"Easy to Switch Between Projects and People on the Report Screen"
What do you like best about Float.com?

I like that I can move in and out of different projectes or people fairly quickly on the Report screen. I am a people manager as well as an individual contributor, so I have to balance views of multiple schedules and it is very easy for me to move around to get to what I need quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

I do not understand the Schedule page at all. The team member that is the "owner" of Float is able to look at it and know exactly what is going on, but the screen is overwhelming and I cannot make sense of it. I also really struggle when logging time, if I accidently bump my mouse or move in an incorrect way, it will log all of the time for that day even though it is not accurate. I wish there was a way to undo that when it happens. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Scheduling, Real-Time Profitability Insights, and Fantastic Support"
What do you like best about Float.com?

I like Float for its intuitiveness and how easy it is to use. It’s implementation is smooth; it's straightforward to add my schedule in the time-blocking section and quickly get a clear, visual view of what I have on for the day. It’s also simple to check what everyone else is working on throughout the day. It integrates well with our profitability program, which lets us see in real time how profitable certain projects are compared to others. I use it every day along with the rest of my team, and if any issues come up, customer support is fantastic at making sure they’re resolved promptly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

Float’s least helpful feature is probably that, once items are synced from my calendar, they can’t be moved around within the schedule. Sometimes I want to place a timed meeting between two other untimed tasks to block out that time, but I can’t reposition the meeting if it’s stuck at the bottom of the day. Aside from that limitation, Float has been fantastic for my everyday use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Tool for Managing Resources Efficiently"
What do you like best about Float.com?

I’ve been using Float for a couple of months since we switched from Timely, and it’s been a noticeable upgrade. The user experience feels intuitive, so it’s easy to navigate and manage time efficiently. One of my favorite features is being able to schedule time and view the entire team’s timesheets in one place. That setup makes tracking simpler and gives better visibility into team workloads, which helps us stay organized and keep on top of our tasks. There is a bit of a learning curve at the beginning, but once you get the hang of it, Float becomes a very effective tool for resource management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

While Float is a great tool overall, there are a few areas I find challenging. To start, the initial setup and learning how to use all the features can feel a bit overwhelming, especially if you’re new to this type of software, and it definitely takes some time to get comfortable with everything. In addition, the platform can sometimes feel a little slow when loading or updating, which is frustrating when you’re trying to move quickly. Lastly, I wish the reporting options were more detailed, since that would make it easier to generate more specific insights around time tracking and overall project progress.

"Effortless Project Planning and Collaboration with Powerful Reporting"
What do you like best about Float.com?

I love this platform for its capability to plan and schedule the timeline of project. This platform improves the efficiency and allows teams to better collaborate to complete the project within the time frame. The best part I like about this platform is reporting that allows better and informed decision making that is critical for the organization. This platform have a less complex user interface which is comfortable for users. Other than this the handling of project life cycle can be tracked and managed very efficiently with this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

I love most part about this platform but I wish that the android application was as efficient like the desktop version. I also feel that an user needs to spend a good amount of time on this platform to be very efficient in using this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Helps me plan patient follow ups and content work in one schedule"
What do you like best about Float.com?

I work as a Dietician & Nutritionist, manage a homeopathy clinic, and also create health education content. I tried Float.com to plan my clinic work and content work in one place. I created small projects for patient follow-ups and content planning, and blocked time for things like diet notes and patient guidance. This helped me see how my day is split between clinic work and content work.

The calendar view made it easy to place work into time blocks. When clinic timings changed, I could just drag the blocks and adjust the schedule instead of planning again from start. This is useful because clinic timings change often.

The first setup was simple and did not take much time. I could start using it without doing anything complicated and plan my week in a simple way.

I also liked keeping clinic work and content work in separate projects. It made my routine work easier to manage and did not feel heavy to use. So Overall, it helped me plan my work in a more organized way. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

One small thing I noticed is that when I was adding my first project and time blocks, I had to click around a bit to find the right options. It is not confusing, but the first setup takes a little time.

Apart from that, the planning view worked well for my clinic and content work, and I did not face any real problems in normal use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

One aspect I find less favorable about Float is that it can sometimes feel limited in customization options, especially when managing complex schedules or projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Smooth, Easy-to-Use UI That Makes Projects a Breeze"
What do you like best about Float.com?

We needed a scheduling software desperately and float was extremely easy to setup and onboard with everyone in the team. The UI is very easy to use and visually everything is very smooth. It also offers great insights as to how much time you spend on certain tasks, highlighting which areas need to be streamlined. We use float every day, week in week out so it's very useful to us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

Not as much a dislike but it would be great to have further depth to information you can associate with each project so we can use float for other purposes other than scheduling too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Effortless Scheduling and Team Coordination Made Simple"
What do you like best about Float.com?

It's simple to schedule and block out the day, and it's also easy to keep track of everyone's schedules and see what has been completed. We can plan out a week's worth of work, and everything is straightforward to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

I find the search functionality on the app quite frustrating. When I need to quickly look up a specific past issue and see who it was assigned to, there really isn’t an easy way to do it. The app also isn’t very beginner friendly. New users tend to have a lot of questions before they start feeling comfortable using it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Intuitive Resource Planning That Keeps Teams Aligned"
What do you like best about Float.com?

Float.com provides an intuitive and visual way to manage team capacity and resource planning. The timeline-based interface makes it easy to see availability, prevent over-allocation, and plan projects efficiently. It helps teams stay aligned and improves overall utilization without unnecessary complexity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

While Float.com is excellent for resource planning, it can feel limited for teams looking for advanced project management or detailed task-level tracking. Some reporting and customization options could also be more flexible for complex use cases. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Clear Team Schedule Visibility Makes Planning Easy"
What do you like best about Float.com?

It’s easy to visualize my colleagues’ schedules. As a team lead, being able to quickly see their daily or weekly availability clearly makes my job much easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Float.com?

There’s a lack of automation. I want to email my teammates to ask them to update and fill in their float schedules, but it would be much more helpful if an automated feature could handle this for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
