What’s Good About Microsoft Planner So Far (and What’s Still Missing)
RobOK Thanks for your reply. It was really useful in getting to know this. Please find my replies below
* Integration with Outlook Tasks would be a significiant nice to have
MSFT has plans to offer this feature.

* I think when I add a task it sends an email to everyone, this may have been changed? I have no understaning of who gets emails or when, but feel like Planner generates excessive email notfications.
MSFT is working on this to provide controls for email notifications.

* List view of tasks (not everyone likes the Card motif)
* Multiple selection and update, or edit a list of tasks in place
* Flagging and possible alerting on overdue tasks
* email a task into a Plan (every Plan has an email address to receive tasks)
* Sorting and Filtering
* Integration with Outlook Tasks
If you are using Outlook client, you can try Apps4.Pro Planner Outlook add-in which will work for the above listed requirements.

Rob.
RobOK There are no updates on the features you have listed. The possible features we can expect as of now are
