Float vs Scoro

Float

• Agencies and services firms scheduling people across client projects
• Resource managers who need capacity and utilization in one view
• Teams with many viewers, since people who are not scheduled join free as guests

Scoro

• Consultancies and agencies that quote, deliver and bill in one system
• Firms that want to start with a few apps and add more later
• Teams tracking margin, utilization and revenue per project

Float

• There is no free plan. After the 30-day trial a paid plan is needed, though Float says it keeps trial data for 6 months.
• Time tracking, project cost estimates, expenses, SSO and team-enforced 2FA all need the Pro plan.
• Starter keeps the activity feed for 7 days, includes 1 placeholder and limits saved filtered views to personal ones.
• The download page offers iOS and Android apps only; no desktop app is listed.

Scoro

• There is no free plan, and every combination requires at least 5 user seats.
• The per-user price rises with each app added, from $17 for two apps to $57 for the End-to-end combination, and some add-ons and integrations cost extra.
• Single sign-on and SCIM user provisioning are only on the Enterprise platform, not the Standard one.
• Free self-onboarding is offered only to teams of up to 15 people; larger teams are directed to onboarding packages run by Scoro's experts.

Float

Resource scheduling

People are scheduled onto projects in hours or percentages. Placeholders add planned hires, contractors or shared equipment without using a seat: 1 on Starter, 5 on Pro.

Capacity and time off

Custom workdays and hours, global holiday calendars, departments, roles, skills and tags feed each person's capacity. Time off management is on every plan.

Project planning and budgets

Projects have phases, milestones, tasks, templates and budget tracking on every plan. Project cost estimates and expenses are Pro features.

Time tracking

The Pro plan adds timesheets that are prefilled from the schedule or logged automatically, and time entries that can be locked.

Reporting and forecasting

Utilization trends, billable versus non-billable hours, budget burn and margin tracking are on every plan. Finance and people dashboards and estimates versus actuals need Pro.

Integrations and API

Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, Slack, Zapier and custom API integrations are included on every plan. A Float MCP connector for Claude is in beta.

Scoro
