Cheap/Free alternative to MS teams?
I agree, clarification is needed, Teams is a chat / voice system with other MS apps being integrated, what you want isn’t clear. It’s also not clear if you mean for you and only you, or for the team to work on together. Are you also able to put a figure on what ‘cheap’ is to you. More on community.spiceworks.com

Hello Libeamlak Zelalem MSFT,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community.

Certainly! When it comes to managing daily tasks, reporting, and streamlining communication within your team using Microsoft Teams, there are a few options you can explore:

Tasks App in Teams:

The Tasks app in Microsoft Teams integrates individual tasks from Microsoft To Do and Outlook with team tasks from Planner. It allows you to consolidate your task lists and efficiently manage them within Teams. You can track daily tasks, comment on interruptions, and even send reports to managers. Use the Tasks app in Teams - Microsoft Support

Microsoft Planner:

Microsoft Planner is a Kanban-style task management solution that simplifies to-do lists for teams. It’s connected across various Microsoft 365 apps, including Teams. You can create task lists, assign tasks, set due dates, and track progress. It also allows you to add additional information to tasks before sending reports. Task Management Kanban Solution for Teams | Microsoft Planner

Custom Solutions:

If you need more customized features, consider building a Power App or using Power Automate (formerly known as Flow) to create a tailored solution. These tools allow you to automate processes, collect data, and create custom dashboards. You can design a solution that aligns precisely with your team’s needs, including standardized reporting and progress tracking. Microsoft Power Automate – Process Automation Platform | Microsoft

Remember to evaluate these options based on your specific requirements, such as ease of use, integration with existing workflows, and the level of customization needed. Choose the one that best fits your team’s workflow and reporting needs.

Dear William Ambro,

Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to help you.

As per your description, in Microsoft Team there is planner app (choose Tasks by Planner and To Do) you can organize your tasks by adding one or more Planner tabs to a team channel. Use Schedule view to organize your tasks on calendar and you can view by Month or Week.

 Please information in this article: Use the Tasks app in Teams.

Also, there another app called SharePoint online list, Organizations typically use many types of lists, including links, announcements, contacts, issue tracking, and surveys. Microsoft Lists app is an application that helps you track information, organize work, and manage workflows across products in Microsoft 365.

Lists can also include tasks that you can use as a focal point for team collaboration or in a business solution. For example, you can use:

Tasks Include tracking of ownership and progress as well as an in-page timeline for an attractive visual presentation the list content.

Here are apps regarding to work management and task management

**Microsoft To Do:**Task management for individuals.

**Microsoft Planner:**Task management for the team.

**Microsoft Tasks:**Task management app within Teams that aggregates tasks from Microsoft To Do, Planner, and the rest of Microsoft 365’s portfolio of productivity and collaboration tools.

Meanwhile, any community members who have related experience and who read the forums regularly welcome to share your insights or knowledge here.

Your understanding and patience will be highly appreciated. I hope that you are keeping safe and well!

Sincerely,

Waqas Muhammad
