an option to drag logged projects and times across sideway to different days would be great and time saving, or an option for a saved input to be selected if you repeat tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simply Perfect!"

5/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

As the title says, the best thing about Float is how easy it is to use.

We're a medium-sized design agency and we looked for ages for a solution to project management that didn't bog us down in admin and could be easily accessed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

It could be better at scheduling holidays, we use Timetastic for this and it would be great if the two could be integrated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Recommended Employee Scheduling Management Software"

5/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

It is very intuitive and allows me to see other employee's availability for optimised working experience. I do currently do not use any other tools for this. Compared to SAP, this is much more user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

I hated how initially I had to scour through the interface to find the search button only to find that it is buried under the Filter function. I would suggest that the search function is separated from the filter for easier and a more intuitive access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jess Thompson of Float.com

Thank you for your review! We love that Float helps keep your workload predictable so you can mentally prepare and be your most productive.

Thanks for the feedback about the search function, we'll pass that along.

"Simple to use scheduling system"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

Something I enjoy best about float is the ease with which you can change many people's schedules within the same view, as well as the ease with which you can add a new project or extend time on a current one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

Float's user interface appears to be outdated. The colour scheme may need an update, and the filter option can be a little unclear about what to pick and from where, but generally, it's nice and manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Float Review"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

I like how flexible it is. I can adjust the colors for everything. I love that i can drag events easily, and cut them up. I like that i can cusomize the order of events and coworkers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

I dont like that the members on my team cant see other peoples calendars. this would be helpful so they know who is doing what. I wish there was a 'save' buttong for when I adjust who is in one of my 'favorites'. i have to add a new title if i want to re-save Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your review! It's great to hear you're enjoying the flexibility and customization of arranging your team's schedule!

With regards to allowing team members' being able to view other people's schedules, this can be enabled in each person's access rights by an Admin. You can find more detail here: https://support.float.com/en/articles/5215287-access-rights. I hope this info helps!

"Perfect tool for planning and time management"

4/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

It gives me perfect insight in the tasks I have to do (planned by project managers). Also, as a Lead Designer, it gives me an overview of the tasks other designers are working on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

At our company, we work with Google for calendars, e-mail, and documents. The calendar synchronization works but is slow to show changes. This way I cannot rely on the tasks shown in my Google Calendar, and I have to log in to Float to show an up to date planning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Jess Thompson of Float.com

Thank you for your review! Great to hear that Float gives you the visibility across your team that you need in your role as a Lead Designer! Thanks for the feedback about the Google calendar integration, we'll pass that along to the team.

"Easy to use - see plan at a glance"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

Easy to use - intuitive workspace to get started; I can easily rearrange designers workloads and see where they are over loaded at a glance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

I'd like to be able to compress a bit more, or have an overview view; but saying that viewing by projects works well.

I'd like to have a sandbox so I can run scenarios on where to put people without affecting my overall plan Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Float.com:

I looked at a few resource planning apps, this was a good price and really easy to implement Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We use float to plan workloads for our designers - it works really well to get an overview of who is doing what, and allows the team to quickly see expectations Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent Scheduling Tool"

5/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

As a producer, the upside of Float is the ease of scheduling my team's many projects. Float's interface helps our team access and view each other's calendars so we know which resources are available. It's also a very nice interface that is pleasant to look at. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

The only thing I dislike about Float is when I try to drag projects and their timelines, the dates end up getting messed up. The drag feature skews the dates sometimes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thank you for your review, Kelly! Great to hear that Float has made your lives easier by being able to see who's working on what and when!

"Overall a very good tool"

4/5

What do you like best about Float.com?

Filtering and reporting - it is easy to get information about the time spent on a specific project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

When someone enters the name of a project to which he/she is not assigned (because, for example, the project manager forgot to add a given person) he/she does not see that the project exists. It should be possible for such people to ask to join the project team. This generates a lot of unnecessary communication and misunderstandings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Float.com:

If you are looking for a tool to easily measure time spent on projects with a decent reporting system - Float is a good choice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It allows us to measure the profitability of projects, so we know which projects are profitable and which are not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Thanks for your review, Marcin! Great to hear you're making the most out of reporting and drilling down with filters.
