In general happy
What do you like best about the product?

What do you dislike about the product?
I can't figure out how to add national holidays for an organisation. It is not convenient to do it separately for each person.

Better planning people's occupancy. Having someone 100% occupied, while another one - 60% is a great overview how to improve the work for each person.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try - having 15 min of tutorial is more than enough using the software. It is intuitive, incredibly fast for a gantt chart with many users and good-looking.

Great UI and UX. Color schemes are pleasing. The functionality works how you would expect with a little bit more. It's just smart.

The comfortable row heights are a little too big in my opinion but easy adjustment. Horizontal scrolling can be a little counterintuitive.

Letting my managers and PMs know what my intended days off are. I think it makes it easier to plot and plan for teams and individuals.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Stop using Google Docs and spreadsheets and use Float!

What do you dislike about the product?
There are no downsides of the product features.
The product can be enhanced, we found missing features that can be very helpful:
- non-billable resources when some portion of resource availability isn't billed to a customer;
- vacations, sick leaves approval workflows will allow to use it by all staff, not only management;
- removed resources limited visibility, e.g. some resources can be moved to another project but are visible in the current project's resource group, but can be hidden or collapsed;
There are workarounds that are used to resolve the absent features.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Two problems that are solved with the Float:
- resource reports preparation that came 'out of the box' and easy to use
- resource availability forecast, including tracking of country holidays, vacations, sick leaves, other occasions that affect resource availability

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it as a good tool for Project and Resource managers mainly. It can be a single point of truth regarding resource pool availability and utilization, eliminate the need to maintain a number of tracking and reporting spreadsheets.
The reporting system can be used by accountants or billers to prepare invoices in case you use the T&M contracts.
