# Resource Guru, Float, and Teamwork

> A practical comparison of Resource Guru, Float, and Teamwork for agencies and consultancies that need to assign scarce people across overlapping client engagements. The roundup separates scheduling from task management, compares each product's operating model, current entry pricing, capacity controls, and financial depth, then gives operations leaders a simple way to choose: Resource Guru for fast booking and clash prevention, Float for capacity and margin planning, or Teamwork for an integrated client-work system.

## Achievements

- Resource Guru combines real-time availability, clash management, tentative bookings, placeholders, leave management, and skill-based filtering in a focused scheduling product.
- Float connects live resource schedules with capacity, rate cards, project budgets, time tracking on higher plans, and project margin reporting.
- Teamwork connects short-term workload planning and longer-term scheduling with tasks, time, retainers, budgets, client access, and profitability workflows.
- All three products support planning people across multiple projects rather than limiting visibility to a single task list.
