Resource Management Software Comparison Criteria

To be featured on this resource management software list, I evaluated tools based on the following criteria:

1. User Interface (UI): How well-designed is it? Does it offer clear displays and intuitive navigation?

2. Usability: Is it user friendly and easy to learn and master? Are there tutorials to help improve its ease of use? Does the company offer good tech and user support?

3. Features & Functionality: How many of the key resource management software features and functions does it provide, and how powerful are they? Specifically, I looked for:

• Automation: Automatic resource scheduling features are a major reason to use resource scheduling software. At the very least, this means that your tasks will automatically adjust when moved around, according to the dependencies you’ve set. It can also include custom workflows with automation to help streamline repetitive processes.
• Real-time scheduling: The best resourcing tools give you real-time visibility into workloads and let you monitor progress, see resource utilization, and make adjustments in real-time.
• Alerts: A good resource scheduler lets you customize the type of notifications and alerts that each user receives (email, desktop, etc), ensuring that alerts about resource utilization and workload keep the right people updated.
• At a glance resource schedule: Does the tool provide a bird’s eye view of available resources, billable hours, and resource capacity?

4. Integrations: Is it easy to connect with other tools? Any pre-built integrations?

5. Value for $: How appropriate is the price for its features, capabilities, and use case? Is pricing clear, transparent, and flexible?

6. Customizable: Can you customize the software to fit you and your team members needs? Are there drag and drop functions that allow you to quickly make changes? Can you toggle between different views such as kanban and calendar views?
