### "Perfect App"

August 29, 2023

5.0

### "From the user perspective on Float"

August 1, 2019

4.0

It is a good software with many features, but could be better.

Pros

Good GUI, good visual to look at the overall view of scheduled activities for many months, fairly easy to use, customizable according to the user preference

Cons

Even though I am able to import the Float Calendar on to my Microsoft Outlook (as most of the world uses it now) for a side-by-side or a overlapped visual, it is unable to do a two-way communication or merge option. This entails users like me to spend extra time to copy-paste back and forth, which I think is not productive.

### "Once you get the hang of it, it's great!"

February 12, 2020

4.0

Pros

I like how clearly I can see what I am supposed to be doing each day. I like how easy it is to amend any resourcing.

Cons

As we log time in a separate project management software, we have to manually update our time/tasks in Float. The total time doesn't automatically divide between the number of days that the task is spread across - this still requires manual arithmetic. It's great for booking in one-off tasks, but not so good for ongoing retainer projects.

February 6, 2020

4.0

Pros

Able to see overview of upcoming work for a person, a team or tag is invaluable. Easy to rearrange.

Cons

Can be hard to navigate. Having multiple jobs on a single day can be hard to see.

### "Great for resourcing"

August 13, 2020

4.0

Organizing the resources on our team

Pros

Good UI, easy to pickup and use, team really likes it

Cons

Very manual, not integrated with other tools, although I am not positive those options dont exist. It only covers a small slice of operations and I need more project management, intake, and routing of projects in one place.

### "Great for scheduling"

February 17, 2021

5.0

Super easy to use and a very valuable scheduling tool for our company

Pros

we primarily use this software for scheduling purposes and it is very intuitive and easy to use. We depend on it every day!

Cons

it seems like there are a lot of additional things Float offers that I have never even bothered to look into. Not sure if that’s really a bad thing, since it does exactly what we need it to do.

### "Very useful but it takes some time to learn how to use it"

August 2, 2019

4.0

Pros

My favourite feature of this software is the fact that everyone can customise how the app looks like. I can sort data exactly how I want and make it more useful for myself.

Cons

At the beginning splitting and moving tasks can be a quite hideous job. Especially in the environment where we have many changes during the week, it can be difficult to keep track on everything.

### "Great software"

August 13, 2020

4.0

Float has transformed our business - it is so easy to schedule people

Pros

Float is incredibly easy and simple to use

Cons

Reaction times can sometimes be slow - I suspect this is to do with intranet connection rather than the software though

Fantastic experience so far!

Pros

It is so easy to use, to log time, to get insights and create/visualize reports/actuals in a project delivery context so just AWESOME!

Cons

Nothing that comes to mind, it's really a great product

### "Float does what it says it does"

August 8, 2019

5.0

We're using it to schedule people on customer engagements and both internal and external projects.

Pros

Ease of use for scheduling and viewing schedules, drag and drop for moving items, and user control over things like color coding that make the schedule easier to read.

Cons

For the first year we used it, it was very slow - lots of lag, but after an update earlier in 2019 that;s een completely resolved and performance is now excellent.

Pros

It is easy to use and the format is very simple yet effective and does exactly what it needs to do

Perfect overview of capacities, across locations. Free time units are easier to find and use.

Pros

Every employee can intervene or be managed by an admin.

No alarm function. Or didn't I simply find it?

### "Good product!"

January 17, 2019

5.0

I'm a customer. I'm using Float in my company since a couple of years.

Pros

I like to have all the people in my team well organised. I know if people are available and I can organise the sales accordingly. Suggested!

Cons

Sometimes the interaction is not so smooth e.g. I have to load some sections while I'd like to see the whole picture from the beginning. Also it's a little bit pricey!

### "Float Review"

January 30, 2019

5.0

I love using Float! I had to convince my managers to hop on board but once I provided a tutorial everyone jumped on board. Staff comes to me and asks who is available in a week to help with something and I can very quickly say go to person A, they have availability. I no longer have to talk to my boss and my other project managers to check someone's availability and I can easily solve staffing challenges. Float is exactly what I needed for my department.

Pros

Float doesn't get mixed up with trying to provide so many options that it becomes unusable. When I was evaluating software this is what I found everywhere. I needed help visualizing what my employees are working on and that is exactly what Float provides. It is easy to use and you can put as little or as much information in as you want. Even with the tiniest amount of data you get to see everyone's schedules.

Cons

I don't actually think it's the software but I think it's my internet browser.. Sometimes it is hard for me to scroll through my employees and look at the schedule. Again though, I don't think it's the software but my firefox browser causing the issue... I know, I know, switch to chrome already.. I just don't want too.

### "A handy scheduling tool"

February 6, 2020

5.0

We save a lot of time with Float and it's super simple to use, especially compared to our previous system JobTrack.

Pros

Really straightforward to use. I like using Float because it's an easy way of seeing what I have scheduled for the week and which projects I need to keep an eye on. It's also easy to see what my colleagues are working on and when people are on holiday.

Cons

It's difficult to work out who's working on the same project and when as a user. It'd be helpful if you could click on a project and it would show you who's booked in and when for that project.

Hi Ria, Thanks for your review! You can switch to the project view in the top left-hand corner of your schedule. Your projects appear along with their current budget status, while your team and their tasks appear directly below each project for easy access. You can switch between people or projects view at any time. I hope that helps!

### "float - Great for resource planning!"

January 29, 2019

4.0

We use float to keep an overview of free resources (Consultants) for project staffing. It is easy to identify wholes in the schedule and find people for short term ad-hoc projects.

Pros

We use the zapier integration to connect float to salesforce. This is how we automatically have our salesforce projects in float.

Cons

We plan about 160 resources and have well over 2000 projects. Sometimes float gets pretty flow and the scheduling takes a while becuase of the auto complete feature.

### "Useful at a glance"

January 16, 2019

3.0

Pros

Gives you a quick to understand overview of the schedule.

Cons

Scrolling is fiddly both on web and native iOS app. This makes it very tedious to use for anything other than a quick glance at the next few days.
