📈
Operations directors
You're reviewing resource allocations across client folders, but your team schedules only update when someone manually checks file statuses, so the utilisation counts you're planning against are always a few hours behind — with this integration, every new file lands in your tracking workflow instantly and your resource data stays current.
🚨
Project leads
You need to assign tasks the moment client assets arrive, but you find out about new uploads too late in the day to adjust team workloads — this integration means every Dropbox file upload immediately triggers the right task in Float so your team can start working without delay.
🤝
Account managers
You answer to clients who want immediate proof of project progress, but gathering files and updating schedules manually causes frustrating reporting delays — automating both apps means client deliverables trigger scheduling updates instantly and status reviews always reflect actual progress.
Studio managers
The volume of incoming project files is too high for anyone to keep storage folders and resource schedules aligned by hand — connecting these apps means every document upload flows straight into your capacity planner without manual transcription errors.
📋
Creative designers
You own the execution phase and depend on upstream file handoffs to begin billable work, but missing notifications leave you waiting blindly — with this integration, incoming files automatically create your scheduled tasks the second they are uploaded.
🗂️
Operations analysts
You need a reliable audit history linking client deliverables to logged team hours, but manual logging leaves persistent gaps in your records — this integration means every file activity and time log connects cleanly into a unified project history.
