What is Microsoft Planner?
Microsoft Planner is part of the Microsoft 365 (formerly called Office 365) suite of products. Planner provides a simple, yet very effective way to manage teamwork and tasks.
Planner allows you to create project plans, organise and assign tasks to members, track progress using visual dashboards and allows the whole team to stay up to date. Planner integrates seamlessly with other Microsoft 365 applications including Microsoft Teams.
Planner is often compared to other platforms such as Slack or Trello. If you already have Microsoft 365, then you already have Planner and there are no additional fees.
