Superconducting resonators and parametric amplifiers are important components in scientific systems such as kinetic inductance detector arrays, frequency-domain multiplexers for other superconducting bolometers, spin-ensemble based memories, and circuit quantum electrodynamics demonstrators. In this paper, we report microwave measurements of superconducting Ti, Nb, and NbN resonators and their use as parametric amplifiers. These half-wave resonators were fabricated under near identical sputtering and lithographic conditions to ensure a like-for-like comparison of material properties. We report a wide range of properties and behaviours in terms of transition temperatures, resistivities, rate-limiting nonlinear response times, nonlinear dissipation, signs of the nonlinear inductances and their dependences on temperature and resonance harmonic. We have successfully operated Nb and NbN resonators as high gain parametric amplifiers, achieving greater than 20 dB of power amplification. We have shown that for a half-wave resonator, amplification can be realised not only in the fundamental resonance but also in the higher harmonic resonances. Further, for materials with high transition temperatures, eg Nb and NbN, amplification can be achieved at
