Very important! I am considering other options as my office 365 family does not include planner. So bad that Microsoft is not integrating new services within the existing plans!

I would find this application useful to help with keeping my teenage kids organized. In high shcool there are many things that they need to juggle (sports, activities, school work, college prep and admissions, etc.) and this tool would be very useful in managing all of this activity.

I have 365 family and don't have access to it. I would like to have access to it even if it means paying a bit extra. Who says families don't need a good planning software. It would be a lot more expensive to switch to a business account and pay per user when family includes 5 users. Isn't there a middle of the road approach?

Make it available for personal home use please

Seems an unnecessarily unhelpful restriction to MS Home users not to have planner available. What's the reason?

How many enterprise advocates might MS have if they allowed their *paying* home customers to access their full set of tools...

You've already lost a potential home subscriber because of that. I'm really wanted to subscribe but I've done a final check before making the payment. And I changed my mind when I realized that subscription doesn't offer me Planner to conveniently organize my personal and family projects. Come on, it's 2020... a simple Tasks app is a joke for the needs of a modern family... especially when apps like Trello exists for free. If I must pay for a subscription but still forced to use a third party app/subscription... well... thanks, NO.

Agree with everyone here. Put Planner in the 365 Home Subscription. It will grow your business.

I think you’re missing an opportunity Microsoft, I use teams and planner at work and would use it at home to organise family life if I could get access via my personal subscription. My wife is a senior executive in a large organisation and has never used teams or planner.

Pissed off customer

It is wilful so called "strategic" decisions that put consumers off large corporations that seek to exploit their customers. Their is no doubt that the decision to exclude this from home subscribers is a decision based on profitability rather than customer service.

I use to work with planner in my work and the lack of this feature in the home edition is a blocking point to adquire the sw at personal level. I don't get the point of Microsoft strategy to create a culture of integration at corporate level but forces us to use competitor's solutions when we need planner, flow, forms, ...

I would lump Planner into the same category as Forms and Flow. If Office 365 Home users gets those apps why not offer planner as well? My family I are forced to use Trello and we would love to consolidate the number of services we have.

I agree. My family would love to be able to use it.

It’s awful that you don’t allow this under the home plans. I use at work and want to use with my family to keep household tasks organized. I can use Trello, but was trying to consolidate platforms, not add. I was looking to move my personal free account to a family plan, but now am reconsidering this.

This would be good. I have Planner through work and dislike having to use a separate package because it is not available on my home subscription.

You are missing out on a rather large robust, diversified market by limiting this tool to only the business and school accounts. You are missing all the other people who don't own business or have any college accounts but would use this tool and come to rely on it to help keep track of the family routines and track tasks and perhaps even help some with keeping up with the bill paying, If you want this tool to beat out competitors than make a home version and push the idea that family's can incorporate their children into the plans. The children will be familiar with planner and the idea of a Kan-ban board and they will take that first off to college and than off to the work force. If you are thinking that college students are going to be familar with it becuase of being a college student I can tell you that you would be wrong. The app is mixed in with a large number of other unknown and unused apps and they wont look at. the only way some of them will knnow it exsist is if a teacher uses it for a "class team". Other than that the only way to garuntee that future college students will know and use this app is to push it to them while they are in high/middle school and to try to get parents to use it with them. Keep in mind that your competitors have no problem selling their software to the normal house hold. unless you are telling me that microsfot does not care or value the traditonal normal family. I hope that is not true but rememeber that is how it comes off

Agreed. Please give Home owners a version of this. The MS ToDo app is terrible compared to apps like Cozi, so I'd like to use Planner for my ToDo task app.

Would be great to get Microsoft Planner as part of Office 365 (home). Its a great tool for families, clubs and other non-profit organizations too.

A basic version for use at home would be great as part of a home subscription.
Rationale: Trello is free as a basic Kanban. You may start using Trello at home and then you bring this into your work place and before you know it you've moved on to Jira. This means that MS could be losing out on corporate subscriptions. So why not have a basic version free and maybe a small payment for the "full version" upgrade? -

I currently use Trello to manage my personal and family projects and some work projects. However, I would like to use a Microsoft product instead - given the choice. Not everything has to be centred around Businesses - there are other areas where Project/Task Management is required if not essential. I have tried Outlook Tasks but I find this to be a bit cumbersome and it doesn't appear to have moved forwards very much in my opinion. Planner looks like a perfect replacement. Make it happen. Give us the Planner now - you know it makes sense.
