Float Cash Flow
Bewertungen über Float Cash Flow

Great tool for simple cash flow management, and even better to get rid of manual Excel tracking!
Kommentare: Better cash flow overview, minimizes the need for Excel.
Vorteile:
Float easily integrates with Xero, allows you to easily configure which banks get synced for display purposes, and provides excellent insight into the sources of cash and also where cash is being spent. The invoices due and bills to pay reports are an easy way to access overdue bills and invoices without clicking through the accounting system. This is ideal for anyone who wants to get an idea of their cash flow history and projections.
Nachteile:
The product would be infinitely better if it supported multi-currency accounts, especially with more businesses holding more than 1 currency. Currently, details on cash is based on GL accounts. It might be way more usable if it gave us the option to view this from a customer/vendor name perspective, since we plan our cash flow on that basis, rather than by the GL account. The concept with this program is so excellent, and I am holding out on new features being released that totally eliminate the need for other products (such as Excel) for tracking and projecting cash flow. If Float can make that leap, it'll easily be the #1 cash flow app.

Crucial cash flow forecasting
Kommentare: I love using Float and everyone at Float is super helpful and friendly. I recommend this app everytime someone requests a cash flow as it's by far the easiest system to use and efficiently procude a cash flow forecast under pressure.
Vorteile:
Float is so easy to use for us, but also for our client. It helps our clients keep on track of their cash flow forecasting easier than before as it's so easy to understand whilst being very granular.
Nachteile:
If it could go beyond and produce projected profit and loss and balance sheet.
In Betracht gezogene Alternativen:
Float is brilliant... but could be better
Kommentare: Float has made the management of cashflow significantly easier and smoother than a spreadsheet!
Vorteile:
I love how easily Float links in with the other software I use, it also makes looking at different scenarios with comparisons easy.
Nachteile:
I think there are some more indepth functions that could be introduced that allow the user to have more control over how the information is displayed. Such as being able to see purchase orders, Being able to sort the 'Daily Breakdown' into categories. Also, it would be really helpful to have a function that shows your current balance less bills that are due, the current display shows the balance at the start of the day with bills that have been paid as still showing due.
Great cash flow forecasting tool!
Kommentare: Having an online c/f which links to Xero has enabled me to have c/f conversations real-time with clients and run multiple scenarios. It has eliminated the need for excel s/s which in turn has made my time more efficient. It has increased client engagement and provided me with more time for data analysis rather than s/s checking and data entry.
Vorteile:
Option of manual link-up to Xero so forecast can reflect Xero updates immediately. Ability to run multiple scenarios so clients can see the impact of making different business choices on the cashflow.
Nachteile:
It would be useful to be able do s/s upload of scenario budgets - can currently only do for the main forecast I think.

Great software, very easy to set up & use, excellent support - could add a couple of features
Vorteile:
Super-easy to set up and sync to Xero, and to import or directly input budgets. Easy & really helpful basis to review and amend bill/invoice dates for cashflows. Scenario planning and comparisons very helpful, and the output from those in charts etc great for presentation. Also allows you move & group cash in/out categories
Nachteile:
Other than charts, outputs are limited to CSV files so not that easy/quick to manipulate offline, and have to do all your own formulas & formatting, etc. I understand they’re working on Excel downloads - soon I hope!

Great and easy cash flow tool
Kommentare: This tool has helped us to keep on track of our cash flow and took good decisions for the coming months.
Vorteile:
I really like integration between Float and Xero accounting tool, updates are reflected immediately. It is easy to use and understand.
Nachteile:
Even when you can have different scenarios you just are able to compare against the last month, last 3 months and last 6 months, it would be better if you can select a custom view.

HI Benites, thank you for taking the time to leave a review of Float. We're delighted to hear Float is helping you keep track of your cash flow and make decisions for your business.

Easy way to track workload
Kommentare: Used a trial version for a month to see which task management software would work best for our small marketing team. While Float was easy (and even kinda fun) to implement, its functionality was too limited to continue use. I think it would be most useful in a situation where you have to focus on managing others and gauging the workload and hours spent on each client or project.
Vorteile:
Super easy to use and figure out. Took almost no time at all to start implementing it in the workplace. It also makes it really easy to manage others - you can pass tasks from one person to the other, postpone them easily, and see at a glance whether someone is overbooked.
Nachteile:
The capabilities are a little limited. While it can help you track workflow and task progression, it doesn't grant you a lot of flexibility in storing info about clients, setting due dates, etc.

Float
Kommentare: Float provides crystal clear visibility on our cashflow. Something we had always struggled with in the past.
Vorteile:
Ease of use, clarity of information. Focus.
Nachteile:
Nothing in particular.

Analyzing my business via Float kept us alive
Kommentare: I run a small business that does large projects. Cash flow and budgeting is paramount to success. Before I found float I was running my business like most folks. Looking backwards to go forward. I was paying myself and employees unsustainable money, not timing expenditures correctly that were needed to grow but could wait. I am still in business and making healthier decisions based on the future numbers because of the insights Float gives me.
Vorteile:
The ease of integration with Xero is simple and over the past couple years the software has become easier to configure and setup. Jump in and go!
Nachteile:
There is always room for improvement, and the support staff listen. Currently there is nothing that "must" be done besides never stopping the innovation.

my experience with float has been little but quite pleasant, since it allows to take control of the
Vorteile:
what I like the most is its integration with quickbooks and how easy it is to see the arrears with payments to suppliers as well as customer charges, it makes us see that attack immediately and also allows us to see the details of the transactions when we click on a transaction in the cash flow
Nachteile:
what I like the least is what it takes updating by giving it the refresh button, I think it's a slow nose if it is for the data handled but I would like it to be faster
First time using Cash Flow Forecasting
Kommentare: I have never used this type of tool and I am finding it very helpful, the link with Quick Book is very good and it can be updated whenever you need to. With float downloading data directly from Quick Book that as also helped me to find mistakes which have been made in my accounts We have now spent a number of hours just updating our records in Quick Book which makes that set of records even better. This updated information is then uploaded back into float. I did have a demo version of two weeks but due to the virus this as been extended. I really feel that two weeks to have demo for this system is two short it needs to be at least 4 weeks, then you will start to see the benefits of using the system. I will not be going back to the old ways
Vorteile:
The integration with Quick Books on line is very useful
Nachteile:
I find the system to be very helpful in presenting the information you need but as yet I have not been able to understand the reports which it is generating. If you wish to print and send cash flow information to someone else you can but you can not have your company logo shown on the report but by default you can have the Float logo shown! The promo information says you can have this up and running within the day, which maybe you can but I don't think that I would want to reply on its data. It takes time to check the data is correct and even the if the correct information is recorded within Quick Books in the correct place. I have never used anything like this before and I found it hard work, the videos they have do show you how to do things but when you don't know what you need to do or what you need to know it take a little time to fully understand what and how to do it. The videos on you tube are helpful but when you are trying to understand what and how to do something I found the speed and the single tone of the lady talking was just way to fast and boring for a new starter to understand. When you understand a little more its still boring but you can understand better what she is now saying. In this time of covid 19 I feel the cash flow display is way to long its showing 20 months and I only want it to show 6, maybe it does it but I can find how to shorten it. At this time I have given up on the reporting section maybe I will come back to it later.

Big time and money saver - Daily cashflow particularly useful
Kommentare: We use Float every day and is the best Cash Flow software we tried when evaluating - it gets slow but regular updates and the support team are relatively responsive. It's not cheap but we feel the ROI is completely worth it.
Vorteile:
Works great for short to medium term cashflow management and the integration with both Xero and FreeAgent is good. Easy to use and provides us with very intelligent data.
Nachteile:
Takes a bit of management and doesn't always do everything you want - not so useful for long term cashflow projections but has become an invaluable tool for us. Small issues.

Excellent tools for forecasting
Kommentare: We have for sure a forecast accurate
Vorteile:
Easy to use, also gives you the chance to create scenarios and most important can predict the cash movement. You can even add companies
Nachteile:
Its not multilanguage and multicurrency, you can add companies but cant be useful if having companies in different countries
Float cash flow is the easiest system one can use
Kommentare: Float cash flow is easy to use and understand and has made planning for our cashflow easy so I can recommend it to everyone.
Vorteile:
Float cash flow is easy to use and understand as it isn't complex hence making planning for cashflow easier and the customer service is highly responsive
Nachteile:
Other then being somehow expensive it is cheaper then doing calculations manually interms of time and accuracy
Simple software with amazing features
Vorteile:
I mainly use Float for its forecasting or “what if” scenarios feature. Float is one of the software that offers this feature. It is a feature that most f of our clients looks forward to. Float can also integrate well with QuickBook and Xero, another accounting software my team and I use. The software together is seamless.
Nachteile:
The inability to use more than one type of currency is a difficulty most of the times. But it is all tolerable, given the feature of the software.
Why wouldn't you?
Kommentare: I've loved it since I first got involved, over 3 years ago. I can't imagine life without it!
Vorteile:
The ability to be Agile with my financial modelling, to allow me to make tactical decisions, without violating strategic objectives.
Nachteile:
If I had to say, it would be price. The tool is probably of most use to SME's and the entry price point should be more like £20 / month
easy to forecast based on your real data in Xero, scenarios allow testing of different events
Kommentare: able to see cashflow, which helps with investments and dividends
Vorteile:
The sync with Xero means I don't need to worry about losing transactions, and can quickly compare forecast with actuals. The scenarios tool enables me to examine whatif for any ledger/ sales or expense. The weekly email tells you how much cash you have in the business too.
Nachteile:
It's a little fun to setup, but you only have to do that once. Tweeking the budget is easy. Perhaps an app.

Game Changing Cash Flow Forecasting Software
Kommentare: This has been a game changer in our practice, we can give daily, cash flow reporting updates to our clients during this Covid 19 Crisis.
Vorteile:
I like how Float integrates seamlessly with Xero Accounting Software. It was relatively easy to set up for each client compared to other cash flow software apps on the market.
Nachteile:
I dont have any dislikes at the moment with the software
A really effective solution to assist businesses manage cashflow
Kommentare: Overall, I think Float is an excellent tool for cashflow forecasting and scenario planning. It is easy to use and understand and the support available from the team at Float is excellent.
Vorteile:
Float is easy to use and not overly complex making it easy for clients to understand. The integrations with accounting software such as Xero ensures it is kept up to date and makes cashflow planning a relatively quick and a regular task - which is key to managing finances. The ability to forecast easily for different scenarios is a very useful feature that allows a business to easily see the impact of making changes.
Nachteile:
It would be useful to have a multi currency feature
Excellent Software
Kommentare: As an SME it has allowed us to get on top of our cashflow and is an invaluable tool.
Vorteile:
It is very easy to use and integrates very well with Xero.
Nachteile:
It would be good to allow: - Scenario layers to be used as a base layer for a second scenario that is a variation of the first scenario. - PDF exports from the cash flow and daily breakdown pages that retain the page format.
'Super Easy'
Kommentare: Overall, it great, would recommend widely to use this program.
Vorteile:
It saves time. As compare to forcasting with spreadsheets like old methods, float cash flow is very easy and time saver. it is an easy way to track cash flow. that's the software what i was looking for.
Nachteile:
So far my experience with this program have been great, no negative things have seen.

Excellent Cash Forecasting Tool
Kommentare: Very good. The interface is generally easy to understand. The cash flow reports display is awesome
Vorteile:
The integration directly with Xero. This allows us to see our cash flow forecasting move as soon as an invoice or bill is entered
Nachteile:
Its a bit expensive but cheaper than the time needed to calculate manually. Adding new budget items is a little confusing

Simple and Task-Specific
Vorteile:
Float focuses more on budget management and financial reporting. Our team uses it specifically for that. Because it is non-complex, it does not experience much lag time. It works fast and efficiently. Saves our team a lot of time rather than manually calculating budgets for supplies or manually creating financial reports. It is simple and helpful.
Nachteile:
Supports one type of currency only. Although multi-currency is rarely done in our company, there are still exchanges that are multi-currency.
Cheaper less powerful tool but gets the job done
Kommentare: Not for a more advanced complex company planning but for smaller businesses this can be a valuable tool to understand current and future cash flow.
Vorteile:
Integrates well with Xero, our accounting software. You can create budgets and scenarios for different accounts from your GL. Very useful in that capacity but beyond that there is not much to the tool. Navigating around is not bad.
Nachteile:
Historical graphs show actuals, not a great way to see variance. And forecast planning based on numbers not per headcount or any other fancier features. But for the price point this is a straightforward great tool.
This is one of the most useful tools we have
Kommentare: As the owner of a small business, having a 24/7 eye on our cash flow is THE most important aspect of running the business. It allows me to make decisions and also with the scenarios feature being able to model various scenarios and the impact on cash flow is incredibly powerful.
Vorteile:
Once everything is synced up with your accounting software, Float gives a really quick and easy cash flow forecast when we need it. It's the kind of service I've wished existed for many years now.
Nachteile:
I've found it a little confusing getting to grips with budgets vs actual forecasts... some aspects of the interface could be a little clearer. It's also a little frustrating being limited on editing the expense categories
