Do you currently use another tool for time tracking? Did you know that you can switch to Float time tracking for free for the duration of your existing contract?!

We want to give every team a chance to try time tracking with Float—even if you have an agreement with another provider. We'll apply a credit for the remainder of your contract with another time-tracking tool to your Float account (up to 12 months).

Take a look at how much you could save each year planning and tracking time for ten people in Float (prices as of December 2022):

Harvest (Pro) + Forecast - $1,896

Toggl Track (Starter) + Plan (Business) - $2,880

Float Resource planning + Time tracking - $1,200

AA compliant colors and contrast for improved accessibility on tasks and phases

AA compliant colors and contrast for improved accessibility on tasks and phases

We’ve introduced new colors and higher contrast text to make Float more accessible for all team members—especially those with vision or reading-related needs. Project, client, and task name text will appear darker/lighter on the schedule to make them easier to read on screen.

All background and text colors in Float are AA compliant (at a minimum), with some contrast also meeting the upcoming WCAG3.0 accessibility standards.

Any existing custom colors you’ve set for projects will stay the same (unless you manually change them), and text has been updated automatically to meet the new compliance standard. You can apply the new colors when you create or edit a project in Float.

This is the first of many usability updates coming to Float, including a new desktop dark mode! Stay tuned for more details soon.

Scheduling work and tracking time in separate apps can add up fast, and can create data sync issues. Starting the timer based on your scheduled tasks directly in Float means you don’t have to add project details for every task you time, and there’s no need to export task durations to timesheets. You can compare your estimates to actuals without worrying about any data being lost between tools.
