  • A great software application for managing my personal tasks.

    By Donald Tynes II (Pcmac user)

    I have used this software for about six months now. Although the application has collaboration functionality, for my single-member LLC, all that I need is to keep track of a set of tasks, describe them, estimate the time to complete them, create a Work Breakdown Structure (WBS), assign a date and time (with the help of Calendar) to complete each time, which shows on my schedule as 'Busy' - which is exactly what I want, then finally record the actual time the task took. There are a few features that I would like it to have, like automatic integration with my Calendar product on iOS. But, except for a few features that I would love it to have, the software application is a great solution for my task needs.
  • Can't believe I'm rating a Microsoft app 5 stars

    By rpee (Pcmac user)

    I really like this app. It's the right blend of simplicity and power. Feels a lot like how I tried to make Wunderlist work for business years ago but it never really did. This feels cleaner and less friction overall than Trello. Keep up the great work. I don't use Teams though. I'd love to get this hooked up to Slack. One thing I'd change: after clicking into a task from the 'My Tasks' section, the name of the Plan is in the upper left, next to the Bucket Name. Clicking the Plan name should take me to the Plan, not to change the bucket, like makes sense would happen when you click on the bucket name. I can't seem to get back to the Plan unless I go to the Planner Hub. Just a few extra clicks that mightn't be needed...
  • A great tool!

    By Most Unhappy User (Pcmac user)

    Through the years I have used many different pieces of software and tried to develop many different practices, to schedule my life both at work and at home. Planner is simple quick and efficient. I would like to see a little bit more customization allowed, so that it works a little bit more streamlined. There is a large crevasse between the app planner and the app project finding something close to the middle would be optimal for the users of the app. But I was trying to run with the premise do not let perfection get in the way of progress - CLewis
  • A few enhancements needed but mostly good

    By Rasuel (Pcmac user)

    The biggest problem is not being able to update multiple items together. I'd like to select all and apply the same value. Also, filter is an OR.. not an AND. Meaning, I can't filter by multiple buckets at the same time. It's only one or the other. Also, when in the desktop I can't export nor import. So it's alot of manual effort to set up. Also no ability to include dependencies Otherwise you can sort by different methods. The chart and visual aspects are useful. Assignment is cool too. I like the flags. Checklist is a nice feature to keep track of subtasks. With the buckets, I was able to build a Kanban board for a scrum project!! This also likes well to other areas of the app like SharePoint
