eResource Scheduler

What eResource Scheduler is

eResource Scheduler is resource scheduling and management software for project-driven teams in fields such as engineering, consulting, accounting, architecture, and professional services. It can be used to plan people, equipment, conference rooms, and tools. The Scheduling module offers drag-and-drop planning, multiple working calendars, configurable access rights, heat maps, utilization and availability reports, CSV import and export, and an open REST API. Timesheets supports actual-time entry, manual or automatic approvals, and reporting that compares planned and actual work. The Financial module covers resource and project financials, rate settings, and financial reports.

Mobile apps for iOS and Android let users change schedules, enter timesheets, handle approvals, and receive notifications. The integration information describes Jira work-item syncing, configurable notifications, and third-party calendar syncing through a Webcal link; Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, and n8n are marked Coming Soon. The 30-day trial provides access to every module and does not require a credit card. Monthly prices are billed per resource: Authentication Plus is $2/mo, Scheduling Plus $3/mo, Financial $4/mo, Timesheets $5/mo, and Scheduling $6.25/mo. Teams scheduling 200 or more resources or choosing every module can request a custom quote. The vendor describes the product as serving project-driven teams of 100 to 5,000 people and says it is live in more than 29 countries.
