"More than just scheduling"
What do you like best about Float?

Float allows quick capturing of data for easy analysis no matter how long the time has past (year or years). Interesting features such ask trying to type a question mark for a shortcut makes scheduling more seamless and interesting. It also allows visibility for the people who needs it and create a more collaborative space. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float?

I would say that the only downside of using Float is that there's just that few more steps needed before a schedule can be placed. The need to create project before scheduling makes it more time consuming than it needs to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
