### "Easy to use, solid for scheduling"

April 22, 2026

5.0

Overall, my experience with Float has been very positive. It’s a reliable and user-friendly tool that makes managing schedules and team workloads much more straightforward. The visual layout and real-time updates help keep everything organized and transparent, which is especially useful when juggling multiple projects or shifting priorities.

Pros

What stands out most about Float is how intuitive and visual the scheduling experience is. The drag-and-drop interface makes it easy to map out projects, assign team members, and adjust timelines in real time without getting bogged down in complexity.

Cons

One drawback of Float is that, while the interface is clean and easy to use, it can feel a bit limited when you need more detailed reporting or deeper customization. If you’re looking for highly granular analytics or advanced filtering, the built-in tools may not go as far as you’d like.

### "My experience with Float "

March 12, 2026

5.0

Float has been a game changer for my team. The visual timelines make managing tasks easy, and the calendar view keeps everything organized in one place. The interface is simple and intuitive, so my team picked it up right away. Customer support is quick, and time tracking helps us stay on budget. Worth every penny

Pros

I’ve been using Float at work for a while, and honestly, the Resource Scheduling with Visual Timelines has changed how we operate. Now, I can actually see everyone’s workload at a glance. No more accidentally piling too much on someone or scrambling to shift things around. Making adjustments is quick and painless

Cons

Float works pretty well on desktop, but the mobile app has a few annoying syncing glitches. Every now and then, things just don’t line up right, and it throws off our workflow. It’s frustrating. I really hope the team tackles this in future updates so using Float feels smooth, no matter what device you’re on.

We switched to Float once we saw how much better it handles project management. The resource scheduling and visual timelines are just way more advanced than what Trello offers, so keeping track of workloads got a whole lot easier.

### "I had better luck with this than the spreadsheet programs that always seemed to break down"

April 17, 2026

4.0

This allows me to look at the calendar for holidays so I will never plan a “dead” project. It helps us keep track of our budget and billable hours so we do not lose everything.

Pros

It shows me on a timeline, when people are available. This is adequate; I wasn’t really expecting the colors to make much sense or be an overwhelming mess but surprisingly it worked well enough for our clients. Okay, the block view works great for seeing the blocks of work I need to do during the day. And the program did not freeze up after I entered all the employees’ information (which took way longer than expected).

Cons

The mobile version of this application is completely ridiculous. Once I enter a task, I am forever stuck in some pop-up and I have to clear my entire browser history to escape. If I use the Google calendar feature to connect this application to my own calendar, I am unable to adjust the meeting times. They remain as scheduled at the bottom of each day’s block, basically “stuck” there and very frustrating.

### "Great for time-tracking"

April 30, 2026

5.0

Overall, a great time-tracking platform. Easy to learn for beginners with great customer support and training.

Pros

I love the ease, layout, design, colors, and capabilities to schedule and block time for myself and others. Super easy software to navigate. Easy to integrate calendars for faster time tracking.

Cons

Scheduling project time for an extensive team can be intimidating at first, but with time comes ease.

### "Clean resource planning tool that teams actually understand"

May 4, 2026

5.0

Float does resource scheduling well without overcomplicating it. If your main pain point is visibility into team capacity and workload distribution, it solves that problem cleanly. Not a full project management replacement but a solid complement to whatever else you're running.

Pros

The visual timeline makes it easy to see who's working on what at a glance. Scheduling and capacity planning are intuitive and it doesn't take long for team leads to get comfortable with it. Good for keeping projects from stepping on each other.

Cons

Time tracking side is more limited than expected and reporting options could be deeper. Integrations with other tools work but feel a bit basic.

### "Easy to use"

May 10, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with float is great, because it makes it so much easier to purchase things for our clients and our company.

Pros

I like how easy it is to make purchases for our company, and also how easy it is to submit the receipts to get reimbursed.

Cons

I disliked the colour of this card as it is the same colour as my mastercard and I have accidentally used my float business card for my personal use because I thought it was my mastercard.

5.0

Pros

me encanta que ofrezca una aplicacion movil que permite gestionar correos contactos ventas registros de llamadas y demas, desde cualquier lugar con acceso a internet, facilitando y asegunrando comunicacion continua con las operaciones.

Cons

es de tener en cuenta que al ser un aplicativo intuitivo su curva de aprendizaje es bastante extensa, y tardara un tiempo en costumbrarce a ella.

### "An indispensable tool for project management"

February 6, 2025

4.0

An excellent tool for project tracking and control, workload management, and employee work time. If you need to organize and structure internal areas of your company, this is the software you need to get started

Pros

An excellent tool for project management and time management, both for yourself and your work team

Cons

Although it is very comprehensive, it lacks tools to personalize more detailed or complex tasks for assigning to staff, like Trello or Asana does

### "Easy to use but can look like an info dump"

July 31, 2025

4.0

Pros

It is very easy to use. I also like the filter so I can see just me. We are using to get a general sense of tracking time.

Cons

Some views are "too much" to look at. It is very crowded and hard to read when looking at everyone.

### "My experience wit Float"

May 25, 2026

5.0

Overall, I would recommend to use it, since it easier to navigate and tools available are enough to set up with complication

Pros

What I liked most about Float is that it is very easy to use and helps manage expenses smoothly. The app makes tracking spending and company cards simple and fast.

Cons

One thing I don’t like about Float is that the schedule and approval process can sometimes feel slow when waiting for updates or confirmations.

### "It allows us to have better planned projects"

October 11, 2024

5.0

A complete improved planning of each person's work, delivering tasks that allows for better performance and progress

Pros

The entire visualization of the work allows us to have it better managed by giving a daily plan to each person according to their role in the company so that the work flow is equitable and covers the needs of each one. The production schedule has allowed us to have the progress in real time so that we can move forward with everything at the same time and deliver projects at the same time

Cons

Nothing bothers me and I have not had any type of circumstance that makes me angry

It’s a tool that’s become an essential part of my workflow, helping me stay organized and manage projects more efficiently.

Great

Pros

To visually schedule a whole department of designers, which is easy editable

Cons

I find the reporting a little tricky when there are archived members. Also similar to when purchases are pro-rata for new users added part way through the billing cycle, it would be better if credits were applied for users removed part way through the cycle too

### "Float - good tool for capacity planning"

August 22, 2023

4.0

Overall, it's a very convenient & reliable tool from a project manager's perspective. Some changes would be helpful, but in general it is a massive help in resource planning and I can't imagine working without it.

Pros

It is a great tool to be integrated with jira - it works well for our team, it's a seamless, smooth integration that helps us estimate time & choose the right resource for any jira tasks. It is also easy to follow by the users who are marking tasks "complete", adding comments, mark bookings as tentative. All very clear and transparent.

Cons

The integration with google calendar doesn't work that well. Some of the bookings are wrong / outdated / are not being updated / duplicated / not being displayed in a correct project or are missing. Luckily, the support team is open to help with this kind of issues. Also, the annoying feature is that the "View in jira" link doesn't work for duplicated bookings. It doesn't work well for our team as more people use the same tasks on jira in different time. It's impossible to search using the jira ticket number (you have to know the ticket name). Also, ticket numbers are not displayed in the “Task” field- that causes some confusion because we work with tasks with similar names.

### "Makes capacity juggling so much easier"

August 22, 2023

5.0

Pros

The tool has a simple overview, visually similar to already known calendars. This means that you don't need any time to familiarize yourself with it. Just click and add entries.If you work with many different customers, you can create them once and then easily add individual projects within these customer folders.I especially like the fact that I can tell my clients apart right at first glance using the Color Coding feature. But when I need more information, I can also click on the entries and have access to the job number, the available budget, and any other information that might be available.Thanks Float - you make my daily work so much easier :-)

Cons

What could be improved:Currently, when I enter vacation, my projects in the same time frame just disappear from the schedule. This is quite inconvenient and should be fixed. It would be more practical to at least be warned and transfer the projects individually to someone else from the team, or be able to specify vacation substitutions so that the projects are automatically transferred.Also, it would be great if you could duplicate blockers via copy & paste. The split tool is often a bit impractical to use.

### "The best tool for our purpose, with some issues"

August 29, 2023

4.0

Pros

It gives a good overview over the planned projects, even if there are many employees in different teams. The planning, time tracking and reporting features seem to work in a stable manner. Sorting and filtering is done really well.

Cons

There are some UX problems which are just plain weird. Scheduling time for an employee is tedious because the planned time affects the duration and vice-versa. We do our planning on a weekly basis instead of day-to-day, so we're often entering time planned like 0.4h/day which is more complicated than we would like it to be. There are some weird issues with the API as well, where some fields are not being applied correctly, or behavior changes with updates.

### "Really good program for small businesses "

August 22, 2023

3.0

Really useful program that we all use daily. Really helpful training sessions.

Pros

Easy to use program for a small business as a central place for tasks, projects and personal

Cons

Not being able to accurately time tasks, it would be really useful to have a timer instead of a logging system. No clear way of making tasks clear priorities for creative. System for logging could be better so that creatives can send any notes on incomplete/unstarted tasks back to the allocator.

### "You might manage without it, but you really shouldn't"

June 17, 2022

5.0

Good, really helps to smooth things out by communicating the schedule to everyone concerned, easy to learn and use, support is fast and friendly.

Pros

Zapier integration, user interface/layout, ability for others to view the schedule without being a billed user, flexibility, detailed reporting function, contstant improvements and updates.

Cons

I'd like to have employee birthdays displayed on the schedule somehow, other calendars use suitable icons e.g. cake with candles. There's really nothing else important I'd ask for.

### "Imaging floating through production or traffic management meetings!"

March 21, 2023

5.0

We have been using it for almost 2 years, overall we are happy although it took a bit to get the hang of things. The customer service was super nice and helpful the couple of times I have reachedout.We have tried the time recording module a few months back but the price was too much for us at that time.

Pros

That once you get the hang of it is great tool for my team (about 40 team members). The big board gives great overview and the filters work like charm! As long as you have set them up correctly. This took a bit to click through all the team members but once done it make traffic management SO much easier!

Cons

Lack of multiple currencies, very cumbersome managment of retainer projects (those that need to be repeated month by month). Phases don't really work for me as it's too much maintenance and it's not the easiest to do
