### "Great and easy to use scheduling and project time tracking tool"

January 23, 2019

4.0

Our benefits include visibility and ease of reporting, especially for customers, who pay on hour basis.

Pros

I tested like 15+ tools, and FLOAT was the only one allowing me to set specific hours for the tasks! All other tools only allow to instruct the team member to work 3 hours on certain date on Project X without instructing the user when exactly to do it. This might not seem a lot, but allows to combine time scheduling with calendar. It is extremely easy to use the tool, and reporting works (almost) great, allowing for CSV export. With the tool I can report to management and clients who, for how many hours, what tasks have completed under certain projects.

Cons

There is no gantt chart view of the projects (not big deal for me, but some colleagues miss it). There is no way, or at least I can't find a way to set custom report date range. The options are last year, this week, today, etc., but there is no way to set a period from 5 May 2017 to 10 Jan 2019. So far it is not an issue, as we've been using FLOAT for several months, but I'm not sure how I'll make reports in the future...

### "Good, but could be better "

January 17, 2019

4.0

Float is easy to use and does the job it was made for, I’m happy using it as well as the rest of my colleagues.

Pros

Easy to see, enter and edit events on the timeline Very clear layout Colour coordination is helpful and good looking

Cons

I use the schedule on my iPhone to see where I am working, my manager enters extra details I can only see when I rotate my phone- would be excellent if users could expand boxes to see full texts inside.

### "Simple to use and perfect for scheduling"

December 6, 2018

5.0

I've used it in a larger agency and individually. Definitely the best scheduling software for creative teams.

Pros

The user interface is really easy to use. You can colour code all of your project, drag, drop or duplicate tasks. It's lightweight so you can update tasks quickly without needing detailed project info.

Cons

The allocation of time across multiple days. I would prefer to do it manually and it can be a bit tricky to update time.

### "Float Review"

February 27, 2019

4.0

Great for small projects, but I think it could include more related features.

Pros

I thought that Float was simple to use. You can easily assign jobs to team members, and edit them. Its also really helpful how small the learning curve is, allowing people new to Float to get used to it quickly and without hassle.

Cons

While Float is really good at scheduling, I think there is opportunity to build in more features related to scheduling so that they dont have to be tracked elsewhere, such as time-tracking.

### "The only calendar I actually look at"

August 25, 2020

5.0

Pros

How easily I can see my weekly projects, how long I've got to complete a task and what my peers are up to as well!

Cons

The mobile app could do with being able to check more than 4 weeks at a time, and offline access for when travelling or limited data.

### "Managers love it!"

February 5, 2020

4.0

Float is great. My managers love it.

Pros

Managers at my office use Float to quickly understand what tasks the analysts have on their plate. Since they have a larger understanding of the goings on around here, they can shift our focus around with ease and ensure our work product gets despite an ever shifting priority.

Cons

Inputting tasks into the schedule can be at times clunky. The quality is lacking on some ease of life features, such as click drag features, copy and paste, and group select.

### "Float is a Simple yet powerful tool"

November 15, 2019

5.0

Overall, float made my life easier (both as a user and later as an admin). The tutorial videos (such as the ones on youtube) really helped understand some of the possible functionalities much better bringing in further efficiencies.

Pros

Used Float while working on crucial pilot projects for a big client. One really appreciable aspect of float is its simplicity and the intuitiveness of the user interface (drag-and-drop). the colour coding is such a time saver and helps avoid confusion). Adding, deleting, modifying tasks, meetings and projects is fast and easy. The fact that each activity is maintained and updated in real time (RT) helps keep all team members on the same page.

Cons

Even though the software itself is quite fast, I sometimes faced issues with it consuming significant RAM space while running in the background (though this improved after some updates) which slowed down the overall speed of the system.

### "A simple, easy and fast scheduling solution"

January 17, 2019

4.0

We have many different teams with 4+ team members in each and planning control on a daily basis, with a tool that doesn't require 10 minutes to adjust a simple timeline, is key to our business. We needed a clear, simple and efficient scheduling tool and we found exactly what we needed with Float.

Pros

Our teams greatly appreciate Float for its simplicity of use and clear, simple design. It is shared via browsers like ourprevious tool but much clearer and simpler to handle. It was quickly adpoted and no one looked back.

Cons

It can sometimes be confusing when too many ressources and projetcs are displayed on the screen. Additonally, the relocation of a task can sometimes be tricky when many blocks are too close from each other but nothing that some practice cannot overcome.

### "Love the Calendar View"

January 17, 2019

4.0

We're utilizing Float as our traffic management software.

Pros

The best feature about Float is how easy it is to learn and use! Our organization loves the calendar view so we can easily see what all of our employees are working on.

Cons

It's hard to delete old users. Even though we've removed previous employees from the system, their names still show up in various drop down menus.

### "Simple and convenient, but not as fast as it could be"

March 5, 2019

4.0

My team is planning tasks for teammates for every day a month or two ahead, Float is really helpful with that.

Pros

I like the clarity. You just look take a glance and know what's your task (or tasks) for today and how much time you have to do it. I also like colorful tiles, so you easily search tasks from the same project in teammates week plan. Simple and convenient.

Cons

I didn't like the speed. With about 30 people in team, scrolling through tasks isn't smooth. But I know the team works on this problem so hope to see the solution soon.

February 6, 2020

4.0

Real time visibility to the team for task assigned to them

Pros

Able to include tags to identify unique qualities of my team, able to search using multiple criteria. Online anywhere access to the planner

Cons

1\. Does not provide a snapshot of people who are not assigned any task. 2. Reports - fields can be sorted but cannot be filtered for the required parameters 3. In our organisations task repeat annually - we need a feature that would rollforward the previous year tasks.

Reason for choosing Float

Subscription payment model, quick to set it up

### "A good tool to manage resources"

August 29, 2023

4.0

Pros

The leads of our team use Float to manage and share the allocation of their resources with the head of the department. It's a very intuitive, useful product that really helps us coordinate our work as a team. It's easy to create new projects, assign them, and change the allocation.

Cons

When amending the allocated time, it sometimes lags — but there are no major issues.
