Product Description

Resource Guru is scheduling and resource management software that helps busy teams keep projects on track.

How do you position yourself against your competitors?

Too often productivity tools are focused on tasks and not the people completing them. Resource Guru is the only resource management software that puts people first.

We give project managers and planners a clear understanding of who’s available and when – factoring in time off, individual working hours, competing workloads, external calendar events, and more. Our unique clash management system actively prevents double bookings and overtime, so employee workloads stay manageable, teams stay motivated, and projects stay on track. When the week is up, you can compare forecast hours to actuals using refreshingly quick-to-complete timesheets.

Resource Guru is also the only resource management software that lets you schedule people, equipment, and meeting rooms, all in one place. That means you can book everything you need for a project, in one simple drag-and-drop interface.

What do you like best about Resource Guru?

It's great and so easy to use. It's a big part of my working day as i'm using it constantly. You know what appointment or workload each member of staff is scheduled for and if you need to make amendments or personnel intergrations it's just a click of a button or a drag of the mouse away.

It means everyone knows their job requirements and any extra information can be loaded on to an engineer or personnels schedule for easy access and without the need to phone them every 5 minutes.

It also keeps track of any time off, public holidays and annual leave for each person on the diary.

And access to customer service is just as easy incase you need any additional support.

If you need to plan around new customers or put a new member of staff on the schedule, implementation is a doddle.

It makes working life a whole lot easier Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Guru?

I can't think of anything I don't like about it. It really works well for us as a whole. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Resource Guru solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reaching multiple resources and relaying ALL of the required information simultaneously at the same time.

This reduces the need for constant phone calls and enables the engineers more self suffitient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Resource Guru?

We implemented Resource Guru across our entire team and hardware resources, and it has completely transformed our approach to resourcing. The platform makes scheduling incredibly easy and efficient, ensuring that everyone has a clear understanding of their workload and upcoming tasks.

We use it daily to manage our projects, allocate resources, and maintain visibility across teams. The dashboard is easy to use, so it allows for quick updates and adjustments, preventing conflicts and ensuring optimal utilisation of both staff and equipment. The ability to see availability in real time has significantly improved our planning process, making it easier to stay organised and meet deadlines.

If we ever have any questions or suggestions for new features, the suport team is always on hand with lightning fast responses.

Overall, Resource Guru has become an essential tool in our workflow, streamlining our operations and enhancing productivity. We highly recommend it to any team looking for a smart, reliable, and user-friendly scheduling solution! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Guru?

We don't find there to be many things to dislike about Resource Guru. We'd love the ability to create custom reports but with some data manipulation from the exports currently available, we can get the information we need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Resource Guru?

Once you get the hang of it, it becomes a great software where you can manage your team's schedule effectively. It's great that you can measure how much time was invested in certain projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Guru?

Sometimes color categorization can be confusing.

It'd also be great if one could schedule long projects (projects that last for months or weeks), and have an option to not take into account weekends. Right the now, the alternative is to manually schedule the project week by week.

It's also a very "freelance" focused product, with mandatory options such as "billable" or "clients". We use for internal scheduling, to make our team's calendar and measure how much time it is invested in projects and office, and to know when we need more people to satisfy the need of the projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Resource Guru solving and how is that benefiting you?

The core business of our company is the installation of highly complex electrical equipment in production plants. To commission the equipment and oversee its installation, we have project engineers who are typically on-site (at client production facilities), configuring the equipment and supervising key project milestones. Resource Guru helps us efficiently schedule their activities and provides all stakeholders with a clear view of the project engineers’ agendas several days or even weeks in advance. Moreover, and this is the main reason we chose to use Resource Guru, the platform allows us to track how much time is being dedicated to each project and/or activity and assess our team’s workload capacity.

What do you like best about Resource Guru?

Incredibly easy to set up and learn how to use, lots of helpful features even on the starter package. I like that its always evolving with new features on offer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Guru?

I wish there was a way of uploading timelines from a spreadsheet without having to be on the premium package. I also wish you could have different amounts of hours on different days when a job is spread out across a few of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Resource Guru solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have it independant to our Project management system as we found this was the only way to keep control of resourcing. One person ( traffic manager) manages all the work and requests which is so much more helpful for us now. Rather than all the CS team moving everything wherever they wanted.

What do you dislike about Resource Guru?

Knowing exactly where to go to find what I am looking for can sometimes be a challenge when I am looking for a setting, for example, that I don't use every day., Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Resourse Guru allows me to see at a glance where my crews are scheduled and allows me, most importantly to make changes on the fly.

What do you like best about Resource Guru?

What I like best about Resource Guru is the schedule overview. I find it helpful to be able to filter and create my own team overview. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Guru?

Recently logging in has been changed, so that different browser windows get open. As I am working with bookmarks I don't like opening my RG Bookmark to always lead me to a new window or pop-up outside of my bookmarks that I need to close again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Resource Guru solving and how is that benefiting you?

It makes it resource capabilities more transparent and easy to manage. It lays the foundation of resource management discussions where the utilisation of different people within a bigger team can be reviewed, compared and adjusted on both short and long term.
