Planner supports two different types of plans, Basic and Premium. There are features that both plans support, and there are features that are only available to a specific plan. Updates are continuously being made to help close on the most critical gaps in the premium plan.
The table below shows which features are included in each plan type.
Note: Access to some features depends on the user’s subscription. Visit Plans & Pricing to learn more about the different Planner subscriptions.
