The NEW Planner in Microsoft 365 Coming in 2024

[@natalieb4928]

I just wished the due dates for the tasks in planner showed up on the MS Teams calendar. It’d be nice to see my personal tasks in conjunction with all of my other events, or meetings.

[@michaeledwards2419]

Yeah that’s a spot on explanation. Trying to convince my org that we need to maximise these tools. So as I gradually phase this in hopefully once it all merges then it will be even better for colleagues. 👍

[@bitokay147]

same ! good luck to you. Hoping my org has an open mind that we need keep a digital sound ways of working and stay up to date

[@aussiegruber86]

Planner better have a search bar added, all I want is to be able to search for something 😢.

That's what the filter is for, isn't it enough?

[@TheYooToob2000]

I love the idea of bringing these things together. I don’t love hearing the words “basic” and “premium” though.

[@user-fb3iy1wh9v]

If I get it correctly, everything people were asking for (timeline, view and subtasks) is going to be charged.

[@mazdnd]

All I want is Microsoft to understand that it’s common to have several accounts.
I’m involved inn 4 companies, and I’m unable to see all my tasks/todos across them.
It’s driving me insane!

[@noreensingh1427]

Thank you, your video is the 1st video to actully explain it clearly.

[@JustBuildingThings]

This is heavily needed. I gave Microsoft a chance after being a Mac user for many years and bought an Office license just to manage my daily tasks and projects more easily. I was hoping to replace Trello with Planner and have the tasks synced to the Outlook client for daily tracking of the tasks from Planner. But gosh...what a mess Microsoft has built. 4 apps for tasks in: Planner, Outlook, Todo app and Teams, and they don't really sync well together. Just a mess...
You describe this dilemma very well. Hope Microsoft sees your video.

[@MiguelSeabraMelo]

They need to allow Planner boards private to (private or shared) Team channels.

[@alexandervalladares2501]

I can’t wait for it … this an amazing news!!!

[@janewhite5]

Thank you for the information! It's true, sometimes was confusing the alternatives and what was each of them for

[@astrokier]

Wow, looks exactly like Asana

[@user-bq6jl8wj9i]

Microsoft is killing it's competition with apps that are far from being the best -but they are
pre-installed and hard to remove

[@bearded365guy]

I agree. Their pricing is so good for a great package of products

[@kelemvor3333]

Currently planner is only available with a business subscription. Todo is the only thing available for a personal or family subscription. If they're all being combined, does that mean I'll be able to use a planner within my family or personal subscription?
Also, there's no way to make a personal plan in planner. When I make a new plan I have to link it to a team or a group. Todo is the only thing I can use if I want to track my own tasks at work. Will this new program allow me to make a planner plan that's just for me so I can create buckets to keep things organized? To do is just far too simplistic.

[@bearded365guy]

Not sure when it comes to Family/Personal subscriptions

[@paulevans2246]

Great vid. Thanks. Only just found your channel. Love it. I work for an org' which uses MS 365 and all the apps that come with it. I'd assumed i could generate a single list of tasks for a user. For example, if i am assigned tasks/ actions from MS Project web, planner, outlook etc. they could automaticall be pulled into one view e.g. 2 "to do". Is this possible currently or is this what the new offering you have outlined in your vid provides? Cheers

[@michaeledwards2419]

They will currently appear in that persons ToDo under assigned. 👍

[@chloemag7144]

Thank you for this information. Do you know if there will be any way to share a planner board with other Teams in a read only style permission? I am struggling right now with a project where I would like others to be able to see my planner board, but only see it. Not have any kind of edit capabilities. Any ideas?

[@user-rx8ry7cj8y]

Is timeline the same thing as Gantt chart?

[@daelra]

Will they be bringing in proper backup and be able to copy/move plans between Teams? Stuck with loads of active planners in otherwise dead Teams simply because you can't migrate them without losing some (often essential) information. This is one of my main gripes doing anything in Teams. Once an app is tied to a Team, it's most likely stuck there.

[@bearded365guy]

Not sure at the moment

[@juniper_jon]

Do you know if this will sync up with Dynamics Tasks and Checklists?

[@bearded365guy]

Not sure Jon

[@luisrodrigues6099]

Do we know if they're fixing Planner to allow comments to be edited/deleted by the user or admin?
That's a HUGE failing currently .. comments can't be deleted even if they are made in error or including information that should NOT be there. (We are in health care and can't allow people to use planner because of the risk that they might include a client name in comments, for example, when that can't be fixed!)

[@aussiegruber86]

Even a search bar is needed lol

[@lucasshipsides1510]

fantastic. still presumably missing: the ability to tag people...

No…. It will have that! Premium version

Hi, thank your for the valuable information.
I have Plan 3 on work - I use Project on Desktop for micro and resource planning as well as the online app for roadmaps.
Do you know if I can still use the roadmap feature in 2024 with Plan 3?

Planner = crap
To-Do = crap
Teams' tasks = crap
Outlook tasks = nice but primitive
Project on web = Emazing but minimalistic
New Planner > 80% will be a hybrid crap.
Just look at new Outlook view.. > Extreme crap compared to existing outlook and even legacy.
Microsoft trying to become Google productivity minimalistic featureless crap suites.
Hope I'm, super wrong.

[@bearded365guy]

I hope you are too

[@denvermartin9656]

Yep It's a complete unorganized mess at the current state. We have MS 365 at my company but I use a 3rd party app, TickTick, because its way easier to use for task management then any of their poorly implemented half baked task management apps.
