Using Float

  • August 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
That it is helpful for a large group or organization to see schedules of all in the group. I also liked that you can move things around fairly easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding projects and tasks initially was cumbersome. It isn't very intuitive, and requires a little learning curve to get that set up correctly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Still new to it, so haven't seen huge benefits or problems solved to date.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Read up and learn, read through help and tutorials

Intuitive and Easy for Everyone

  • August 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
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.
What do you dislike about the product?
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!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
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.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's so easy to implement that trying it out is definitely worth it.

Very intuitive and easy to use

  • August 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
This software is very intuitive and easy to use, allowing for very little time in getting used to the system. The interface looks great and it's very easy to see what other team members are doing using colour coding for projects
What do you dislike about the product?
The hours per day is 8 hours, when our company works 8.25, and the time allocation for projects goes up in 0.5 hour intervals, a smaller 0.25 hour interval would also be useful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is great for coordinating a large team group working on multiple projects. Very easy to see what each member is working on and when, allowing for greater coordination of group work

Float Makes Things Easier

  • August 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the visual aspect of Float, it is easy to understand at a glance and easy to plan. Employees enjoy using it which means they are more inclined to update their schedules, which is important for accurate planning.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more access levels. I am managing an increasingly large group of people and I need them to be able to edit anyone's schedule in their Department. Currently there is only "Project Manager" or "Member" and neither one suits my needs perfectly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have been able to quickly and accurately measure bandwidth and plan accordingly. This has allowed me to project headcount needs as well as give better completion projections to stakeholders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have to manage the time of large groups of people, and know at a glance what they are doing, Float is the right software for you. Reporting on bandwidth use may be a little basic for some users, but if you dig into the features and enter accurate data, you will have something meaningful to show at the end of the quarter or year.

Best resource management tool

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It’s simple, straight to the point, does what it is meant to do. Provides us with great visibility on available resources, utilization, and budget. Also breaks those down to be viewed by resource or by project. The reports generated are spot on! The team working on FLOAT is very responsive and supportive.
What do you dislike about the product?
On the iPhone mobile app there are still a few limitations when compared to the desktop online version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Utilization and scheduling is perfect now!
