Easy and intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
Very easy to use. I actually use it as a timesheet more than a planner. The interface is so intuitive and flexible that it works for both!
What do you dislike about the product?
The archive feature is confusing. Archived data sometimes turns up in reports and sometimes not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy for my staff to use. With previous software, they complained that it took longer to log the task than to actually do it!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't let people set up their own tasks. Do it yourself or they will set up a million tasks and you won't be able to do any analysis.
Float user review
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the simplistic design of the software and how user friendly it is. The schedule can be organized based upon user preference and referenced at a quick glance or used for more in depth searches of projects or team members schedules.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I don't like about this software at the moment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing the schedules of many workers all in one place. Team members are able to review their own schedules and work assignments as well as those of coworkers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The software is quite simplistic for end users.
Great tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Time management, ease of access and flexible
What do you dislike about the product?
user control, adding a template and adding hours
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Clear vision on weekly to-dos
Float is so easy!
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to move jobs around - we do that a lot in the production team so it's great that it's so user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd really like a copy and paste function where you can copy a job on one day and press a button and it appears on another day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Knowing where the team is and what capacity everyone has means we can work together and support each other when others are light in capacity.
Pinpoint scheduling and project management efficiently
What do you like best about the product?
So many great things about Float. Bringing people into project scheduling easily, adding tasks and clients effortlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its daunting at first, but there is a quick virtual tour that should make it fairly easy to navigate. Five minutes and I was already scheduling tasks and projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping tasks and projects on track and together with one tool. Fast, uncomplicated and easy.
Flexible Scheduler
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to be able to see multiple schedules in a single view.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more "style" options and ability to see schedules in different ways.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Viewing and checking schedules for multiple individuals.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
As with any product, test it to make sure it will provide the features and functions that you need.
Multi disciplinary studio management top line
What do you like best about the product?
The simple usability of the software. How quick it is to add jobs, extend and move jobs around to different people. Flexible scrolling through the weeks. So easy to set someone up and get started with very minimal training. Report system very useful for monthly reports. For top line project management this is the perfect tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search bar sometimes doesnt work or show particular jobs on occasion. Search seems to only work within the month you are viewing, rather then showing a job from a previous month. This is intermittent and sometimes works to find what you are looking for when refreshed. Still need to test this after the software update to see if it has been resolved.
Doesn't refresh for designers, so we have updated and moved jobs around and they aren't aware as their float has remained the same, unless they manually refresh the window.
Would be great to see more in depth project management potential, such as uploading briefs, designs and signing them off all on this software.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently managing a team of 9 designers in a multi disciplinary team with 30+ different jobs daily. Tool has worked perfectly well for top line management of workflow and constant changing priorities. Visually easy to understand. Since the recent update the software has performed so much better then expected and has made a massive difference to usability. Reporting monthly on resource was never in place before this tool so this allows us to be transparent.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For very easy to use workflow management that everyone can get on board with and understand (especially coming from paper based or Excel system before) this is a great first step into digital project management for design. You can straight away see resource, book out weeks in advance and set deadlines. Plus the designers can mark on their jobs whether it was completed so PM's know straight away.
Veratile and easy to use project/people management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Float is intuitive to use. I really like the layout, clear and with lots of colour options for different staff and projects. Staff (and admin access levels) can be added, revised and removed easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately, you don't seem to be able to move a batch of tasks similaneously. so if project is delayed, every task for every project member has to be moved individually (which can run into 100's).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multi-year, multi-project management visualisation and planning. do i have enough staff in place, with the right skills, are there any pinch-points likely to cause delays (I was looking up to 4 years ahead)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the free trial period, test you requirements, sometimes you aren't sure what you need until you can do it.
Great Everyday Scheduling App
What do you like best about the product?
Float is very clearly laid out with plenty of white space that allows the user easily read their upcoming tasks or review past tasks. The option to change colour, client and project name per activity makes it especially easy to follow and plan within the app. I have never had any glitches with the app and it's always very quick to load.
What do you dislike about the product?
When switching the calendar views from months to weeks or days I wish the text for each activity automatically increased in size as it is quite small to read. This is a small drawback in the whole scheme of things however.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Never missing a task and holds me accountable for getting work done!
Simple to use + Great Value
What do you like best about the product?
The calendar layout and color coordination options make scheduling quick, easy, and intuitive!
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish the calendar blocks could be visually shortened past the 2hr length as in a previous version of Float. I get annoyed when a 15-minute block looks the same as a 2hr block.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Float makes it easy to have a highly flexible schedule, that is readable with a quick glance.
