ResSched is a simple piece of scheduling software with a low learning curve. ResSched utilizes a large user-defined resource pool and user-defined bookings to display schedules. Who can view or book the resources or bookings is all based on the access level of the current user. Resources and bookings are organized by resource groups and categories respectively. Subsequent schedules can be viewed for single resources, groups, and other objects and the time period to view can be customized as well.

The absence of core desired features such as automatic scheduling and the generalized target domain of ResSched leaves much to be desired. Ultimately, ResSched is an ok product for general use but not something this project would aim to create.

Good Features:

• simplistic
• wide array of display options
• decent administration capabilites
• database integration hidden from end users

Bad Features:

• automatic database saves without an "undo" feature
• limited printing and exporting functionality
• scheduling conflicts are brought to the user's attention but are also overridable
• total font control seems superfluous
• simplicty brought upon by a lack of features is not a good feature

Missing Features:

• automatic schedule generation
• user preferences
• undo action
• manual schedule editing through a drag and drop interface
• fairness rating provided to the users
