Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Planner

Microsoft Planner is used in the company as a ticketing tool, for collecting user requests, and as an activity organizer. We are using the tool on a daily basis to assign tasks to various members of the IT department. A very useful and functional product for planning and reporting on activities requested by other company departments.

Pros

  • Ticketing tool
  • Simple and intuitive
  • Immediately ready for use

Cons

  • Customizable notifications per user
  • Advanced task scheduling
  • User response management
  • 40% optimization of activities
  • Resource management
  • Team workload management
The tool is easy to use, but it is just as easy to set up. No specific skills are required, but its usefulness in our work is immediately apparent. Colors are very helpful in creating a clear interface and providing a very precise overview of the tasks to be performed.
We tried to select software from various tools, and in the end we chose Planner both for economic reasons (it is included in the Microsoft 365 license we have in the company) and for its ease of use (we have no particular or specific needs, such as advanced scheduling or ticket response).

In our scope, Microsoft Planner has become a collection of tasks for development, support, and incidents related to the IT environment and specifically in the ERP field. It allows us to keep track of all the activities that need to be done on a specific tool. It's very useful for planning and reporting on activities requested by other departments.
