A great team management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Great tool for managing resources in a team. Allows you to quickly and easily see what other people are working on, filtering by teams, projects or specific team members. I'm not a project manager so probably don't use all of the features on offer e.g. reporting, but as a team member it's a useful way of being able to visualise my workload and see what's coming up, as well as being able to see other people's workload.
What do you dislike about the product?
Disappointed that the 'My Schedule' feature is no longer available as this was an easy way to view just my own schedule rather than the whole business and having to filter by my name.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides an overview of workload and resourcing capacity, helps to plan team member's time and schedule projects effectively, provides an overview of billable utilisation across the business.
Simple and effective
What do you like best about the product?
Float makes it simple for me to view all my team members' availability and check who is working on which projects from one location. The interface is intuitive and easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Integration with other systems could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Float keeps everyone on the same page when it comes to resource scheduling. With the ability to view all our team members' availability in one place at a glance, it helps avoid scheduling conflicts - and also helps project managers see where we have extra capacity.
Almost perfect
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to see my team's schedule at a glance is great. The ability to filter your view by employee or project is also good.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's still a bit janky (I know there was a big update over christmas but it's still a bit janky for me)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows employees to plan ahead with scheduled work.

Alex review
What do you like best about the product?
Simplicity. It was easy to understand at first.

Great new features and improvements
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the new features, being able to mark a task as tentative or complete. The scrolling has drastically improved, and the speed of editing, adding, deleting a task is much much faster, instantaneous! I like the ability to verify one staff schedule, or one project or even a department.
What do you dislike about the product?
I just wish if the other features had good tips or videos on how to use them. The reporting tools are not great, we are having issues exporting a report to excel. This is an area that needs improvement. Another improvement would be when we filter for a project, to be easily able to see the date. Currently we have to scroll right or left to get to the date it is scheduled for a user. If there is a report that lists the users and the dates they are scheduled, that would be great.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we needed to schedule various projects across various departments, some are small projects that span few hours and some span a few weeks. Some are for a few staff and some involve various staff at various departments. With float we can easily do this, using even 0.25 fraction of an hour to schedule. It also handles weekends and holidays great. We are able to add vacations easily now. We like the color coding to distinguish the tasks or projects or holidays. this has helped us have a better view of all projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
definitely try it
Great for small teams

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great for managing time and using it for production or if you have multiple jobs coming in.
Always do the tutorials so you can keep your clients and jobs organized and optimise all the features.
Definitely create teams and use the roles resource as much as you can. This helps with organising teams and allocating jobs to the best people. Especially if you have a large studio that you are trying to manage.
We cast our float schedule to screens in our studio so that the whole team can see what everyone is working on. Very useful.
