    I would definitely recommend everyone to use Float, It's easy and friendly to use. Performance-wise as well it is great. Really helps in streamline and scheduling resources and their utilization. Its reporting feature is great, Shows all projects for a particular resource or all resources for a particular project. It's a go-to tool for management.

    Futuramo is best for when you're working alone on a project, or with a small team, given the glitches with the time tracker and the poor integration with Futuramo Tasks and Projects. Unless you're going to manually calculate the times spent on all tasks individually in order to know the total time spent on the project, I would not recommend using it on projects where you'd be billed per the time spent rather than a fixed amount.

    • The biggest pro of Futurama Time tracker is that it comes bundled with other tools. These are "Projects, Tasks, Virtual Tickets, Time Tracker, and Icons." This means I can track the time spent on each task within a project.
    • Time Tracker is easy to use, all you need to do is go to time tracker, enter the task you want to track, choose what project and clients it's under, and then click the play/start icon.
    • For projects that involve collaborating with others (either external freelancers I'm managing, or my staff) I can track the time spent on each task by each user. So I know how long each person spent on their task and how it related to the estimated time. This way I know if the project will take longer or shorter than estimated.

    Cons
    Pixel Paddock, LLC (Float)
    • More mobile friendly
    • Scrolling through x and y dimension is bit confusing
    • I have been using Float for a long time and no more cons I can think of.

    • I'ver been using Futuramo for almost 2 years, primarily because they reached out to me to be one of the first users/testers. I've also shared some glitches that could be improved but the timer glitch is still there. When I start the timer to track a project, instead of the timer to start counting, it remains at 00:00 which is worrying because it makes me feel like it's not actually tracking what I'm working on. I was once 18 mins unto a task and when I checked the tracker it said 00:16 I was so worried I ended the task. Interestingly when I ended the task, it showed the correct time which was 18 minutes. I'm happy the timer was working but I'm also frustrated and in near-panic.
    • Like TopTracker, I wish there was a way to take screenshots of what I'm doing, that way I can be sure that the rest of the team is actually working on the timed tasks.
    • In the Time Tracker section of Futuramo, where the tasks timed are listed, I wish it was possible to actually click on any of the tasks there to see things like mouse clicks and keyboard taps. Similar to how Hubstaff and Upwork tracker tracks "productivity" (I'm not sure what this is called).
    • If you track a task not originally in Futuramo Task but created in Time Tracker, connected to a project or client, when you go to Futuramo Task, it won't be listed there. And when you to go Futuramo Projects, you still wouldn't see it there. I would like to go to Futuramo Project and see all the tasks there, both those timed and those yet to start.

    Float is great for Project management and resource management. It is helping us work more effectively. It's a great planning tool. Smooth to understand and start working on. It has great integration with Slack, Google calendar. It has made Assigning and scheduling very easy for future projects with time management. Reporting is very easy and data extraction is too. It is also good in monitoring weekly/monthly and quarterly allocation of resources

    Float helps in planning upcoming projects and helps in availability management for the resource to be able to assign. The creation of resources with roles helps in assigning and formulation a proper team for a project. It shows us the capacity and work hours of resources and helps us in leave management as well as scheduling time off. Teams utilization is been made very convenient by this tool.

    Hubstaff and TopTracker are still better at tracking tasks because of:
    1. Fewer glitches with the timer.
    2. Desktop app.
    3. Both take screenshots at random to which can be reassuring to clients.
    4. Both track keyboard taps and mouse clicks and show how "active" I am. This coupled with the screenshots can be reassuring for my clients.

    • Increased productivity: Futuramo Time Tracker makes it easy to know how long it'll actually take me to complete a task, and when put together, how long it'd take me to complete a project.
    • Track Billables: While calculating all the time spent on each task manually was exhausting, once that was done, I knew how long it took me and my team to complete a project and was able to bill my client for just that time.
