How It Works FAQs

1. How long does it take to set up a schedule?
Just a few minutes. Create a Namirasoft Account, open the Console, set a window and frequency, and click Apply.

Daily, Weekly, Monthly, and full Cron frequencies are available, along with optional repeat bursts and a random delay.

Your schedule runs from the start date time you set and follows the frequency and time window you choose. If you add a random delay, the exact run time falls within the range you set.
