Lifsoft's Auto power on and Shutdown is useful for offices where work has to be done in an ordered manner. It is time efficient because all the tasks have their schedule predefined, there can't be a delay in any work to be performed. But this ordered manner also makes it lose its flexibility, i.e.; one can't find a shorter method to a job as the method is predefined and has to be followed strictly.

It can cause lethargy among workers due to dependency on the system. This software will save energy by putting the computer system in standby or hibernation mode.
