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

Hi everyone,
We recently announced and rolled out the new Microsoft Project, which was designed specifically to help teams of all sizes collaborate on projects more efficiently and achieve more together. It was designed to be simple and powerful, so that anyone can get started quickly and take control of any project – regardless of its size – right away.
The new Microsoft Project has been redesigned. You can see your tasks on a Gantt chart (“Timeline”) view, a Board view (similar to Planner’s), and a Grid view, both requested from many of our Planner users. I encourage you to look at the links below and the attached GIF for a sneak peak.
With this, we also rolled out a new subscription plan called “Project Plan 1” that allows you to start quickly and manage projects easily via the web browser.

Thanks everyone for your patience, I encourage you to check out the new Project, and even start a trial to see if it’s right for you!
Best,
The Project and Planner team

After reading few comments and response, I don't think Gantt chart will be available in Planner. The solution is : get license for Project. Lol.

I assume that MS is refusing to add a gantt chart view in order to steer users toward the purchase of additional licensing for Project.
However I have project and still want a gantt chart view in planner - maybe just enable it for those that are already paying for the project licensing to protect that revenue stream. Please. :) -

this is amazing that such a small feature cannot be achieved : a view mode in gantt rather than in calendar (completely useless to see tasks in calendar in my opinion)
so many concurrent products (ex. teamwork) can do it out-of-the-box ! -

here too a Gantt chart would be necessary.
If not we have to look elsewhere.

So here we are in 2021 and progress on this is glacial to say the least!
Signposting to a massively complex additional subscription product is NOT a solution. All we ask is a simple GANNT view along side day/week/month in the calendar. If it is NOT GOING TO HAPPEN please have the decency to come out and say it so we can all move on.
So come on Microsoft, show us Planner isn't going to be a legacy product discarded in to the pit of doom!

Can't agree more with other comments. You guys in Microsoft has created a dozen of half-working apps, having part of essential functionality in ones and another part in others. Why not to make and develop fewer proper apps instead of this zoo? Indeed Gantt view for Planner is super easy to add, believe me it's absence will not increase your sales of Project licences, it will only increase annoyance of the customers and community.

My company has moved us all to MS Teams and I heavily invested myself in creating Tasks in there. Now that I have invested serious time into this, I think I now realize that I have two choices: 1) I go without a Gantt chart (fine with me, but my users insist they want one); 2) I throw all my work away and restart using a different tool.
I can't believe that I'm finding posts going back to 2018 talking about this topic and promising a Gantt chart for this and, here we are in 2021, and it's just not available.

I understand you want to make Project and hence dependencies and Gantt charts an upsell, but your Project online is barely an MVP and even misses so many features that are in Planner. If there was some way to actually connect Planner and Project tasks that might help, but as it is your tools are disconnected and both weak. Project Online is certainly not worth what you're asking for it, it is missing far too many core features

Hello Microsoft - I feel this is a in sufficient answer.
MS Project is a level too much for what we need to do, please provide basic option in Planner - or allow them to work with the old sharepoint list concept where we had these basic features available.
Also allow custom fields please -

Yes - pleas provide this feature in Planner. In Project web app many features are missing. Like synchronizing tasks in ToDoLists, sharing in calendar, etc.
I'm just missing the Gantt view - the rest ist perfect for my company.

We use both planner and project - but its useless for portfolio management as we cant see the big picture of our planner boards and project plans together - perhaps planner needs to be integrated into Roadmap?

Microsoft Project is not an option for us at the moment. We would like the Gant chart functionality in Planner please.

So ... You're saying I can try to decipher the monstrosity that is Microsoft pricing (and the resultant sticker shock that comes with this fun little process) when I can get something that is literally a step away from what I want for free in Planner.
No thanks. If we're paying, We'll pay for what we want, rather than what you want to give.

We use MS Planner more and more to assign tasks/responsibilities and to set due dates. A Gantt chart overview would be the most valuable addition. Please have this considered sooner than later. Thank you
