Efficient Resource Scheduling, Minor Task Management Improvements Needed
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate Float for allowing me to easily see what my colleagues are working on and communicate my availability at work, which significantly improves our team coordination. The resource scheduling feature is particularly crucial and beneficial, enabling me to see my team’s activities at a glance and efficiently plan resources accordingly. I find the setup process to be straightforward—using my company email for login and registration was seamless, which is certainly a plus. This efficiency in setup and login adds convenience, and the ability to manage and understand team tasks and schedules enhances our collaborative efforts.

I find task duplication across weeks challenging, which hampers the planning process. Additionally, the budgeting reports could be more intuitive, as the current layout makes them difficult to follow.

Float Keeps Our Agency Organised and Efficient with Seamless Scheduling
What do you like best about the product?
Float is an incredibly easy way to monitor the hours we are spending on each of our clients, as well as booking hours for upcoming projects and having a clear overview of availability / capacity. As an agency, we work on a cost-per-hour model and so having somewhere to book hours, organise capacity, and review client hours logged, is invaluable. We are also a growing agency, and Float really helps keep the workflow organised on a daily and monthly basis. We actually have a meeting every Monday, during which we go through Float and discuss each team member's priorities for the upcoming week, and are easily able to reassign hours to other team members with the simple drag and drop functionality. We are also able to use Float's API to automate the population of projects / hours per team member, making it much easier than other tools we have tried. I'm not quite sure how we managed before Float, now that it has been part of our daily lives for a number of years!
What do you dislike about the product?
There are three main things that I dislike about Float. Firstly, when reassigning hours to another member of the team, I will receive an error message approximately 5% of the time. It switches the hours back and you have to repeat the process. Secondly, when logging hours, there isn't a way to undo what you've logged. If you are still on the same screen, you can sometimes press ctrl+z to undo your previous action, but you can't have navigated away from the page you were on, else it can't be updated / un-logged. Finally, a lot of similar tools allow you to scroll left to right (and vice versa) by dragging the screen either left or right. Float doesn't have this functionality. Now this isn't a big issue, as there are other ways to scroll through the different weeks (the < > arrows at the top right of the page for example), but being able to drag your schedule left and right in order to view future / previous weeks would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Float allows me to see what projects each of the team is working on, so that I know who to brief on which project and when. It also enables me to ensure that client hours are being delivered (by reviewing logged hours). We also used to spend countless hours scheduling projects for each upcoming month - now, the process is almost completely automated thanks to the Float API. We just update an internal spreadsheet we have containing information on client hours, and a script we've created plus the API does the heavy lifting for us. Float is saving is SO much time and really helping ensure we are delivering value for our clients. It also means that we can spend the time we would otherwise have spent on scheduling, on our clients and developing our services.

Efficient Time Logging with Float
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate how easy and quick it was to set up Float. The ability to log my exact time on tasks is incredibly valuable, as it allows my employer to see my overtime and adjust my workload accordingly. I love that I can swap projects and tasks as I wish—this flexibility lets me manage my schedule effectively and helps teammates when they have too much on their plate. Using Float with Google Chrome on my Mac, I find it works perfectly, which adds to the seamless experience. Plus, considering it for future purchase, especially if I work remotely or start my own company, shows its potential for comprehensive time tracking and accurate task management.
What do you dislike about the product?
That they are not adjusting the time zones
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Float to log my work time accurately, enabling my employer to see my overtime and adjust my tasks. It also allows me to manage task loads effectively within the team.
User-Friendly, Visually Organized, But Needs Task Color Coding
What do you like best about the product?
I find Float incredibly user-friendly and visually appealing, which makes it stand out to me. The simplicity of the interface allows me to quickly understand and utilize its features without needing extensive knowledge or time investments. I really appreciate the visual layout where tasks for each day are proportionate to the number of hours available, and I love how quickly I can view my upcoming tasks for the day or week. The feature that flags when task hours exceed the typical workday is particularly helpful, providing immediate visual feedback with a red line to indicate I'm over my scheduled hours. Furthermore, the capability to spread tasks over multiple days is something I find highly useful, allowing me to distribute my workload evenly across a few days. The color-coded aspect of Float also adds to its charm, making task management not only efficient but also engaging.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the name of the task is cut off, requiring me to click on the box to view the full details. Additionally, all tasks are currently displayed in one color, and it would be advantageous to have them color-coded by project for better organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find Float allows me to log in quickly and see my tasks for the day or week, clearly showing available time slots. It helps manage task allocation efficiently and alerts me when I've exceeded daily work hours.
