With the way Planner is working, I'd rather use NOTEPAD!

      Hey Brian-Smith 

       

      1. Anyone (and I mean anyone that has access to Planner) can:
        1. Modify /Rename / Delete the Bucket and the ENTIRE contents.  Wow!  Who fell asleep on this job?  Admin can't stop this from happening!
        2. A team member can modify / rename / delete a task.  What's the point of assigning a task when a member of that task can delete it????
        3. A team member can modify / rename / delete the description.  What's the point of having a description when when a member can delete / modify and even change it????

      Those alone would make Planner a COMPLETE USELESS product.  It should be PULLED out of production and put in an ALPHA THOUGHT process instead of production!  Ridiculous!  Whoever was in charge of this being released to the public should literally be fired.

        Thanks for the feedback Omar Ali .  If you want something that ties things down a lot more then take a look at Project Online.  Feel free to vote on some topics on UserVoice if you feel strongly about these items.  I'm sorry it doesn't fit your needs.

        Best regards,

        Brian
