Will I still be able to access P4W on my browser while looking at my project with the Teams overlay? It is common for me to use 2 screens and view Project 4 web files in a web browser and in Teams. For me this ability is very important. I realize no P4W functionality will be lost initially but, I want to ensure this ability stays in the roadmap for this.
Question: Our marketing manager wants a high level view of every task assigned to every person across every plan in every channel (currently 26 events) in one Team. Will the new Planner enable her to get this broad overview?
When is the new planner launched in Australia and will it be available to everyone on a standard business or education plan?
Re the question about managing the pace of change. This is important to our organisation and we would like to turn things off until we have had a chance to ensure they do not pose any risks and still comply with our regulatory responsibilities. Robert answered this question but it was from the perspective of how Microsoft manages the change and not how we as organisations can manage the change..... What options are there for Admins to turn off apps / features or services with the right knowledge that means we do not break something?
Am I right that neither old Planner, new Planner, nor Project permit direct pasting of screen clippings into a task? That can't be right.
Where can I access the recording from the 4 Apr 2024 event?
Our 365 E3 license includes Planner and Project and we don't have the new Premium Planner? Is that right?
Office 365 E3 includes Planner.
Planner Premium is really the successor to Project for the web which was always a separate purchase and part of Project P1 and Project P3 (the names of these subscriptions may change in the future to reflect that they unlock Planner Premium).
