MEETING MAKER, INC. ADDS NEW ENTERPRISE FEATURES TO WEB-BASED RESOURCE SCHEDULING
TOOL
Resource Scheduler version 7.1 is now available
WALTHAM, MA, July 30, 2004 -- Meeting Maker, Inc., a leader in collaborative
time-management software solutions, today released Resource Scheduler version
7.1, a Web-based tool that helps organizations and institutions of any size
in any industry effectively manage, utilize and schedule shared resources. Resource
Scheduler offers customers a dramatic return on investment by addressing the
major inefficiencies that can occur when scheduling resources across an enterprise.
Resource Scheduler version 7.1, available as the core Web-based product or
integrated with Outlook/Exchange, includes functionality that helps large enterprises
gain more visibility and control over their resources. Resource hierarchy has
been expanded from three to five levels to accommodate multiple layers within
an organization. The levels can be set up to mirror an organization's physical
setup and each location can have from one to five levels, such as New York,
Rockefeller Center, Fifth Floor, Conference Rooms, Manhattan Room. An additional
two levels can be set up and individually selected to view only those resources
within a particular high-level location, such as a country or region, to accommodate
the most complex and largest setups. For example, an organization with offices
around the world could set up a separate resource navigational structure that
pertains to each region, such as U.S., Europe, Middle East and Asia.
"We look to partner with companies that can add significant value to the
services we provide our customers", said David Sherwood, vice president
for Jones Lang LaSalle, the world's leading real estate services and investment
management firm. "Meeting Maker, Inc. has taken resource management to
the next level with these enterprise features that solve the problems associated
with managing hundreds or thousands of resources such as conference rooms, A/V
equipment, and other corporate assets across a global organization. With Meeting
Maker's Resource Scheduler, we can help our customers save money and generate
more time to focus on their core business by utilizing their resources more
effectively."
"Meeting Maker, Inc.'s Resource Scheduler helps organizations of all sizes
to manage their resources effectively and efficiently, resulting in a strong
ROI," said Jeffrey Roof, director of product management for Meeting Maker,
Inc. "In today's economic climate, large-scale organizations are constantly
looking for ways to get the most value out of their resources. With Resource
Scheduler version 7.1, we can now provide these organizations with the added
functionality that will further enhance the organization and management of all
of their shared resources, regardless of the number of locations or levels of
hierarchy."
Resource Scheduler, offered in English, French and German, is available in
three editions: Standard, Professional, and Enterprise. Standard, the ideal
resource scheduling solution for a department or group of individuals, starts
at $485. Professional, perfect for managing shared resources across a small
