Microsoft Planner
What is Planner?
Microsoft Planner helps keep track of your team’s progress. You can create new plans, assign tasks and share files with others. Track individual assignments or view the progress of larger projects.
Add your plan to Microsoft Teams for easy collaboration. You can create a new group with the same name as your plan or you can add the plan to an existing group.
Receive assignment notification or even work directly on your plan in Teams. Using a plan in a Teams channel can keep your team updated and focused on your To-Do list.
Use the Tasks app to see your tasks and shared plans. Shared plans include all of the plans that you have added to Teams channels.
