Non-profit organizations need to have efficient methods to assign workers and volunteers to various tasks to ensure that projects are completed successfully. In the past, this was done using pen and paper or spreadsheets. These days, many non-profits use software such as resource scheduling tools. These online resource scheduling tools can make scheduling more efficient and reduce human error. When non-profit managers are selecting a resource scheduling tool, they should ensure that it has features such as the ability to schedule workers from the software, the ability to create reports, and integrations with third-party software systems. Examples of online resource scheduling tools that non-profits can use include Talygen, ClickUp, Zip Schedules, Resource Guru, and Skedulo.

Overview of Online Resource Scheduling Tools

1. Talygen

Talygen is a software suite that includes resource scheduling tools for non-profits. The resource scheduling tools include features such as scheduling users for tasks in advance and creating reports. Managers can assign tasks to users via a drag-and-drop menu. These tasks can be scheduled in advance to prevent scheduling conflicts. Also, managers can schedule tasks on an hourly or daily basis. Managers can view tasks in a calendar view, Gantt chart, or Kanban board. Managers can also designate off days for volunteers. These tasks can be performed through the desktop or Talygen's mobile app.

Another benefit of using Talygen is that it includes an online reporting tool. This online reporting tool allows users to create custom reports on metrics such as project progress and volunteer hours. Users can create these reports through Talygen or by exporting them through Microsoft Excel. The reports can then be viewed on a centralized dashboard. Talygen also integrates with third-party systems such as Microsoft Outlook, Microsoft Dynamics, QuickBooks, Google Drive, and Google Calendar. Non-profits can also use Talygen's other modules, such as time tracking, project management, unified communication, and invoicing. Due to its range of features and flexibility, Talygen is an excellent resource scheduling tool for non-profit organizations to use.

2. ClickUp

ClickUp is a resource scheduling tool that non-profits can use. One of the benefits of using ClickUp is that managers can quickly and easily schedule users for tasks. These tasks can be viewed in a calendar view or through charts. Managers can assign tasks through a drag-and-drop menu. Another benefit of using ClickUp is that it includes an online reporting tool. These reports can track metrics such as volunteer hours. ClickUp can also integrate with third-party software systems such as Google Drive, Google Calendar, and Microsoft Outlook. However, a disadvantage of using ClickUp is that the user interface can be difficult to navigate.

3. Zip Schedules

Zip Schedules is an online resource scheduling tool that non-profits can use to schedule volunteers for projects and tasks. A key feature of Zip Schedules is that managers can designate off days for users. These tasks can be performed through the desktop website or the mobile app. Managers can also import information such as worker information from employee spreadsheets. Another benefit of using Zip Schedules is that it includes unified communication so workers can be reached at any time. However, a disadvantage of using Zip Schedules is that it does not include third-party integrations like other online resource scheduling tools like Talygen.

4. Resource Guru

Managers of non-profits can use Resource Guru to schedule volunteers for tasks and projects. Managers assign tasks to users through a drag-and-drop menu. Managers can also view and edit off-days for workers. Resource Guru also includes an online reporting tool that displays information such as time spent on a volunteer project. Another benefit of Resource Guru is that it can integrate with Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook. However, some non-profit organizations may hesitate to use Resource Guru as their resource scheduling tool because the web app is somewhat slow.

5. Skedulo

Skedulo allows non-profit managers to quickly and easily assign tasks to volunteers. Managers can view information on scheduled tasks through a centralized dashboard. Information can also be viewed through a calendar view. Managers can also create custom reports. These tasks can be performed through the desktop website or the mobile app. Another benefit of using Skedulo is that it can integrate with third-party tools such as Microsoft Dynamics and QuickBooks. However, a downside of using Skedulo as a resource scheduling tool is that the software has various bugs.

Online resource scheduling tools are helpful for non-profit organizations to use. An efficient resource scheduling tool allows non-profit managers to quickly and easily assign volunteers to projects and tasks. Many resource schedulers also include reporting tools so managers can track a project's progress. Online resource scheduling tools can also increase productivity while reducing human error that arises from relying on pen and paper.

If non-profit managers are looking for the best resource scheduling tool, they should use Talygen. Talygen includes features such as scheduling in advance, setting off days, reports, and time tracking.
