Hi Dave Heller!
I'm just planning to start using Planner and Teams in my team of training developers.
This team has lots of interaction during development. Some people on the team are shared resources for all different concurrent projects happening. This makes me look for a tool that will allow a group to collaborate effectively on a number of projects.
Now I see that Teams allows me to create a number of Planners for a single Group. Is this the path I should follow? I just can't seem to get what force within Microsoft has more power and where the product integration will lean towards.
In current state I can't see all plans in the Planner Hub when they are created in Teams. This makes me somewhat out of control. If this will be added down the road - I'd jump in.
What would be the best future-proof setup for a team with multiple concurrent projects, shared document space, number of chats happening and people playing a role in several projects at a time?
Multiple Groups - one for every project
or
Teams with a single Team and a number of Plans
In either case I believe there is no single pane of glass to see all plans from several Groups or all plans from several Teams plans at the moment.
