A great app, but can be better
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Float brings information in my Google Calendar, because it makes timekeeping within it much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that I can't personalize the information that Float pulls of my Google calendar. For example, I would like to customize a date for him to start pulling everything and organizing it correctly, but I can't. And I would like you to filter with more word filters
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Float solves my timekeeping in an easier and more dynamic way. And that helps me a lot to make the process easier. But I think there's still a lot to improve. Another thing that I think could improve is the fact that, if I update an event on my Google Calendar, all past notes on Float will be impacted, and I think this shouldn't happen, from the moment I entered the time there .
Simple and easy to use but needs some small improvements
What do you like best about the product?
Float has an intuitive interface, it's easy to navigate and learn how to use. It integrates with jira, which makes it much faster to input the tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't a field that displays the total scheduled time for each day, you need to go to reports or to select the days in order to have this information displayer above, wich adds some work when planning the schedule according to the total amount of hours that you're planing to spend per day.
Also sometimes users may happen to forget to log times and there is nothing in the interface that prevents this mistake.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It creates more visibility to managers to understand how much time the tasks are demanding across all projects, summed to other internal tasks and even time-offs.
Fundamentally easy-to-use and report off of
What do you like best about the product?
Float stands out from the crowd of resource management tools with its strong UI/UX and their very helpful, responsive customer support. Just this alone made onboarding and implementing the system very quick for our team. The system is easy to navigate and our users find it easy to complete all of the work that they need to at once. I personally find it intuitive to add hours to someone's schedule and add/edit nested details/projects without having to navigate to another screen. While evaluating our options, I felt that managing our projections for company resources was much easier than some of the other competitors, especially when it came to the tag and department management systems. The cherry on top was the ability to sync users and projects from Jira which sped up our onboarding process.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of the functionality is fairly shallow. There aren't a lot of fields or the option to add custom fields to all users and departments. Tag management would be much improved if there was functionality around hierarchy added. In a set of allocated hours that has multiple users attached it, I should be able to unlink the users whilst retaining the same allocation for each user. Right now, unlinking the users from the allocation removes hours for them without any option to keep. Access management and visibility should have more granular options including: restricting projects from being seen on any view or search by non-assigned users, the ability to remove archived projects and other records from auto-fills, and the ability to restrict any manager to only seeing their resources.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to project where resources may land in the future is incredibly important for any company with multiple active and pending projects. Float is helping us effectively plan by providing an easy way for all managers to detail their expectations, view others' expectations, and plan together on where resources will ultimately be spending their time.

Very beautiful and responsive interface
What do you like best about the product?
Wonderful and intuitive design. Great aesthetics that lets you see large amounts of metrics in a visually appealing manner. Has never experienced any service disruptions. Is quickly able to respond to changes from large team making several updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the metrics on resource planning could be better explained. The difference in interpretation of metrics from API vs the web dashboard is difficult to understand. Support does not do a good job of explaining them.
The development team does not customize the product much according to company requirements.

It is a great program for wrangling the complex schedule at my workplace
What do you like best about the product?
I like how folks are able to adjust their own meetings and tag others in joint projects and it adds it to their schedule. Very easy to use and learn for all tech skill levels.
What do you dislike about the product?
The worst part is very minor. I don't like that the filter is saved. I have it set to only my local office but defaults to the entire company which is annoying since my name is near the the end of alphabet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is solving the issues of being handed more work when im already swamps. I enjoy planning my schedule a month in advance and this helps.
User-friendly interface that is easy to learn
What do you like best about the product?
Float simplifies scheduling not just for myself but for my peers. Due to the nature of our teamwork-focused projects, it helps to be able to easily filter and see who else is on the same project. I check the app daily as my schedule can change last minute. Having the notifications help to notify when something new comes up.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can take a while to load, and I wish the mobile app was more user friendly. Additionally, I hope that Float can integrate a notification/stage-clearing of sorts for people to be notified when their people want to add time off over a schedule rather than it completely disappearing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Float aids with visualizing the different types of work that our industry has.
