Manage multiple plans effortlessly with the new Portfolios feature in Microsoft Planner
Thanks for the Blog post Meet_Sanghvi
Are you able to confirm if there are plans to make the 'Portfolio' features better in the future? Such as calculating an automatic status based on how each 'plan' tracking against the baselines set by each project, or potentially even adding in the ability to have cross-project dependencies?
I think like most people coming from Project desktop/Online, I'm a little weary of the large gap between Planner and Project, particularly with the fact that there has been a push from Microsoft to start transitioning to Planner(P4W),and at least for me https://support.microsoft.com/en-au/office/project-for-the-web-and-project-online-6569170c-5c8e-474e-a7f0-642872f62f8a like 'There is no date to limit the functionality of Project Online at this time, but we encourage customers to plan their transition as soon as possible.' make me worry, especially with such a large gap in functionality.
Thanks!
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and feedback—it’s incredibly valuable to us!
We recognize the importance of capabilities like automatic status calculations and cross-project dependencies and have added these to our product backlog. We’ll continue to look for opportunities to include such functionality in future product releases.

I agree with PewPewProject
This is just an exact copy of what was released in 2019 under Project for the web, Roadmap. That time it was an MVP, at most, and now you've just copied the functionality into the new planner. No improvements, no additional functionality. The direction is good and bringing it all together is great, but the pace of progress .... 🤕
