## Reviews

### "Planning with Microsoft Planner" — 5.0/5

> **Mai** | *22 March 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: As a busy event planner, for me the best features are its ability to provide a snapshot of my daily and weekly tasks\! I am constantly working on multiple programs at once, so I live and die by a helpful planner that keeps me on task\!
> 
> **Cons**: It doesn't have a traditional desktop version so I thought that could be problematic. We installed it as an app and it's working just fine\!
> 
> Our entire company is made up of event planners, meeting planners and time management is the most important skill we all need. We truly live and die by our calendars and task management tools, so Microsoft Planner was a natural choice for us\!

### "Fast & efficient Project Tracking made easy\!" — 5.0/5

> **Elizabeth** | *18 September 2025* | Mental Health Care | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Microsoft planner is a great project management tool to track projects and tasks in one place. The team collaboration features within this product are amazing\! I can track project progress across all my team members and use certain features to communicate with each other and getting reminders about these things via email notifications from planner. I love the fact that you can enjoy planner basic to get started and get familiar with using the tool. Because there is a learning curve that requires you to use it and practice using it. However, for the more advanced project managers out there, there is planner premium that allows for more robust project, managing tools and offers the assistance of AI With all of the premium license plans. This tool is universal and can be used by anyone who needs to track project progress.
> 
> **Cons**: There is a learning curve with using any software and there are free demos and tutorials on how to use the product.
> 
> My overall experience with Microsoft planner is that I can track all of my projects in one platform and I can set permissions for team members to collaborate with me on plans to track tasks and milestones for these projects. I can even track team outputs from task assignments. It gives me the security. I need to keep my projects private, and on schedule as it does connect with calendar. Overall, it’s a wonderful tool to use for the project manager. That is a more visual leader.

### "Microsoft Planner helps track Inbound orders" — 3.0/5

> **Dana** | *24 November 2025* | Publishing | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Microsoft Planner is a nice tool to keep track of Inbound Shipments and their statuses. We share it between multiple departments, including our warehouse team, and we can see how far along they are in their processes.
> 
> **Cons**: Microsoft Planner gives an alert as soon as you are tagged in a card, even if the person creating the card tagged you and then is on there way to add the card details. this is annoying and i wish the notification would come after the card is complete.
> 
> Overall experience has been fine, we used to use a competitor and then switched over to Microsoft Planner, and the two softwares are almost identical.

### "Great tool for task management if you are using other MS apps" — 5.0/5

> **Marko** | *29 December 2025* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: MS Planner is a great task and planning tool, so you can keep track of your work. It's well integrated with other M365 apps. I like the special plans for team collaboration feature, where it creates a closed space for collaborating only with invited colleagues. Free version has enough task views options for you to keep a track of your tasks timeline (grid, board, calendar and charts), as well as filters. It's well integrated with power automate, allowing you to create automations. It's very easy to figure out how it works.
> 
> **Cons**: If you want to have some advanced planning tools, like having a Gantt chart for your tasks, you need to have the paid version.
> 
> If you're using Microsoft software for your work, it's a no-brainer to use Planner instead of other similar tools

### "Good tool to manage your team" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *6 July 2025* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It is very easy to set up and get using, the different interfaces e.g. grid/task list, board, timeline, are all easy to switch between, and with minimal training.
> 
> **Cons**: Thus far, it pretty much requires a full account with Microsoft Projects to be used properly. Whilst technically it can be used as free, missing dependencies or ability to subset tasks among other features mean that without this it will be a task list at best.
> 
> Great replacement for Smartsheet, manages your team well, and with full integration with Microsoft suite of tools.
