Microsoft Loop ٤+

If anyone is familiar with *Notion or **Bear, then I’d say Loop is a happy medium that is embedded into the 365 environment. I would go as far as saying this could eliminate OneNote, Planner and To-Do.
Loop + Teams = Effective Communication.

I also love the integration between the Meeting Agenda in Teams and Loop. So effective.

*In terms of prompting and inserting prebuilt modules like tables, trackers, and tasks.
**In terms of its simplicity.

Suggestions:
1. Templates (if they exist I haven’t found them): There are several basic templates that could help users, yet, not go overboard in analysis paralysis like Notion. Keep it simple.
2. Co-Pilot (if available, I haven’t found it): AI Writing Assistance + Loop = Effective Communication

I'm a big fan of Microsoft Office 365 and I see value in some of the things they do alot of the times they get ahead of themselves and don't perfect the system but as my mentor one said shoot and then aim. This is no different with this loop program. I am not a computer tech so it's a little harder for me to understand and maneuver within the program but I've been working on trying to implement projects and assign them to experts that can help implement the project and get into the field instantly.

I would give it a five if they take the technology side of it and implemented it for those of us that are not tech experts, and make it a lot easier To implement projects and assign them to vendors/ contractors outside of our organization that are experts, so you can bring them into move on the project. I would recommend it, especially now that they have the MS Loop app.

I love Microsoft Loop, it’s great having a free alternative to Notion and Jira that won’t break the bank of a small team. However, the iPad app is pretty bad compared to the desktop site, and you can’t access the desktop site from your iPad (at least I haven’t figured out how). Lots, if not the majority of features are missing from the iPad app. Even things like being able to name your wiki pages or creating a subpage are missing. You can’t create kanban boards or any type of template apart from wikis. The UI is very nice and clean, it just doesn’t do a lot. I’m looking forward to future versions of this app, but as of now it’s still got a ways to go.
