"Float: Versatile Project Management System"

"Float for Post Studio Scheduling"
What do you like best about Float?

Float is fast, fluid, and certainly an upgrade over spreadsheets and many other scheduling software options. For basic functions, it's fairly intuitive and presents data visually in a clear, digestible way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

We found Float to be lacking features that we and many others consider "industry standard." For example, a native "right of first refusal" system. Float's flexibility allowed us to create workarounds, but they're finnicky and tedious to implement. Customer Support seemed receptive to feedback and feature suggestions, but we've yet to see the most important ones implemetned. Though I should point out that they did implement another feature I suggested. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
