What do you dislike about Float?

There were no a single thing which was drastically bad.

Except one thing: I would love to have there more access levels. My management is using it for managing an increasingly large group of people and they need them to be able to edit anyone's schedule in their Department. Currently there is only "Project Manager" or "Member" and neither one suits the needs perfectly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Float:

Do not hesitate to read guides as they will help you to grasp everything quickly and will benefit you in the long run.

Instruct the rest of the team well, and not just the administrators initially tasked with briefing in the work. This will assist everyone to make the best out of this software. Use the custom interface in order gain the best experience for your team and yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Float solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our "team" have more 100 people working on around 30 plus projects at a time. Many of these people work across multiple projects simultaneously and quick look and management tool is necessary for this. It's difficult to plan their capacity and delivery timescales in such an surroundings, and at the same time Float makes this about as easy to do and as transparent as it could be. A Big Gratitude to the whole team of Float! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
