Conversations in new planner - did anyone get it to work?
I switched to premium for the granularity of subtasks (dependencies), but it appears I have traded that functionality for the opportunity to chat with my team members about specific tasks through the comments feature (in the basic offering). I think Planner premium could do everything I need if there was a way to maintain a conversation about an assigned task.
I have the same problem. I requested that my department pay monthly for the premium planner, only to find out that it removes the calendar. One would think that upgrading your service would improve the usability, not cause problems. First time I have purchased an upgraded tool and lost the previous level features. This would be like purchasing a vehicle and adding a premium sound system only to find out they removed the radio/center media stack.
