Microsoft Planner for Office 365
Create task as a card
Create a task for your plan as a 'card' with content, checklists, links and comments, and tag with six colour tags.
Add a document image of web link
You can add an image, document or web link and the card shows a preview.
See your tasks
Filter to see just your own tasks.
Chart view
See all the tasks colour-coded by status.
See an overview in the hub
See all the Plans you're part of in the Planner hub.
Notifications: only mail
Notifications might be the weakest part of Planner today; just email, not calendar reminders.
Documents shared in SharePoint
Share documents for the plan in the Team Site library in sharepoint.
Group connectors
Office 365 Groups connect to dozens of other services; it would be nice to see these send content to Planner too.
OneNote
The shared notebook is a OneNote notebook.
Office 365 integration
Planner uses Groups for membership and integrates -- sometimes at a basic level -- with many Office 365 features.
Labels are not OneNote tags
There's not enough integration; we'd like to see the custom labels for each document show up as tags in OneNote.
A good education tool
Planner should be a good tool in the education market, where Office 365 is making inroads.
