Float>>Great Scheduling Tool

The visibility and ease of my team's schedule is superior. I am able to look at a schedule across all team members, and reassign as necessary to help team members support our customer's timeline expectations.

There's not much I didn't like. The tools is very easy to use, very friendly with comparing scheduling resources.

Scheduling my staff, and filling open time slots with existing projects has been very helpful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a shot. It is a very, very useful tool. If you are in charge of a team running multiple projects, it is a tool that provides GREAT visibility. I've not seen a better tool in the industry.
Ease to use and manage
What do you like best about the product?
I like its dashboard the most. Can see daily progress which projects are assigned to which resources and vice-versa.
As a user, I can see all the projects/tasks on daily basis and if priority changes then we can change our schedule accordingly.

What do you dislike about the product?
As of now, nothing to dislike:)
Just an improvement to suggest: it should send a reminder email daily to the users if they have no work assigned yet. If they are already working on anything then they can update their work schedule for a day.
Currently it send weekly schedule email on Monday which is good.

What do you dislike about the product?
I haven't found anything yet. A great tool so far.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use this tool in order to find which resources are available to assign to a project that I am about to sell.
When I have a meeting with a prospect, I use this tool to find out when I can offer them the solution they are looking for, and how long it will take for its completion.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool. Easy to use, easy to see clearly the projects and the resources assigned and available.
Good tool for what it's meant to be
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use and intuitive. For our purposes, it served exactly as what we needed it to be. We have had a lot more people properly informed on the workloads of their teams, allowing everyone to be able to better manage their resources/projects. The ability to work on this simultaneously with others, real-time, has also been extremely helpful, as we often have to just go in, make a quick update, and keep going on other tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
For what this tool is intended to be, it's really good. I think a little bit more information in one view would be good. The resource view (with the task assignment, etc.) would be good to give a little bit more information (maybe under the name on the left?). Otherwise, really, no complaints.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Resource Scheduling in a simple way, where other teams can easily gain needed insight into their own and other teams workload.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just give it a try. It's a very simple trial process and well worth it, if you just want to bring some simplicity to your resourcing.
Managers love it!
What do you like best about the product?
The managers use float to quickly understand what tasks the analysts have on their plate. If you're in an industry like mine, goals and priorities can shift at the drop of a hat. Float provides a great solution to getting all hands on deck without completely disrupting normal flow of work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some improvements could be made to inputting calendar data. The site lacks intuitive controls which could bring it on par with a modern cell phone app, or if it has them it doesn't do a great job of explaining the hotkeys.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is great for my managers to use. They look at it once a week to assess workloads for the week, and during emergencies to pull hands on deck
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Float provides an approach to quickly assess an entire company's workflow. This provides managers with an excellent tool to receive a potential emergency and attack it with the entire resources of the company, if need be. On a more ordinary basis, Float simply gives our managers a tool to view what the analysts are doing, while also serving its purpose as a public calendar.
Simpleness
What do you like best about the product?
The quickness to create task, assign time and define meetings
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of a dashboard and a monthly view

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Float helps address how many hours we need to put towards a project. This way, in the future when we are doing similar projects, we know how many hours we need to allocate/bill to the client.
