In which Office 365 Plans is Planner available?
Stephan, that's what my support guy thought too at first, pointing to the same article, and he was especially hung up on E2 (which doesn't really exist as a plan as far as I can tell, except in one or two places in the admin center for what's otherwise labeled as non-profit E1: do regular E1 people see that too?), but then he checked and came back and said that E2 and E1 were the same and that we should qualify, but that he thinks not all have been provisioned yet (agreeing with an earlier post). Haven't heard back from him though.
Update: We've been on First Release all along.
Final word from support is that it'll happen when it happens, anytime between now and October.
Does anyone know if what was in the Preview version is purged, or does it carry over, particularly in the case of when the previous license has expired? It's a bit shocking that given the extremely long lead time on this that MS wasn't able to flip the switch before a given tenant's previous plan expired.
