What differentiates Microsoft Planner from other similar products?
I honestly love love love this tool for assigning and managing tasks. This platform allows you to to send requests that include the deadline and details around what the task requested is. You can add in who the request is to, who it is coming from, details on the item, and what overall task it stems from, the overall deliverable or goal.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
I like that it can be integrated into MS Teams, which makes it all the more easier for teams/groups to share inputs about what's needed to be done. Also, the color-coded labels makes it easier to categorically filter tasks and plans.
What do you dislike most about this product?
S Planner doesn't have as much functionality as other dedicated tools like Monday, Asana, AirTable, etc. Although there are updates to MS Planner, there aren't as many innovative or groundbreaking changes like the main Office 365 products like Word, Excel, and Powerpoint

For effective task and projects planning and management,I strongly recommend the use of this tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
