These limitations have absolutely killed our roll-out of Planner. We manually migrated from Trello. At the time none of these limitations were clear. Now we are stuck with an unusable product as we have already hit limits. Without the ability to move tasks between plans, we can't even put a workaround in place at the level of detail we are working to. Please Microsoft, please, please up these limits!

      We announced at Ignite that effective immediately (or very soon for some customers), we removed - for all intents and purposes - the limitations on task assignments. Will be posting a blog soon that reviews Ignite and roadmap announcements! All videos are currently on YouTube.

        Regardless the task status, the most tasks a user may have assigned to him/her, at a time, is 250 tasks.  QUESTION:  By what date (Month/Year) will Microsoft remove the Office365 Planner limitation that limits an individual user to having a maximum of 250 tasks assigned to him/her?
