Time Matters is practice management software, produced by LexisNexis which was recently purchased by Reed Elsevier. It differs from contact management software, such as ACT! or GoldMine, because in addition to contacts, it manages calendaring, email, documents, research, billing, accounting, and matters or projects. It integrates with a variety of other software products from both LexisNexis and other vendors. Some of these vendors are Quicken, Microsoft, Palm, Firefox, Internet Explorer, Word Perfect and Adobe Acrobat. Developed originally for law firms, Time Matters competes with Amicus, Tabs, and other legal practice management products. It also may be used in conjunction with Document modelling and Document assembly software products like HotDocs and Deal Builder.
Time Matters is available in three editions, Professional, Enterprise and World. The Enterprise edition uses Microsoft SQL Server as its database engine. The World edition serves up Time Matters in your browser for remote management. An international network of Certified Independent Consultants ("CICs") support, train and customize this product for end users.
Time Matters Professional is based on the TPS file system which was developed by Softvelocity. Time Matters Enterprise is based on SQL for it's database but it is currently limited to only Microsoft SQL Server and SQL Express which is also from Microsoft. None of the open source SQL programs such as Postgresql, MySQL and others are currently supported.
