Compact Timer is a free application which provide multiple countdown, countup, alarm, and stop watch features.

Sometimes, you may need an application which can create a few countdown timers, which can remind you on somethings. There are a lot of applications which provide countdown feature. But, i am a .NET supporter so i come over Compact Timer.
There are different type of timers such as Countdown, Countdown to Date/Time, Countup, Countup to Date/Time, and Stop Watch. You can create unlimited timers and run them simultaneously.
Compact Timer require .NET framework 2.0 and above to run. All timers created will be automatically saved into your system.

There are a lot of settings for the timer. For example, you can create actions when your timer finish countdown, open file or URL, and popup notifications.
This application consume around 26MB of memory. So, if your PC doesn’t has sufficient, you better try other similar applications, else it will cause your PC slow.
