In today's fast-paced digital world, staying organised and managing tasks efficiently is crucial. Microsoft Planner and Microsoft To Do are two powerful tools that can help you become more productive and collaborative.
Microsoft Planner is a robust project management tool that allows teams to create, assign, and organise tasks. Here's how it can boost your productivity:
With Microsoft Planner, you can create new tasks, set due dates, and assign them to team members. This helps in keeping track of what needs to be done and by whom, ensuring that nothing falls through the cracks.
Microsoft Planner’s Board view allows you to categorise tasks into different buckets. This visual organisation helps in understanding the project workflow better, making it easier to see the progress and status of various tasks at a glance.
Microsoft Planner is integrated with Microsoft Teams. This means you can add a Planner tab in your Teams channel where all members can view and update tasks. This seamless integration fosters better communication and teamwork.
The Charts view in Microsoft Planner provides a visual overview of the progress of your tasks. It helps in identifying bottlenecks and reallocating resources if necessary, ensuring that projects stay on track.
Microsoft To Do is a personal task management app that helps you manage your daily tasks. Here’s how it can make you more productive:
Microsoft To Do allows you to star important tasks. This helps in prioritising your work and focusing on what matters the most, ensuring that critical tasks get the attention they need.
You can set reminders and due dates for your tasks to ensure you never miss a deadline. This feature is particularly useful for keeping on top of both long-term projects and daily to-dos.
Microsoft To Do lets you create lists for both personal and work tasks. This helps in maintaining a work-life balance, as you can keep track of all your responsibilities in one place.
Microsoft To Do is integrated with Outlook Tasks. This means any task you create in Outlook will automatically appear in Microsoft To Do, allowing for a unified task management experience.
