- Microsoft Planner is an easy-to-use, team-based project management tool. Its built into Microsoft 365 Groups, so each Outlook Group, Teams Team, and Yammer Community can track its open tasks in a way that doesnt require a formal project manager. It uses Kanban boards to track tasks and provide rich information about each task. There is also a personal view of Planner so each individual can see all their Planner tasks across Groups and Plans. Planner competes with tools like Trello, Wrike, and Asana.
- Microsoft Lists is a major feature and interface upgrade to SharePoint lists, separated out into its own app. While Lists can be really useful for task tracking and project management, thats not the only thing its good for. You can use Lists to create custom tables and columns that make the most sense for your needs; perhaps to track inventory, build sự kiện schedules, manage travel plans, and more. This announcement blog post provides a good overview of what Lists can do. Lists competes with tools like monday.com, Asana, and Wrike.
- Microsoft To Do replaced Wunderlistan app that Microsoft acquiredand has worked its way in to replacing the tasks section of Outlook, which is notable considering that app has been around for decades. To Do tracks personal tasks in lists and groups managed by you, the user. But the big connection To Do has with the other apps is it will show you your Planner tasks and any flagged emails from Outlook right in the app. Given its Power Automate connector, you can also add tasks from other apps, like Microsoft OneNote. To Do can centralize your tasks across your Microsoft account.
- Tasks in Teams is a recent addition to Microsoft Teams and is a central listing of your tasks in a Teams-friendly way. Its essentially a combination of Planner and To Do within Teams. It doesnt really do any work; it simply centralizes your tasks in Teams, which is the app that Microsoft is putting the most emphasis on for their modern workplace vision. This recent announcement blog post provides a good overview of Tasks in Teams.

This post is the fourth in Matts Which Tool When series. You can catch up on past posts below!
2022 has proven to be a big year for new tools and features rolling out in Microsoft 365, including the introduction of Microsoft Listsbasically a major update to the SharePoint lists experience, presented as a separate appthe new Tasks app in Microsoft Teams, and various upgrades to the two major task apps, Microsoft Planner and Microsoft To Do.
This is bringing up a lot of questions around which tool to use when, and that includes confusion of overlap among these four apps. Good task management across your life is a nirvana that app makers the world over have tried to solve the best way possible; theres a reason there are thousands of results among the Google Play and Apple App stores for task apps.

But where do Lists, Planner, To Do, and Tasks in Teams fall along the spectrum? Theres some overlap and theres some aspects of these apps that arent actually just about tasks. So lets dive in.
Are You Using the Right Microsoft Tool for the Job?
Lets talk about what these tools actually are meant for. That doesnt mean they cant do more than what I cover, just that they arent necessarily intended to:
Need to backup Microsoft Planner? Check out our Office 365 backup solution.
This basically comes down to whether the app stores and manages your tasks or presents your tasks into a single frame.
Planner and Lists are great for adding and managing team-based tasks and task lists. To Do is great for adding and managing personal tasks and task lists. Tasks in Teams is essentially a viewport to see all of your tasks in Planner and To Do. At this time, there is no integration to view any List tasks that are assigned to you through To Do and Tasks in Teams; that said, Lists is easy to add as a tab to any Team using its connector, so you have easy access to the list and your other tasks via Teams.
Now that weve covered the separation between storing tasks and viewing them, the real question of Planner, To Do, Tasks in Teams, or Lists breaks up into two questions:
As with most tech solutions, the answer is: it depends.
Microsoft Lists vs. Microsoft Planner: Whats the Difference?
While it might look like theres a lot of overlap between Planner and Lists, its not as much as you might think. Yes, you can essentially recreate a Planner experience with a List, but why would you if you dont need the customizability?
Use Planner: If you want quick, easy, and simple-to-understand project management. It works. It provides a bunch of fields for your tasks, it integrates with To Do and Tasks in Teams, and it works great for both agile and waterfall project management, especially for small teams (i.e., not enterprise portfolio management). You can view tasks in a board or calendar view and there is a nice dashboard overview included. Planner is available as a web app, Teams tab, and mobile app.
Use Lists: If you want a customized experience where you can control the task fields, their options, their layout, their views, and more. You also want a list if youre trying to manage things that arent really tasks. That brings us to examples like inventory tracking, asset management, sự kiện itineraries, and travel planning. You can view tasks (and other list items) in a list or calendar view. Lists is available as a web app, Teams tab, and mobile app.
But remember, if youre really banking on having To Do and Task in Teams integration, you need to use Planner for team-based tasks.
Microsoft To Do or Tasks in Microsoft Teams?
The choice between To Do and Tasks in Teams is a bit harder to make. Its really a judgment call. Tasks in Teams is simply a way of viewing your existing tasks in To Do and Planner. Which is to say, its really only showing your existing tasks in To Do (since Planner tasks can be viewed in To Do). But the way you view them is different.
Use To Do: If you want a listing of your tasks in a central spot, especially one that has a great mobile app and is easy to set due dates and reminders with (those push notifications really help!). To Do is great for managing your tasks on a day-to-day basis to help you build your personal schedule. To Do is good for granular task management. Its available as a web app, desktop app, and mobile app.
Use Tasks in Teams: If you prefer a larger view of your tasks, perhaps in a list with columns, youll probably prefer Tasks in Teams. Tasks in Teams also separates your tasks out by Plan and Team, which means you can home in on tasks by project and deliverable, not just an endless list of tasks that were assigned to you to be done today (some of those days are simply impossible to complete, amirite?). Also, if you never leave Microsoft Teams and its your central hub for work, use Tasks in Teams. Tasks in Teams is good for big-picture task management. Its available via the Teams web app, desktop app, and mobile app.
If Youre Looking for Gantt Charts, Look Elsewhere
One thing you wont see in any of these tools is Gantt chart functionality. This is likely because Microsoft ProjectMicrosofts premium project management toolpromotes this as a core functionality and they dont want to cannibalize their own premium app.
You can find Gantt chart functionality in the legacy tasks lists in SharePoint Online. Theyre not great, but they do work. And you can sync one Project file to a SharePoint task list to save on license cost and permission-protect various tasks. More details here.
The point is, if youre hoping one of these apps will fill this need, you need to start looking other tools because its unlikely Microsoft will provide fully featured Gantt charts into Planner or Lists. This is a major separation point from many of the competing list and task apps out there, especially Asana, Wrike, and monday.com, which all include Gantt views as part of their product offering (though, like Project, these apps come an added cost).
Find the Right Microsoft App for Effective Project Management
Youre getting a lot of choices. And thats because there are a lot of tools out there that offer some or all of these functions, all within those apps. And then you have various apps in the Microsoft 365 ecosystem that do some of them. Microsoft is doing its best to offer similar functionality so you get the most bang for your buck all while keeping your task and list information protected by world-class data protection and security.
On top of that, many of these new apps are evolutions of others and need to please the longtime users of those apps (Wunderlist, Outlook tasks, SharePoint lists). So when it comes to deciding what you want to use, consider the thoughts above and remember that if what you choose doesnt seem to be working, its smart to sit down with your team, discuss what you want to see, and play with each app to see which one can get you closest to your goal.
