Do I need a private group?
Hi All, my need:
I will be emailing out to people within and external to my organisation asking for a call to action, so I want to track who I have sent emails to, the take-up, or not, and the result of the take-up.
The obvious way to do this was Groups and planner, but I don't want any group interaction, I don't want the recipients to know of each other, I don't want any welcome emails. I just want to manage the campaign.
I have office 365 bus premium,
Have you done something similar? if so how?
All thoughts, observations and recommendations are gratefully received.

take a look at MS Forms, https://forms.office.com/

Yes, also Forms could be suitable.
For a comparison, have a look at https://practical365.com/collaboration/forms/creating-surveys-office-365/
- Is this a once-off, or will it be happening repeatedly?
You could always do a voting button in Outlook which will track who has voted and what their vote was, as well as who hasn't.
Otherwise - I would suggest manual tracking of the emails you've sent to everyone with a spreadsheet tracking what the result was.- Stuart EntwitleCopper Contributor
Thanks, Loryan, I think that is where I am at (tracking via spreadsheet).
Groups would be great if only I could control it not sending out a welcome email or any other emails for that matter.

Could a SharePoint survey do the trick?
Just an idea...
