing. All [...]

Running Time Matters on a Mac or in Linux

Sam Glover — Fri, 02 Feb 2007 00:02:49 +0000

Since my current obsession is the feasibility of switching over to Ubuntu Linux, I was pleased to see that the popular CrossOver software for Macs is also available for Linux. It works for Microsoft Office, and iIt also purports to work for Time Matters–version 5.0, anyway. I have high hopes it would also allow me [...]

Speeding up Time Matters

Sam Glover — Sat, 27 Jan 2007 02:32:55 +0000

I tried to post a question to the CIC Solutions Forum, but apparently my request for tips to speed up Time Matters was objectionable: Your post was deleted by Matt Stone. Subject: Speeding up Time Matters? Reason: Thank you for contributing to the CIC Solutions Forums. Your message was rejected by the list moderator because [...]
