Ability to see an overview of the entire teams work load.

### "Much better than spreadsheets!"

February 18, 2021

5.0

Using the templates provided by Float to upload our data meant we were up and running very quickly. Customer service were quick to get back to me on an issue we has with automated emails.

Pros

It is visually a much clearer way to see what is going on in our studio in terms of managing resource. Previously our schedules were kept in spreadsheets which weren't engaged with so for everyone to have access to view Float it has been so helpful to have an overview of capacity in the studio.

Cons

The milestone feature could be improved.

Reason for choosing Float

I've used Float in previous companies and was very happy with the software so didn't look for any other options this time although I am generally aware of what else is out there.

### "Float for planning"

May 28, 2019

4.0

We use Float to plan our 1 week sprints. Everyone in the team is in the tool and we plan bi-weekly and update our tasks as needed. I like the tool and the visual, but I have found more success in planning sprints through a tool like Jira where you can add story points, estimate work better and hold people and teams accountable when they don't delivery on time repeatedly.

Pros

I like the drag and drop ease of use and the visual status screens that can be configured by team or specific members to get a high level overview of the week for planning

Cons

I don't like the lack of trace ability within the tool. I have found from using the tool that it is very to simply push tasks back sprint to sprint without ever really being able to see how often this is happening. It's hard to hold team members accountable to their commitments without a history of on time success for different tasks.

### "A helpful tool for keeping track of what's happening"

August 1, 2019

4.0

Overall Float is a very helpful tool, but has a few minor technical issues that can be a source of frustration.

Pros

For me, the most helpful feature of Float is the ability to see what everyone else in my team is up to and when they're away. What's also helpful is the ability to retrospectively view what I have worked on previously.

Cons

Float offers the facility to link with other calendars with an iCal link, unfortunately this can sometimes be unreliable as the link seems to expire meaning it needs to be set up again.

### "FloatING along with Ease"

January 17, 2019

5.0

It helps each individual user to follow a simple work day structure and helps the whole studio time manage jobs to help keep within budget.

Pros

Float is the most comprehensive scheduling device on the market for our marketing studio. Easy to manage, to follow, and makes trafficing our work through our studio a breeze.

Cons

Colour coding of each individual row and column could have the function to change this.

### "Easy to use"

August 13, 2020

4.0

Pros

Intuitive interface, clean and straightforward. There's not much cluster on the schedule screen.

Cons

For individual user to fine tune their own schedule, it would be nice to offer another level of zoom on the schedule screen that can display a weekly view with hours. This would make it a lot easier to schedule tasks for specific tasks.

### "Great Service - Would highly recommend "

February 18, 2021

5.0

Does what it is meant to do, organises my day every day.

Pros

I rely solely on this software. As soon as I log on, this is the first thing I check to see what i am working on for the day. It makes it very simple to see what i am working on, as well as my team mates. Before asking for a holiday or help on a project, I look at my team mates schedule, before asking for either.

Cons

I don't like how I can't mark things as complete or edit it if I am not an administrator.

### "Serves our complex scheduling needs well"

January 16, 2019

5.0

Using Float has reduced the amount of time spent in scheduling meetings. It also allows us to collaborate with regard to resource allocation across remote teams, and aids in communication to assigned team members.

Pros

Visualisation of team member allocation across multiple projects. At a glance its easy to see who is allocated to what, and how many hours per day. Non-working days such as leave an public holidays are also handled well.

Cons

A lot of the great features can be hard to find at first. But I suppose this helps keep the UI for common tasks free of clutter.

### "Float for team shcedules"

August 2, 2019

4.0

I find it useful for knowing when my scheduled breaks are and for seeing others schedules.

Pros

The fact that it is web accessible makes this a good program for monitoring schedules, especially if you work in multiple locations or spend time out of the office.

Cons

My only issue with Float is that I find navigating the schedule (forward and back from the current week) to be awkward and a bit slow on a cell phone. I seem to be unable to scroll normally from right to left and instead have to use two small buttons to navigate left and right in the schedule.

### "Float your boat"

February 13, 2020

5.0

Pros

A week-at-a-glance view has been proven as a way of improving individual productivity, time management, and performance -- this is why so many electronic planners and hard-copy planners are organized this way. Having a team view the week at a glance also confers similar benefits, as well as the accurate resourcing of projects, work activities, and the time of those people performing the work.

Cons

E-mail notifications could be a touch faster.

### "Great for bird's eye view of project portfolio"

January 20, 2019

4.0

Float allows me to view all of my team members and what they are working on in a visual way (helps for spotting where we have spare capacity or an over-allocated team member) and keep track of a fast-moving portfolio of projects where multiple team members work on the same client on multiple projects/tasks. Prior to Float I was using Excel which allowed me to capture a lot of detail, but it was hard to quickly and easily see projects by client and by team member.

Pros

Really like how easy it is to get started and the ability to copy projects once they are set up to other teammates. Also really love that you can use custom colors for each client (I use their exact logo colors for to visually tell them apart.)

Cons

The notes field needs to accept more characters, and to retain history (I use notes to update the status, so it would be helpful to have a running record of status updates.)

My experience so far has been very good. I find it easy to use and manage time and projects.

Pros

Key features I find most impactful are the ability to set up different projects and people and the ease of moving tasks within the schedule.
