Planner vs To-Do
This thread has been viewed over 27,000 times.
What isn't clear from the announcement is if you'll eventually be able to view Planner tasks in To-Do and Outlook. We'd love to use Planner for team tasks, but its impossible when the tasks just sit in their own little silo and you can't see them alongside all the other stuff you've got to do.
If the roadmap means its possible to view all your tasks in one place (regardless of it they are 'personal', 'work', 'team' etc) then To-Do will be brilliant.

I agree, having a consolidated platform where personal tasks can be managed is key to maximising personal productivity alongside team related tasks.
I agree the separation makes it too difficult to use. People are not willing to look in multiple locations. Planner and Teams work well, and Outlook and To-Do work well, but the integration between these pairs is lacking.
- From the look of this video it is coming soon
