### "Easy to use, Outlook syncing could be better"

September 14, 2023

4.0

Pros

We primarily use float for availability of time and tracking what days we will be working on what projects; which it does this with ease.

Cons

Integration with outlook could be better, allow the option to bring through projects into outlook with different statuses as currently i am always showing as busy on teams.

### "Look no further if you are searching for a Resource Planning and Team Scheduling app"

December 6, 2019

3.0

We were using Google Sheets to plan our resources, but it was a mess. Float is just sexy!

Pros

Great visual design experience. An eagle-eye view of whole resources and team schedules. Slack integration is just lit.

Cons

No project management software feature. If it was there, we would have used just float for both project management and resource planning/scheduling.

### "Simple too to manage teams of developers and more"

January 17, 2019

4.0

Overall I would recommend Float, and hope to see its features expand in future.

Pros

Float gives me an instant view of what my team is working on day to day and in future. The filters allow me to show just the information I need. Tags allow project managers to book the correct resources for specific tasks.

Cons

The interface was very slow to scroll, however a recent update improved this. A feature I would personally like to see is history, as currently there is no way to see if a booking has been pulled or moved.

### "Easy to use and perfect for staying on top of your tasks and meetings"

June 20, 2022

4.0

managing different teams and staying on top of the progress each one made at any time

Pros

the stacked design where every project has its section and you can scroll between them and how seamless it is to access different tasks.

### "Easy Timesheet Recording"

June 17, 2022

4.0

Pros

The best thing about Float is that you can insert time according to the projects instead of just putting in one cumulative block. Moreover, you can move the blocks around the timesheet according to importance or preference.

Cons

There is no feature to copy paste time blocks - in other words, duplicate time blocks - since a lot of time one needs to enter the same amount of time on different days with the exacts comments.

### "Overall a good tool"

August 6, 2019

4.0

It's one of the best tools on the market.

Pros

Float is a relatively easy to use tool regarding its amount of features. The UI is quite intuitive and the Float guys are updating and implementing features regularly.

Cons

Since we implemented our whole company in Float the system got slower. It was much faster when we had only 30-40 employees to handle. Now with nearly 500 it often reacts slowly and that feels like a bug. There are a lot of features still missing and I wish there were more possibilities to customise.

### "Great tool for day to day business!"

August 2, 2019

4.0

Pros

Float is very easy to use and makes you activities for the day very insight-full. As project manager it is possible to see all the activities for the team in a blink of an eye. The sorting functions are great; by project, by team and more. Also adding repetitive tasks and scheduled items is very easy. This tool improved our daily workflow greatly!

Cons

For now we really don't have any dislikes at all. All our requirements for good planning/team management software are met in Float.

Switched from

[Toggl Plan](https://www.capterra.com/p/140685/Teamweek/)

Float offered way more options for a better price. The use and more functionality (like easy repetitive tasks) where something we really missed in other applications.

### "My Opinion"

January 24, 2019

5.0

This is very convenient when it comes to making plans and adding people to your list to show what type of work they have to do on a certain day. And its Easy to use and you can adding people in agroup to make it easier to find people.

Cons

nothing so far. Only issue is it takes a while to load sometimes besides that i have no issue.

### "Fantastic Productivity Tool"

September 4, 2019

5.0

Business problem solved was accurate resource calendaring. Previous tool made it a challenge to get an accurate picture of what resources had availability. Float gives me a quick and easy way to manage and assign resources to projects. I can report on activities, track billable activities and how available my resources are.

Pros

Simplicity / Ease of User Interface Drag & Drop Reporting

Cons

Not much - wish it had a time tracking system so it could replace another tool

### "Float review - February 2021"

February 17, 2021

4.0

Overall, it's been a good experience. As mentioned above, I haven't ran into any issues yet, so I really don't have much to complain about.

Pros

I enjoy the simple UI and the ability to see what I am working on and when. It looks clean and I haven't had any problems with it so far.

Cons

Not sure if this is a fault of Float, but when signing in, I have to press the 'sign in with Google' button twice and it's a bit annoying. I'm guessing that's a bug either on Float's side or Google.

### "Great Resourcing Tool"

June 22, 2022

5.0

Pros

how easy the interface is and having all of the schedules in one place for resourcing purposes

Cons

how you cannot duplicate projects - you have to create it again.

### "Good ressource management, time tracking and reporting app"

May 24, 2019

5.0

Good for getting a visual overview of team workloads and precise reporting of time spent on projects. Gives you the opportunity to actively plan your time beforehand and not only to react like a classic time tracking tool would.

Pros

What makes this app unique is the ability to use it as team planning and ressource management but at the same time to track worked time and have powerful reporting and analytic tools. Very smart interface with a filtering bar on top that lets you easily focus on persons, projects, etc.

Cons

Integrations could be improved (two-way google calendar sync, native toggl sync) and you need some time to get used to the main timeline view (but it works quite well, wenn you do). a way to reflect flexible work hours would be good (i.e. total hour target for a week or month but not per day). a gannt view for quick project planning would also be appreciated.

### "Float Review"

July 1, 2022

4.0

I use float on about a daily basis and I find it to be a painless experience.

Pros

It was easy to pick up when I was trained relatively recently, I was able to teach the new hire how to use it quickly too.

Cons

I have no real issues with the product, although I feel like there are others at my company that get more use out of it than me. However, for my relatively simple needs it does the job just fine.

### "Easy to use"

August 23, 2023

5.0

Pros

The setup is fairly easy, the product is self explanotry and the overview is very easy to read and see. You can quickly check what all the planned tasks are for everyone. also the app with notification is a great addition.

Cons

I would like the option to see the location of tasks on the overview page/add locations to a task.

### "Finally, the tool we'd been looking for"

August 14, 2020

5.0

Pros

The simplicity of the platform, it's so easy to drag, drop and view all of the company's assigned tasks as a very quick glance. The ability to be able to switch to project view (vs just people) is great too.

Cons

Early on when we started with the platform some of the usability was cumbersome & slow. However, it's changed a lot since, and is a very smooth platform now. I think one of the things I'd like most is the ability to add notes alongside milestones so that we can put notes in about what that milestone includes.

Reason for choosing Float

Simplicity, and cloud based like our other business tools are.

### "Easy Employee Management"

February 5, 2020

3.0

Overall I quite like Float. Integration with Google has made it very easy to login which is a major plus compared to some competitors in this space. The simplistic nature and search, as well as the addition of new records, make it quick and easy to use.

Pros

The software provides an easy overview of all employee's day-to-day activities across the business for all locations. This becomes especially important as our business has on-shore and off-shore resources with teams that need to work collaboratively and at capacity.

Cons

Some aspects of the software can be clunky. Despite being given access, it required a refresh on my user permissions before it worked as expected. Simple additions like the ability to duplicate/copy events created would make it more efficient.

### "Great Ressource Planning Tool"

August 20, 2020

4.0

Pros

Float is a good tool for resource planning. It enables us to allocate our personnel effectively. It is not overloaded with unnecessary project management functions.

Cons

The missing sum function in the daily planning is annoying. Especially with many parallel running projects the schedule view can become confusing.

Reason for choosing Float

Better Functions

### "Efficient and helpful"

August 14, 2020

5.0

It helps easily keep track of what we have to do and what we've done. It joins together to do list and schedule, which is really nice to save time. And also very useful to see what colleagues are working on and if they're available.

Pros

The ease of scheduling tasks, being able to duplicate them throughout the weeks, and also the reports of time spent, overtime, etc.

Cons

Nothing, it's all pretty good and smooth to use.

June 15, 2022

Pros

The scheduling enables me to schedule time and plan my workweek - making timesheets also easy after wards.

Cons

No timer feature - really need an option to have a timer.

### "Flexible and responsive"

August 2, 2019

4.0

Float has given me the ability to schedule resources from a regional perspective and utilise cross project multi skilled resources. I can easily search a resource skill and view their availability !

Pros

Being able to make changes and have those changes reflect live on my teams phones is a HUGE benefit!

Cons

responsiveness of the website. Would be great to have local instance for a faster response when making changes

Switched from

[Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/)

Running multiple schedules of resources for multiple projects it became erroneous and problematic to schedule resources in Excel as we have multiple managers with their own priority's! Float means we can all see the global schedule and make changes on the fly

### "Quick and easy"

September 5, 2019

4.0

I find Float very quick and easy to use. On the rare occasions I have shared feedback with the Float team responses have been swift and considered. There have been significant improvements during the time I've been using Float which has streamlined features and usability.

Pros

I think one of the most attractive features is it's ease for inputting data and activities. It's quick and easy, and this makes it easy to teach and implement within a team. The last thing you want is a tedious process that is time consuming and slows down productivity.

Cons

Overall I think it is very simple and easy to use. Some of the recent updates and features that have been added over the last couple years have overcome some of the issues that I probably noticed when I started using it.

### "Good schedule builder"

June 28, 2022

5.0

Pros

Easy to use for tracking schedules and planning projects. I like that you are able to see who is available to help build teams for a project.

Cons

Only thing that is annoying is that I can't have a task repeat on a reoccurring date, it only allows for specific days of the month (i.e. first Monday of the month). I would like the option to have something repeat on the first day of the month.

### "Indispensable tool for efficient resource management"

July 18, 2023

5.0

A prominent feature is the ability to integrate with other project management and communication tools. This has greatly facilitated collaboration between teams and synchronization of important information on a single platform. Additionally, the option to make bulk edits to project plans has simplified the process of updating and adjusting, saving me a lot of time and effort.

Pros

What I like the most is its intuitive and easy-to-use interface. I love how visual it is, with bright, light colors that make planning very visual and easy to understand. Also, I love the real-time view of team members' availability, including holidays and time off. This helps me assign tasks effectively and ensures that I don't overburden any team member.

Cons

While this platform offers a lot of useful features, there are a few areas where I feel like it could use some improvement. One of them is the lack of a built-in time tracking feature. While I can assign tasks and see my team's availability, I can't track the time spent on each task within the platform. This requires you to use an additional tool to track and record the time spent on each task.
