随時(ずいじ)refers to occasions as needed or desired, rather than one fixed time. - Basic usage: It suits notices welcoming questions at any time or updating information as circumstances require.
2. Common pitfalls and similar expressions

質問は随時受け付けますoccurs in a context allowing questions during the explanation. This notice alone does not establish round-the-clock service hours.

定期的(ていきてき)focuses on regular intervals.状況に応じて随時更新されるmeans updating when circumstances require, not a promise of continuous updates at every instant.
