What differentiates Microsoft Planner from other similar products?

Microsoft Planner is included with the standard licences of Microsoft 365, this make it very convinient to have track your teams projects, to delegate activities and document every step. Also you can create multiple plans if you have different teams and no everybody need to have access to all the activities. Planner also can be integrated with Power BI to much better graffic and overview of all the activities for each group.

Is very easy to use, you don't need to have an extra training to use it, you can access the planner anywhere and every change someone of the team makes in the planner is notified to all the members in order to be updated.

Nothing to dislike, but I would like to include extra comments in the notes, like a note over a note.
