"Have introduced Float in my new job to manage resource planning better"
What do you like best about Float?

Ease of use, the clear UI with drag & drop, easy tool to plan out resources and see them at a glance, it gives our developers a better idea f what they're supposed to work on and when, very good customer support with short response times, it's very easily set up, it has become an essential tool that we use daily in my team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

I'd like to be able to create a new task in a project as I add the time to someone's schedule. I don't love the extra step of going to the project first to add it there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Float makes it easy to keep track of tasks and team allocation through multiple projects"
What do you like best about Float?

The tool is intuitive, easy to use and gives a good visual perception of daily activities.

It is easy to create and keep track of activities thorugh it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

When creating a task/event you have the option to choose how often the event repeats, but you can only choose weekly or higher. A option of "repeat daily" would be welcome.

Float lacks a way of sorting the tasks based on time of completion, making it hard to look into daily activities chronologicaly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Manageable and portative"
What do you like best about Float?

The ease to access the application on the go, with good phone integration.

Easily enough features for our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

Currently we having issues to connect float to our company mail, which I think is due to our IT security, so I do not think that is "floats" fault.

As I have spoken with the support team and they assisted me well it seems that our company has to do few changes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"User-friendly interface that is easy to learn"
What do you like best about Float?

Float simplifies scheduling not just for myself but for my peers. Due to the nature of our teamwork-focused projects, it helps to be able to easily filter and see who else is on the same project. I check the app daily as my schedule can change last minute. Having the notifications help to notify when something new comes up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

It can take a while to load, and I wish the mobile app was more user friendly. Additionally, I hope that Float can integrate a notification/stage-clearing of sorts for people to be notified when their people want to add time off over a schedule rather than it completely disappearing.

"Simple, effortless interface and usability"
What do you like best about Float?

Speed of use and being able to get an instand snapshot of what's going on. I'm on the receiving end of the scheduling, but as the agency's ECD I need to know what's going on in a heartbeat. Float gives me this visibility and allows me to get into things fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

Nothing yet. It's going well. I've heard good things from the team and I find it easy to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The organization greatly improves the visualization and adjustments we want to make, enabling the inclusion and exclusion of routines that we frequently change. It is a tool that has excellent support for companies. Quite useful due to the frequency with which we have to use it and the ease of access implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

What was somewhat disadvantageous was the platform integration process but nothing that prevented us from accessing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
