Smartsheet or Microsoft Planner
Hello, I'm shopping around for a new project management tool that integrates the best with MS Teams. My decision has come down to Smartsheet or Microsoft Planner. Which tool do you prefer and why...
- I was always drawn to SmartSheet and we did some pilot tests. We ultimately did not choose it because it was outside the MSFT ecosystem. Maybe that has changed, I have not looked how or if it integrates with Teams. If you are not using Teams with many people already, you might not see the benefits. Planner was a great first effort a few years ago, but then stalled. Many are waiting here for the new Tasks overhall of Planner. If it works as good as it looks, that would be a good choice for you. You should look at Notion. It is an all in one tool where SmartSheet is more like a spreadsheet on super steroids.
