Comments on: You Might Want to Turn Off Outlook Sync of My Tasks in Microsoft Planner https://practical365.com/outlook-tasks-sync-icalendar/ Practical Office 365 News, Tips, and Tutorials Mon, 29 Jan 2024 18:45:16 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.6.1 By: Ryan https://practical365.com/outlook-tasks-sync-icalendar/#comment-240472 Thu, 14 Jul 2022 01:33:43 +0000 https://www.practical365.com/?p=40923#comment-240472 That is the problem with all lower end office task management tools. Everything runs off due date, which is sure important, but what about the sub steps that must be completed days/weeks and even months before.
This is where old sharepoint task list helped, but he new system chronically fails.
If someone could get a system up and running as a 3rd party/store add in that utilized these planner / outlook task / to-do tools, but gave us time planning capacity, it would be great. It would sell like hot cakes.
Pricing needs to be somewhere about 1/3rd the cost of running Project which is what we have to go to to get this functionality. For most people project is too much of a jump, and way too complicated to be practical for daily use in the case of most small businesses or teams.
Don’t get me wrong, I am a project fan, but since changing business, the amount of things that lack from not having project is truly disappointing, but we don’t in the new business need all those features, we just need some small basics that you do get only when you get project licenses.
I now understand why so many people fall off O365, this task management system is such a let down

I don’t find it very useful myself. Using a calendar to manage tasks isn’t how I do things, because tasks usually need to be worked on *before* the due date.

So not too much point to it if you are strict with your taska.
