This webinar "What’s NEW with Microsoft Planner" hosted by Caroline Henne, focused on the latest features of Microsoft Planner, specifically its integration with Microsoft Teams. We introduced the session, providing a historical context of various Microsoft project management tools like Microsoft Project, To-Do, and Teams. The emphasis was on the evolution of these tools and their current integration into a cohesive task management system within Teams. The webinar outlined the basic and premium plans available in the new Planner, detailing their features, differences, and licensing requirements.

We demonstrated the functionalities of both basic and premium plans, highlighting the user interface within Teams, including task creation, assignment, and management features. Basic plans offer standard task management capabilities, while premium plans provide advanced features like Gantt charts, dependencies, and subtask management.
