Fast and easy time planning for teams
What do you like best about the product?
It's quick and easy to plan out each member of the team's schedules and keep track of how things are progressing. Also, should business or client needs change, it's super simple to move things around.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sadly, there doesn't appear to be any way to have dependent tasks like you would in more of a traditional float chart style setup which would be handy for some projects where tasks must be completed in a series so you don't have to move multiple tasks around one by one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Scheduling has been made quicker and easier so there's been a great timesaving, also the team all have full visibility of what everyone across the agency are doing and what's upcoming.

the colour coding by project and how that relates to that channel I'm working on
What do you dislike about the product?
the fact that there is a character limit in the comments section. Limited detail added to briefs.
It would be more helpful if there was a hierarchy system so I know which are the most urgent jobs.

Simple software doing it's job well
What do you like best about the product?
The single mindedness of the software. No unnecessary features which over complicate it. Just schedule management, pure and simple. Helps share with everyone what they are scheduled to do and also share that with the wider team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Tricky to do smaller chunks of time and setting up new clients or pitch work was fiddly. Could be much more seamless.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ensuring everyone is clear on what they are doing now and in the near future. But also making accounts teams aware of workflow so that they do not sell time to the client which we do not have.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It does one job well. Don't expect any more as that's not the point.
Very flexible

The fact that i had to pay is completely understandable, but for a bigger team this also sums up, a bit too much for mee.

Overview in planning, keeping track of changing planning.
Intuitive dashboard yet not fully grown
What do you like best about the product?
Clean interface and handy search bar to select users. The Slack integration is also something that looks promising and I'll try soon.

The lack of an android application makes this an application primarily focused on iPhone users. This is a bit more troublesome in our company as there's a mixed device landscape.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Better then the alternatives used till date.

Some of it's functionalities are a little bit hard to find, for example the different view options.

Altogether Float is a very convenient Tool with good overviews and functionalities. In the company I'm working for, Float is used as a Human Ressource Management and Job Overview Tool.
Very good resource management software

Very user friendly, easy to migrate my team it using it, helpful when trying to juggle multiple resources, rolled-up data very informative for pipeline planning.

It is purely a resource management tool and not a complete end-to-end project management solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are now seeing a pipeline of resource needs across our business, we are able to dig into the detail by team or individual. We are able to improve our general utilisation across teams.

Compare this product with an end to end project management solution.
About float
What do you like best about the product?
Good overall view, it's meant to have an oversight of everyone's time schedule in the agency, and it works.
What do you dislike about the product?
The page doesn't always refresh by itself. So if someone is editing the schedules while you're looking at it, you risk consulting an obsolete version if you don't click refresh by yourself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our creatives had way too much work for different projects, we had no view on what they where asked to do during the day. So now we are having a meeting once a week to organize and prioritize things, and we're quickly aware if someone has an overload of work, so we can do something about it.
Extremely helpful software, has changed how we work
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to simply, and easily see what every single member of the team is allocated to throughout a large period of time. Giving the ability for that employee to see what they need to be focussing their attention on that day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the application be slow to respond, and it can be frustrating if you're trying to skip far ahead of time to complete some planning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We always struggled with members of the team understanding what they should be working on as we've grown. This has helped considerably by giving each member their own access to see their own responsibilities.
It's freed up time of some of the management completely, as it's done in one place and everyone has that for reference.
