With Microsoft Planner, you have a one-stop-shop for everything your team might need to organize projects. Create plans, break them up into subtasks, assign them, track progress, and resolve questions all in one place. The dashboard gives an overview of everything your team is working on and their progress, with each task taking up one column, and a chart at the top showing the number of tasks in progress, late, completed, or not started. It is best for small to medium-sized teams with a task of medium complexity. Great for Agile teams. It can connect to other Microsoft 365 tools–you can even implant your Planner calendar into Outlook so you can keep track of your personal + team schedules. 

Gain clarity on tasks - Deconstruct tasks into subtasks all in one bucket, assign subtasks to relevant people, and resolve questions, so that anyone who needs to know how that task is developing can see. 

Filter tasks - Only see the tasks you’re looking for, whether that be those before a certain due date, those including team member X, and more.
