"Resource Managers Dream"

5/5

What do you like best about Float?

I love how easy the interface is to understand and play with, very easy to move resources around and see what is coming in the pipeline. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

I wish we could archieve people on projects easily. We have projects that spam over months at a time and resources can change week to week. When you try to sort by project a number of profiles that even briefly touched the project appear and cause clutter. The only way to clean it up is to removed them from the project which very tetious and deletes any history on the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A tool that could fit your business need"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Float?

Dependent on the workflow need, Float has great potential for resource allocation. It's GANTT chart visuals are great. Once the phases were discovered, it was easier to see project flow.

The customer support was strong. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

If you are heavily project based with short and quick turnarounds this is extremely administrative intensive. Therefore, my frequency of use has been limited.

This is an excellent project for consultancies that work on longer projects with resources...

It did take a while and still does for implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

When we bring potential problems to Float, they listen and try to help through additional training and support. At times, they take the suggestion/question and provide it to their development team. My assumption is that some of these developments come about when recurring problems within their customer base provide the updates that benefit us as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Float has changed the way I work for the better"

4/5

What do you like best about Float?

Float makes time and task management simple. It's intuitive and easy to use. The team scheduling percentages is super helpful at demonstrating who in the team may be overloaded or who might have capacity. It's helped us get a better grip of our billability and share workload around more appropriately. Now Float is the first thing I check when I get to the office in the morning. I don't know what we did without it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

I regularly have to re-set my password to access float. I'm not sure if this is a me problem or a more generalised issue. It would also be good if you could integrate Float into Teams Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A visually clear workflow"

4.5/5

Float visually organises the workflow in a way that's quick and easy to understand. The filters that help you compare different workflows are handy for overseeing the team's workload. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

What I dislike is less related to Float and more how the internal tasks are underdocumented on it for my role. No complaints about the platform itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"It has helped scheduling of field crews tremendously"

5/5

What do you like best about Float?

It allos me to categorize different types of jobs and allows my field crews to see where they are going days in advance instead of asking everyday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

It would be nice to be able to hide certain people from the dashboard. I really would just like to see my field crew chiefs on the schedule, but everyone can still see the schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
