Description
Microsoft Planner has introduced exciting new tools and features designed specifically for team leaders. Users now have the ability to establish necessary custom fields within a single plan and seamlessly duplicate them across multiple plans. Additionally, they can view the latest run time and status for OneDrive or local backups. Tasks can be easily copied or moved from one plan to another by simply selecting the desired destination plan name. There's also the option to archive Planner tasks within a SharePoint List, allowing for archived plans and their tasks to be viewed in a read-only format. The Power BI reporting pack enables users to develop dynamic dashboards for Microsoft Planner by consistently updating data to keep the dashboards current. Furthermore, users can schedule automatic backups of their plans and tasks as Excel files to OneDrive or a local folder, which can be utilized to recreate Plans and Tasks through the Planner Manager. The task movement feature allows users to transfer tasks between plans along with all associated attachments and conversations. They can also export and import tasks using Excel, and create plan templates to easily initiate new plans from scratch, enhancing overall productivity and collaboration within teams. This comprehensive set of tools empowers team leaders to manage their projects more effectively than ever before.
Description
PingCadence serves as an online tool designed for gathering status updates aimed at project managers, PMO leaders, and managers in engineering or program roles. It facilitates the import of task plans from platforms such as Jira, Asana, monday.com, Trello, ClickUp, Wrike, and Microsoft Planner, while also accommodating Excel and CSV files as well as Microsoft Project XML or exports from Excel. Each task is set up for check-ins that display planned dates, which are dispatched through the manager’s Outlook or Gmail account, either for prior review or according to a predetermined schedule. Task owners can conveniently respond via a link without the need to create an account, indicating whether their tasks are on track, hard to assess, or not on track, along with any proposed revised dates. Project managers review these responses and have the option to implement date adjustments, which can then be recorded back into the supported project management tools. PingCadence maintains the baseline schedule and offers comprehensive status reporting, highlighting pending responses and suggested changes, with the ability to export reports in PDF and CSV formats. The platform's free tier accommodates one plan with a maximum of 10 users, while the paid subscriptions introduce additional features such as scheduled check-ins, automated reminders, write-back capabilities, and enhanced report exports, making it an ideal solution for teams seeking streamlined project oversight. Users can thus efficiently manage their project timelines and communication with minimal hassle.
