### "Float On"

February 11, 2020

4.0

Great tool to keep track of resourcing and projects on all team members agenda.

Pros

ease of searching for projects and team members. setting up new projects is very intuitive with great tagging ability.

Cons

assigning time and dates could be a little easer for team members. i typically highlight the days then select hours worked and can adjust if it is going into the following week or not, but willhave to be adjusted weekly or daily on some projects.

### "Key resource management tool"

August 19, 2019

4.0

Very easy to use, great dashboards and continuous enhancements to the product.

Pros

Easy to navigate and setup. Integration with Outlook. Out of office functionality. Administration module to access invoices etc. Team setups

Cons

More fluent way of connecting to JIRA. Financial management and time tracking would be great.

Alternatives considered

### "Easy to use"

February 17, 2021

5.0

Pros

This is very easy to learn to use and easy to teach others to use. I have like that I get email updates with any changes in the schedule and updates about new features.

Cons

I haven't found anything significant that I don't like about the software. The only thing that I don't like is when the system automatically changes the end time when I change the start time. If I wanted the end time different then I would change it myself.

### "The best resource tracking tool we've found"

August 25, 2020

5.0

Pros

Float provides a seamless and super-responsive interface for us to manage our projects and our teams. Real-time collaboration, integration into the tools we use (Slack). In the 4 months we've been using it we've completely transformed the way we manage, schedule and track our projects. We love it.

Cons

The features that Float currently provide serve us really well.

### "Didn't Float My Boat"

February 11, 2019

3.0

Pros

I liked the ease at which I got started and we started tracking deadlines. The interface was mostly friendly and intuitive. We tried it out for a week or two and put it through a lot, and it was able to handle everything we needed.

Cons

The major thing we found lacking was the workflow aspect. Maybe Float is different now, but there was no way to mirror the functionality of JIRA. Not that this is a direct competitor but we found it wasn't the right fit for our team.

### "From heart to heart:))"

August 23, 2023

5.0

Really good.

Pros

It's easy to use and schedule future projects. There are some room for improvement, however, for the amount of usage for now - it's very convenient.

Cons

There is no sync in between the category and the color. For example, if I create a new project, I have to manually check project category color and input it myself.

### "A solid tool with solid functionality "

August 1, 2019

4.0

Pros

It's a nice visual software that encourages collaborative work.

Cons

Would be nice to integrate with a time-tracking software so not having to use two tools.

### "You float my boat"

March 30, 2020

4.0

I'm pretty much scheduling 9am-5pm as part of my job, so I needed something that was 'clean' and easy to use, as well as having the required functionality. I trialled a few other software products and found Float came out on top.

Pros

The user-friendliness. It doesn't try and be too over complicated.

Cons

only downside is that I'm unable to brand it up a bit with our company logo's/colours. Not a biggy though, more of a nice to have.

Reason for choosing Float

The user interface was a lot cleaner than alternative products and it was generally a lot more user friendly.

June 27, 2022

5.0

The interface is simple and intuitive.

Pros

It's really simple to check my schedule every day and add status like teleworking.

### "Helpful Resourcing Tool, Could Use More Functionality"

January 17, 2019

4.0

Out team is able to work collaboratively and effectively to solve resource issues using float in a digital design space.

Pros

Float is easy to use and can be picked up in minutes, allowing anyone to become quickly acquainted and start making collaborative resource decisions.

Cons

Float could do with some further integration of other common project management tools and features. It is good at what it does but I would like to see them produce a wider software suite which includes other resource management tools such as time logging.

### "Very effective project management software. "

June 30, 2022

5.0

Pros

It makes it very easy to keep track of the many projects I'm working on as well as upcoming work.

When searching projects it can become a bit clutter with people who are no longer on the project.

Thanks for your review, Hannah! Great to hear that Float makes it easy to keep track of your projects and work you've got coming up. A quick tip to reduce clutter -- you can archive people or projects to remove them from the schedule without deleting any historical data. Hope that helps!

### "Useful and easy to use"

February 28, 2021

4.0

Individual project planning improved thanks to Float.

Pros

The interface is clear and pleasant. I like the ability to track the tasks that are assigned to me and at the same time have an overview of all the projects assigned to each resource. I find the log function very useful to record daily the actual tasks and duration.

Cons

It would be useful to have the ability to manage the projects according to the teams and track projects status.

### "Quick and Easy to set up and use"

January 16, 2019

4.0

We use Float to keep track of project resources and forecast upcoming requirements. It does a great job, and the support we get from the company whenever there's an issue or query is fantastic.

Pros

Float's interface is quick to use and straightforward to learn, so I can update and amend smoothly. Recent functionality updates to add pending projects has been really helpful for me.

Cons

I'd like a more powerful and granular reporting tool--what's here works well, but if I need to drill down in more detail it can become a bit of a manual process.

### "Float for project managers"

January 17, 2019

4.0

Very easy to learn how to use, way better than the excel sheets we used to use.

Pros

The visual elements, dragging blocks of time, ability to group developers on one screen. The size of the blocks equalling time (except for 1 & 2 hrs being the same size).

Cons

The right to left scrolling is quirky, sometimes it keeps going on it's own. If we have too many (20+) concurrent users it seems to slow down. 1 and 2 hour blocks are the same size.

August 14, 2020

5.0

Pros

It's very easy to use, and is very visual, so the team can easily see what work they have on and what needs to be completed and when.

It would be good if there was more space to add full briefs and notes to the projects.

### "Float Review"

June 14, 2022

5.0

We track time in our department on projects and tasks for costing, and it works very well for us.

Pros

I like the ease of use, lots of functionality, shortcuts, and intuitive design. Very easy to drag and drop projects and tasks to easily capture time, and easy to export data when needed. It has many different ways to view the same data which is very helpful.

Cons

Any cons that existed are quickly updated and improved upon, with new releases almost monthly.

### "Feedback on Float"

January 17, 2019

5.0

Ensuring that the internal resources are not burning out - through resource allocation of jobs.

Pros

The visibility it gives us on all the status and workflow of all our ongoing projects against the resources.

Cons

The software has a pretty high tendency of hanging. On multiple occasions, time blocks input would not be reflected resulting in missing work allocation.

Pros

Clean and easy design that allows me to quickly see what I’m booked on now and in the future. Also allows me to quickly see the same information for my colleagues.

Cons

No real issues with the software. Does exactly what it needs to do for me as a standard user just needing to see what I’m booked on.
