"Before tickr, we used the clock on the wall. Now we use tickr. Honestly the wall clock was fine but our IT budget had to be spent on something."
"Paid $99 to stop a clock today. Don't regret it. The number stopped exactly when I clicked the button. Worth every penny."
"tickr replaced four separate countdown tools. We didn't have four separate countdown tools before, but we have one now, so technically a 75% reduction."
"Our previous clock was free and worked fine. Then a sales rep called us 14 times. Honestly easier to just buy it."
"The team collaboration features have transformed how we count down. We now have a Slack channel just for the clock. It is our most active channel."
"Imagine paying for a clock. Anyway, we upgraded to Pro last week. The watermark was distracting on-air and procurement said no to a sticker."
Stopping the clock is a premium feature. The Free plan is intended for evaluation; Pro is for customers with active stop-the-clock requirements. Most professional broadcast workflows require the ability to stop, so we recommend Pro for production use.
The daily countdown quota is currently enforced client-side via browser storage. Our engineering team has reviewed this design and concluded that our Free-plan customers can be trusted to honour the terms of the plan they have selected. Users who repeatedly break these quotas will be subjected to a range of consequences that vary in severity.
DST transitions are not included in any plan. Customers in regions that observe Daylight Saving Time can purchase our Temporal Anomaly Handling add-on at $29 per transition. Pricing reflects the engineering complexity of adding or subtracting one (1) hour, twice a year.
Each feature represents significant ongoing infrastructure investment. The colon, in particular, required two engineers and a designer. We had to monetise it to recoup costs.
The countdown reaches zero and stops. This functionality is included in all plans, including Free, provided the clock was not manually stopped first (Pro feature).
tickr is a fully managed, cloud-hosted, enterprise-grade solution with a salesperson you can call. OBS is free software made by volunteers. We are simply not comparable.
