Meet the Clock Doctor
Every school gets a real Clock Expert. Not a bot or call center.
“Hi, I’m Jeff. I’m here on behalf of American Time’s Clock Experts. Real people like Mike, Tina, Brad, and Janelle who actually pick up the phone. No phone trees, no chatbots. 96% of calls are answered within 2 rings, and 3 out of 4 issues are solved on the very first call. My job is simple; keep your clocks synced and your team worry-free.
While I’m here, don’t just take my word for it. Ask the folks at Anoka-Hennepin, who modernized clocks across 58 buildings, or Evergreen Charter School, where synced clocks single-handedly saved lunch period.”

“American Time’s system was by far the easiest to install and operate. One system controller takes care of it all, whereas other vendors required repeaters and more equipment to synchronize the whole campus. American Time’s demonstration showed how easy their system is to install and operate. Between that, the price, and the service, there really was no competition.”

“When St. Paul College was part of the St. Paul School District, they had one person fixing and maintaining the clocks in all 60 buildings. Daylight saving time and power outages were a huge chore. It might take months to get everything straightened out in all the buildings. The wireless GPS antenna system worked well for us. Getting signal coverage in our existing building and new areas without having additional repeaters is important to us.”
