in Planner: Export your entire plan to Excel for powerful analysis, sharing, and more on Mar 13 2023 07:23 AM
Please include also the comments with their dates. This is the only way you can keep track af the progress of an action. There is nowhere in Teams/Planner a way to search for the comment field. Omission in my opinion.

Another fundamental additional will be colour coding the tasks in the schedule view according to your tags and also showing a little icon for who was assigned. This helps a lot when scheduling tasks for team members.

in Microsoft Planner integration with Viva Goals is here! on Feb 07 2023 05:06 PM
I agree with @d3c3po , having the ability to track a bucket would be extremely helpful so we don't have to have multiple plans just to track a single goal. However this is an amazing product @PlannerTeam. Can't for the Projects integration to go live.

in Introducing recurring tasks and grid features in Planner on Feb 07 2023 11:32 AM
To make Planner work, we must be able to sort buckets by date or grid by date. This is a basic feature of all of your competitor solutions and really frustrating that you still haven't implemented it - even though it has been requested for at least 3 years.
