Sub-departments let you create mini-teams within teams in ΢ĸ

Start nesting teams within teams by adding sub-departments. Sub-departments let you set up your team precisely how you want and provide greater flexibility over your org.

The manager role in ΢ĸ allows you to cherry-pick permissions based on your organization's hierarchy and structure and decide who and what each person can manage—assigning a new sub-department to a manager will give them the ability to:

  • Approve time off for their sub-department team members
  • Filter their Schedule view by sub-department
  • Schedule and reassign work for their sub-department team members

For example, you could create sub-departments for frontend, backend, and mobile engineering teams within the engineering department. This makes it easier for managers to oversee their team members and allocate resources.

Add more hierarchy to your ΢ĸ account with workspaces

Sub-departments are just the beginning of more hierarchical features coming soon to ΢ĸ!

We're also exploring adding a new workspaces feature to allow organizations to switch between/share resources across teams. If you're interested in getting an early look at the feature, please contact us at insights@float.com.

We're excited to share our latest UX wins with you! We're always working to improve ΢ĸ, and these updates should help take your team's productivity to the next level.

Task menu project field

Tasks without a project are like a bicycle without wheels—they won't take you anywhere! That's why we've moved the project field to the top of the task menu to make planning and assigning tasks easier.

Archive time off types

Has your team made updates to your PTO policies his year? Now you can without losing any historical data.

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

We want to give every team a chance to try time tracking with ΢ĸ—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 ΢ĸ account (up to 12 months).

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

(Pro) + - $1,896

(Starter) + (Business) - $2,880

- $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

January 25, 2023
January 25, 2023

We’ve introduced new colors and higher contrast text to make ΢ĸ 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 ΢ĸ are (at a minimum), with some contrast also meeting the 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 ΢ĸ.

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