Why is the Planner group in this Network under Office Apps?
Why is Planner under Office Apps section in the new network? Wouldnt it make more sense to be its own top level service? Or worst case a subgroup under O365 Groups since it is really fits kinda underneath that technology?

- I agree. Video, Yammer, Delve are their own top level groups. Planner is harder to find if it is under Office Apps, which traditionally refer to Word, Excel, PowerPoint, OneNote...
With the exception of individual Office apps, if a product has its own tile in the O365 app launcher, shouldn't it also have a top level group in this network?

Hey Darrell, that is how it is organized now in order to keep things clean. Agreed that 'technically' everything is an Office App, just as PowerPoint, Excel, etc. can be found in the app launcher as well. We are working on finding a way to better surface the groups that are hidden under Office Apps.
If the app/service has an icon in the O365 App Launcher, then it ought to be a top-level section here in the community (e.g. Planner, Sway). That's what people would naturally expect.
