And as it can be easy to get lost in the details of all the available tools, so I have intentionally stayed “high level” with comments.įollowing are the Microsoft tools I reviewed: I also wanted to see how well these tools interacted/integrated with each other “out of the box”. I wanted to assess, from my own perspective, which may work better/best in certain scenarios – e.g., individual use, small team/small complexity project use, and medium-to-large team/more complex project use. So, as an organizer, planner, and someone who works for a Microsoft Partner organization, I recently stepped back to look at the plethora of planning and organizing tools that Microsoft provides. I suppose that is a good thing in my role as Project Manager/Scrum Master, where many times I feel like I am herding cats on projects. With the plethora of Microsoft 365 (M365) Task and Planning tools, how do you know which to use and how well do they integrate together?
