Float.com Reviews & Product Details

The app is very polished, and I often get the feeling apps are very bloated, but this app works very well. It is simple, and does not have too many features, but that's good compared to trying to do this in other software. We used to use outlook to manually signal when we would use PTO or be on projects, but now it's all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The schedule view is a bit cumbersome, since there is so much data represented. It can feel cumbersome scrolling through two dimensions of time and all of our users trying to find anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Really straightforward to use. I like using Float because it's an easy way of seeing what I have scheduled for the week and which projects I need to keep an eye on. It's also easy to see what my colleagues are working on and when people are on holiday. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's difficult to see which other people are working on the same project. It'd be good if you could click on a project and see which users are booked on the project and when. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Allows me to easily log my scheduled hours on a daily basis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was initially unsure about how to manage scheduling vs logging my hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how it keeps track of my hours for each project I am working on, and that I can list what tasks I completed for the project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish the project name showed up before the task name in my list so I can more readily see what each project is. I wish I could stay logged in and not have to log back in every time I go to the software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Colour coordination for different PMs, that way it's really easy to tell who's project work I've got coming up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That I can't have my own or particular colleagues that I'm working with that day / week automatically load up when I login. If I can do this somehow please let me know, I've looked for this capability but have been unable to find it! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Float has easy to use GUI. Buttons and tabs are organized and it is easy to find actions that you need. The shortcut keys are also helpful. I like that the calendar is displayed just like how my normal outlook and google calendar is laid out. i can easily track my meetings and project schedule. I also like the reports as it makes you see track the billable/non billable hours and if your project is hitting your targets or not. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes when you add a person or task, it does not capture the name and you have to edit and update it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How fluid the UI is. Extremely easy to add tasks in for team members or departments.

Colour coding is extremely helpful and easy to distinguish between clients or jobs. Adding time through the drag function is brilliant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Might need some more work on the Notes part, to add more detailed descriptions of tasks. This might be fine for others but we often need a bit more detail in our briefs, eg. imagery/references Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
