"Sophisticated program which is easy to use"
Version: FET - Free Timetabling Software 5.16
Pros
Lots of help available to get you up to speed. I thought it would take me quite a time, but following the basic guide, and then the FET Manual, I was able to understand most of it in less than a day. You can get quite a sophisticated timetable by adding time and space(rooms) constraints. When you view the timetable html files, there are so many options that if you printed them all out, you could cover one wall in the staffroom.
Cons
Although the timetable output can be seen within the program a limited way, you have to launch a web browser to see the complete output. If you want some finesse formatting, you need to edit the CSS file. Its not obvious that you need to add rooms through space constraints, and your first timetable may contain teachers and subjects only.
Summary
Fantastic program that is open source, and probably does a much better job than expensive propriety software.
