They should have bought Trello instead of cloning it.

@jordiromero but then you'd have to pay for trello

@davidcreates maybe, but MS could have let Trello stay freemium and get an awesome product (similar to what they did with Wunderlist etc)

Does this get bundled in Office 365?

@matsilva It doesn't show up in the grid menu in my O365 and I think it requires an enterprise O365 license.

@matsilva @nivo0o0 For organizations committed to Office 365, assuming they integrate it properly (Planner Tasks -> individuals' Outlook Tasks, e.g.) along with the OneDrive/O365 document sharing shown, it will be quite powerful. And I say that loving Trello but living in an Office 365 world at work.

@deanbrady @matsilva It is only for business subscriptions, not home users. It will take a few weeks to roll out.

Clearly something Microsoft needed in their Office suite which is trying to maintain it's powerhouse status. The ability to drill down and view board-by-column, board-by-person, tasks-by-person really quickly makes this useful. Excited to try it out.

I get the MSFT & O365 hate, but some people are restricted by corporate governance policies and are not allowed to use Trello and Asana (tiny violin). I still need a project mgmt tool, or a Trello-like desktop app in my workflow so if this is all ya girl gets, she will take it.

I can see the appeal, but there are so many of these. Just another drop in the bucket.

Looks like a typical microsoft stab at trying to create something that exists already but make it better only to fail massively. Looks like a clunky UX nightmare. Sorry MS but it is.

@codesauced they made "Send" to take out slack but failing miserably so far.

It's interesting the team from MSFT is still not here yet. Interesting design though. Definitely has its potential.

No markdown support. I can't believe ...

If you want project management with OneDrive integration why not just using https://redbooth.com ? I understand they want a simpler "Project" but this seems to me like reinventing the wheel...
