Has anyone had the opportunity to work with MS Planner? A co-worker has a very small project (not really worth utilizing MS Project) and asked that I query the group on user experience. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thank you,

Bill

I've been running our projects using a fairly robust Excel doc that I created, but I'd like a solution that can help me evaluate resource requirements (people, schedules, production availability) for multiple projects running at the same time. Currently, I'm managing 8 projects that are in process during the same time frame. I'm not looking for an over-engineered solution. Would MS Planner suffice or would MS Projects or Monday or some other product provide the best solution?

Planner will not handle that. Your Excel sounds pretty custom and fit for purpose. Maybe move the Excel file to cloud so it is easier to edit or keep visible?

I agree with Michael. Planner is a task manager.
