Default Software Tools for Keeping Hostel Staff Organized

Does anyone have any software tools that they use to manage hostels?

Here are a few examples that at least one hostel chain appears to be using:
  • Dokeos: online education software that can be used for training (features)
  • Google Apps - email management, docs, and more.
  • SugarCRM: customer relationship management software

Other related productivity software:
Any useful tools for staying organized, especially with many employees and/or at more than one location? Forums? Groupware? Calendars? CRM software?

A few additions:

Video Editing Software
Does anyone know of free or cheap programs for editing videos?

On Linux I use Kino video editing software. It only runs on Linux though.

More video editing software:

(for hostel videos)


I think Drupal would make a great management tool because it can do everything from hosting training docs, to staff communication, to group messaging...
