Microsoft Planner hands-on demonstration!

Former Employee

Earlier this month, we launched Microsoft Planner, which offers you a simple and visual way to organize teamwork. There are different ways we all get work done and until recently Microsoft has had solutions on two ends of the spectrum. Tools like Wunderlist or Outlook help manage your personal task lists, while Project or Project Online can be used to manage projects that require scheduling, prioritization, resource management, timesheets and integration with Line of Business systems. The middle ground is where Planner fits in, and it’s designed for structured team collaboration. For example, you can use Planner to manage events, office moves, user training or other team projects.

Great demo!

how far along is the planner rollout, we still havent received it in our tenant?

@Marc Wenning Try going to https://tasks.office.com, maybe that works... :)

Hi Marc - we hope to complete the rollout during August 2016. Best regards, Brian

Is there any timescale for the Planner developments outlined in the Office 365 roadmap? I would dearly like to use the new developments underway.
