Float Reviews & Product Details

Very nice and thought-through interface. Great functional. Allows tracking and managing work load and capacity of a team like my design unit. There is integration with Outlook calendar.

I wish there was a bucket view like: Backlog-inProgress-inReview-Done/Approved. Also, I think Float functions would benefit from having some project naming automation based on mask: Number_Client_ProjectName.

Before Float it was impossible to plan my team's time especially long-term. With Float I know who's doing what, blocked capacity for scheduled projects, current capacity when a new project comes in, milestones, deadlines etc at a glance.

Ease of access. User Friendly. Dynamic updates. Team/Org View helps a lot with reporting the capacity and utilization of the team members

Mobile app needs to be faster, and bug fixes, as sometimes it crashes or stops responding

It helps big teams to control demand management, and capacity planning

It's incredibly easy to pick up and start using, for both team members and managers.

I would love to see the software grow into a stage where it can manage more aspects of projects.

Float is how I see my daily schedule and know what projects I'm assigned to.

Float is one of the best tools in the market to handle project budgets and workforce. It also has a very intuitive UI.

Sometimes it is very slow for few minutes.

I use Float to schedule budgets and workforce, with Float I can have everything under control

It was so easy to implement and use. No more using Excel and entering in multiple cells all the time. Additionally, the people who wouldn't use Excel to see their schedule use Float! We also love that it tracks dollars and resources by project. It's giving us visibility in to our work we haven't had before. To see that you are on budget based on team hours is amazing. We also love that we can see how booked our team is at any given time. It helps us allocate resources and shift projects as needed when things get busy. The fact that so many people in our company immediately jumped on board says a lot about the software. We searched and tried a lot of different products before finding and implementing Float. We would highly recommended trying it for your team. It's really affordable and can be started up very quickly.

I wish the program could automatically build schedules using an end date like Microsoft Project but the information is really easy to enter into Float. We do wish Float would come out with a project management software that's as easy to use as their scheduling software!

Float is helping our company adjust pricing on projects. We're learning a lot about how much time is being spent on projects, something we haven't been able to easily track until now.

Integration with Asana Drop and Drag functionality Capacity plan reporting Simplicity of use eg: Filtering and search

I'd love it to automatically map the dates from Asana directly on the board so that you don't have to work with them dual screen. But its not a deal breaker.

Visibility and the ability to capacity plan across all of our Asana boards and workflows. Incredibly powerful for our business at the rate that we're scaling.

Simplicity of the UI. It handles the important thing which perfection. Also it's very easy for a beginner to get used to the UI of it,

At this point I dont dislike anything in particular and its been over a year.

In my company it helps manage everyone's working hours.

Organizing the project structure by using a hierarchy based on phases and tasks has created a consistent workflow between legacy projects documented in MS Projects and FLOAT

Time off management should offer the option of handling vacation flex and so on from the Person Card

Scheduling projects and monitoring logged time against completed efforts - has increased data collection efficiency

The main screen is dedicated to delivering the most important information. The filtering, sorting and view modes are natural and easy to use. We leverage external integrations with our HR systems to synchronize time off and availability, ensuring the Float information is always up to date. Both the Schedule and Project Plan view allow easy focus on possible issues and opportunities. The customization tagging combined with rich filtering really makes it accessible to all our team. Reporting is also nice with very flexible timeline options (I especially like the per month/per week/per day option in the bar chart capacity reports).

Truly, it is a great platform, nothing major is an issue. Some interesting enhancements could be adding the possibility to easily simulate scenarios when planning for long-term projects.

Float is allowing us to quickly assign and ensure all our projects are fully staffed with the required personnel at a glance. It also gives us valuable medium and long-term insight on capacity planning.

I love being able to rearrange my schedule with "drag & drop" when adjustments need to be made. It's simple & effective.

Overall Float is great. The "Project Plan" screen is sometimes a little hard to read. It'd be nice if some projects could be "collapsed" or there was an abbreviated summary first!

I do creative work and often have multiple overlapping projects to manage. Float helps me plan my workweek, and is so simple to make adjustments when needed (which is common with creative work). Thank you!
