> **Alessandro** | *28 August 2023* | Consumer Goods | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Float is a powerful tool that can help the managers to make sure the team is not overloaded (or underloaded :) ).At the same time we have a clear vision if we, as a team, we can take more projects to work on or we have to raise our hand because we are in difficult
> 
> **Cons**: Visually could be more appealing. User interface is easy but it could be more eye-catching for the creative team

-----

> **Verified Reviewer** | *28 August 2023* | Internet | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10

> 
> **Cons**: From our perspective there is likely nothin in particular to dislike.
> 
> We're using it for three years now and intend to continue doing so.

### "Production Management Software" — 3.0/5

> **Cagri** | *30 August 2023* | Design | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's web based and easy to use. You can track based on projects or people.
> 
> **Cons**: You cannot see the projection of the finance accurately as if team members forget to log their time. This is a big disadvantage and would be the reason why wouldn't recommend.

### "Accessible task management via Float" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *22 June 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The presentation of all the features makes use of the software easy for technical and non-technical users alike. That reduces time spent in training users.
> 
> **Cons**: I guess the need to log in is a very mild pain point, but a necessary one.

### "Good ressource management software" — 4.0/5

> **Pauline** | *21 June 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It's a good software for scheduling people's time on projects, seeing at a glance who is available and when,  and who is working on each project. We can easily categorise people into teams, roles etc and then do quick searches. It's also really easy for every employee to log their time spent on projects so that we know what to invoice to clients.
> 
> **Cons**: It's not great for managing the budget of a project: the reports are really limited so you have to do a csv export if you want to do in depth analysis.
