Microsoft Teams Planner TIPS and Tricks 2025

The new Microsoft Planner available in Microsoft Teams, brings together all of your tasks from the old Planner & Project, Microsoft Loop, Microsoft Outlook, and Microsoft To-Do. Which is great because everything is under one roof. But this can also lead to overwhelm because you have so many to-do items and you aren't exactly sure how to manage them.

In this Microsoft Planner Tutorial, we are going to look at each of these components differently. I'll also share with you my top tips so that you can learn how to manage your tasks effectively.

If you are a student, teacher, project manager, business owner or super nerd like me, then we have got you covered!
