Yes, you can essentially recreate a Planner experience with a List, but why would you if you don’t need the customizability? While it might look like there’s a lot of overlap betweenPlanner and Lists, it’s not as much as you might think. Now that we’ve covered the separation between storing tasksand viewing them, the real question of “Planner, To Do, Tasks in Teams, orLists” breaks up into two questions:Īs with most tech solutions, the answer is: it depends. At this time, there is no integration to view any List tasks that are assigned to you through To Do and Tasks in Teams that said, Lists is easy to add as a tab to any Team using its connector, so you have easy access to the list and your other tasks via Teams. Tasks in Teams is essentially a view port to see all of your tasks in Planner and To Do. To Do is great for adding and managing personal tasks and task lists. Planner and Lists are great for adding and managing team-based tasks and task lists.
This basically comes down to whether the app stores and manages your tasks or presents your tasks into a single frame. This recent announcement blog post provides a good overview of Tasks in Teams. It doesn’t really do any work it simply centralizes your tasks in Teams, which is the app that Microsoft is putting the most emphasis on for their modern workplace vision. It’s essentially a combination of Planner and To Do within Teams. Tasks in Teams is a recent addition to Microsoft Teams and central listing of your tasks in a Teams-friendly way. To Do can centralize your tasks across your Microsoft account. Given its Power Automate connector, you can also add tasks from other apps, like Microsoft OneNote. But the big connection To Do has with the other apps is it will show you your Planner tasks and any flagged emails from Outlook right in the app(instructions below). To Do tracks personal tasks in lists and groups managed by you, the user. Microsoft To Do replaced Wunderlist-an app that Microsoft acquired-and has worked its way in to replacing the tasks section of Outlook, which is notable considering that “app” has been around for decades. Lists competes with tools like, Asana, and Wrike. This announcement blog post provides a good overview of what Lists can do, but you might prefer our view on Lists. You can use Lists to create custom tables and columns that make the most sense for your need, perhaps to track inventory, build event schedules, manage travel plans, and more. WhileLists can be really useful for task tracking and project management, that’s not the only thing it’s good for.

Microsoft Lists is a major feature and interface upgrade to SharePoint lists, separated out into its own app.
Planner competes with tools like Trello, Wrike, andAsana. There is also a personal view of Planner so each individual can see all their Planner tasks across Groups and Plans. It uses Kanban boards to track tasks and provide rich information about each task. It’s built into Microsoft 365 Groups, so each Outlook Group, Teams Team, and Yammer Community can track its open tasks in a way that doesn’t require a formal project manager. Microsoft Planner is an easy-to-use, team-based project management tool. Let’s talk about what these tools actually are meant for.That doesn’t mean they can’t do more than what I cover, just that they aren’t necessarily intended to:
