Gantt chart view
I want to be able to make tasks dependent on other tasks, and see them in a Gantt chart view, similar to TeamGantt.com.

So what's the deal? Suggested almost two years ago... any update on progress?

Seems odd that you can create a simple Gantt chart in Excel but not Planner. It's a startling omission really.

GANTT could be useful, however, might Change the essence of Planner, as GANTT will require a number of additional features; i.e. resources, priorities, effort needed etc.

Gantt is essential for a good management of a project, Microsoft is losing space with competitors such as Asana.

its overly simplified - its more of a Kanban board, to be truly useful it should have dependencies and links between tasks

We would love to replace our gantt chart in our erp with planner.
Requires for specifik checklists like "Start datetime", "End datetime",
Split checklists between different members.
And then the gantt view for each workday, with hour and minutes as scale -

Yes. Gantt charts are a entrenched staple of project management. So many business executives understand them. The fact that Planner can't generate them weakens Planner as a communication tool with my customers.
If I could ask for just two features it would be task dependencies and Gantt charts.
Must haves if I'm going to make Planner competitive in project management. -

With more enterprise customers switching to use Teams instead of other solutions like Slack, Planner has a good use case for this. Various teams might use tools like Jira or Trello, but having a road map view via Gantt charts is an added advantage which would make users utilize Planner nore often.

Agreed. I want to be able to use this with my teams, but find myself needing a separate Gantt chart--which inevitably leads to chaos. This is an absolute must!

Planner without a Gantt chart is a severely hobbled offering. It is not worth the effort to enter and manage the data unless I can generate Gantt charts. Please add this feature. Please. Sooner rather than later.

16 months, 1,400 votes and yet no timeline or Gantt chart feature. I'm honestly not surprised because it's Microsoft. I understand Microsoft is trying to protect cannibalization of other MS products like Project, but so often they obviously fail to see the competition outside their own product offerings. Considering that this is part of a paid service I expect better. This tool is useless in a team/engineering environment without additional features. There are better free options.

It would be also great to have the gantt chart be sorted by assigned member project (buckets)

The SharePoint Task List can be integrated with Project and can be viewed as a Gantt Chart. Why not allow Planner to be integrated with the Task List?
For most users the Planner dashboard would be a consolidated view of all tasks they had across multiple projects.

Wrike has this functionality and is a very rounded tool compared to Planner. MS need to increase the pace of development on Planner if it is to be adopted, organisations need a complete planning tool, not a cut down Trello.

I have recently tried Apps4.Pro Planner Manager which offers Gantt view for tasks in Planner. Worked great and I can manage the tasks efficiently now.

An enterprise planning tool needs Gantt functionality. I agree with Dustin that without it its just a simple planner. Honestly we were expecting more.

If you don't add Gant, you should just call it Microsoft Sticky Notes.
