Float, Resource Guru or Smartsheet? Pick Your Planning Layer
The right resource planner depends less on the feature list than on where you want work to live. Float forecasts capacity beside your task system, Resource Guru runs the booking desk, and Smartsheet can become the work system itself.
The Project Management Price Tag That Stops Growing
Most project tools charge more every time your team grows. Basecamp offers a company-wide ceiling, while Trello and Teamwork make different bets on simplicity, control and client work.
Workfront, Wrike or Smartsheet? Follow the Work

Four service platforms, four arguments about what support should actually feel like. One bets on tickets, one on the enterprise machine, one on the person, one on the account - and buyers are picking sides.

G2
G2 is the world's largest software marketplace and peer-review platform, where business buyers research, compare, and choose B2B software based on millions of verified user reviews. Founded in 2012 by a team of BigMachines alumni led by Godard Abel, G2 turned the messy, vendor-dominated software buying process into something closer to checking restaurant reviews before dinner. Today the platform hosts millions of reviews across thousands of categories, sells buyer-intent data and marketing services to software vendors, and after its 2026 acquisition of Capterra, Software Advice, and GetApp reaches more than 200 million annual software buyers.
