I have had a very brief glimpse into the 3 Rings software which seems to have a great display for the calendar with available slots etc Does anyone have any recomendations of software that manages rotas/calendars nicely - they all appear to do the basic job of holding the volunteer profile data securely but we need quite a detailed rota for every day and I'm not sure Better Impact can do that.
