What do you like best about Float?

It is very customizable and works quite good for multiple teams working on multiple projects with the ability to assign project, tasks and notes to the allocations and people. With good scheduling and repeating tasks options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My manager cannot filter hours I logged using the Notes field. Also I wish there was an undo button when deleting/modifying logged hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Allows me to keep track of my tasks when working on projects. My team also uses float for KPIs on our organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Float?

I use float for knowing which sessions I will be attending and at what time, but I have clear visibility over the rest of my team, making it easy to connect with them, collaborate, and to avoid clashes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

I would prefer if there were more customisation options for the visual user interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

In my role I run training sessions for existing and new staff. My colleagues also do the same role, and float is our method of keeping track of where there are common free times for collaboration and knowing what sessoins we will run. Using float generally avoids the frustration of cluttered outlook calendars, while allowing coordinators to assign us tasks and modify them in the background.

What do you like best about Float?

I like the idea of being able to colour code tasks, assign tasks to an email and define time requirements as well as project details within a task. I also really enjoy the reporting side of things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

I would like it if Float offered the ability to change the title of some of the input box titles. For example, where it says "Project" I would like to be able to edit that to my own title. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It gives a good helicopter view for me and my team of the ongoing projects, up and coming projects as well as the capacity of each individual team member. Using the different colours also gives a good overview of the types of work that is going on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Float?

Scheduling is amazing and accessible, holiday requests are a perfect flow. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

- Placeholders should be free. It's challenging to plan the future of hiring and business development pipeline with high uncertainty. I need to put possible future employee but not paying because if I don't sell they are never going to be a real employee

- Reports should be easier, there are many options and you need to do so many trials to get what you need.

- When someone is manager in a project, they get access to modify their hours in everyone projects, you should change that it drives to errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have a very flexible company, it helps me to know what are everyone doing, and see if there are people free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Float?

Float makes project and time management more simple and straight forward compared to other time management solutions out there. I can easily log my hours spent on a project down to the very last task seamlessly. Also great breakdown of project budgets and tasks assigned to colleagues.

I also like the color codes for different projects. Almost feels like I'm creating an art project :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At the first use of Float... it can seem overwhelming with all the tabs and icons, but it takes a few uses to get the hang of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Time management was previously very tedious in excel sheets. I nregards to project management, managing budgets and tracking tasks assigned to colleagues are made more interactive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Float?

We rely on Float daily as an essential tool for resource management. While a few members of the operations team handle updates, over 100 employees use it regularly to view their schedules.

Float stands out for its simplicity and clarity. From adding new employees and jobs to managing resource, holidays, and absences, everything is straightforward and efficient.

The backend functionality is equally valuable, providing insightful data on resource utilisation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

Occasionally, it can be a bit glitchy, but their team is quick to resolve any issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Having a central hub for all resource that the entire team can easily understand and regularly update benefits everyone—from operations and account managers to designers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
