“Single-File Approach Limits Collaboration in Project Management”
Project management components are good, however it's just one file for one project, no collaboration

Microsoft Planner Likes & Dislikes
I like the ease of use and the ability to create your own buckets for your specific needs. The inclusion of subtasks and flags make it easy to add additional details that can be useful for going back and remembering the purpose of each task and the work that needs to be done for them.

I wish there was an easier way to export the tasks to a dashboarding software like Power BI for further insights into team projects.

Navigating Through MS Planner: Initial Obstacles and Needed Improvements
MS Planner is for me the go-to tool for simple task management. The readily available column options make it simple to set up. It gives an option to integrate tasks into calendar and to send alerts to assigned persons on their tasks. As for the downsides, during the initial implementation we wanted to review the pricing and get recommendations for licensing. The customer service person was difficult to reach and could not answer all our questions. We did figure out the answers on our own by trial and error. The integration of MS Planner and MS Project is confusing and I don't see a big difference between the MS Planner and MS Project Online anymore. I would be happy to see these two fully integrated. Despite the challenges, my overall impression with the product is still good, especially what comes to integration to different MS Office products. - Manager, Project Management10B+ USDInsurance (except health)Review Source
