Retain Cloud vs. Float.com

The Only Platform Built to Unify Resource Planning for Professional Services — Now with AI and Enhanced Skills Taxonomy Established in 1992, Retain is the world’s first platform built to give professional services firms and complex, multi-entity organisations one place to plan, schedule, and forecast across every department. No more spreadsheets. No more disconnected tools. Just a single, intuitive system that brings clarity and control to resourcing. With AI-powered insights, a governed skills taxonomy, and behavioural profiling, Retain goes beyond availability.

Float.com is the #1 resource management software for delivery teams, designed to give Operations and Delivery leaders the full picture of who’s working on what, whether delivery’s on track, and how to take on what’s next. Unlike disconnected spreadsheets or complex PSAs, Float offers a single, clear source of truth to plan, resource, and report on client work. It doesn’t replace existing CRMs, spreadsheets, HRIS, project and finance tools: it works alongside them to give you the full picture of delivery, so every decision gets made with complete visibility.
