This means users may no longer see a need to pay for these third-party apps. The new Microsoft Lists app adds a new way for Microsoft 365 project management apps to compete with task management apps like Wrike and Asana. It enables users to track issues, assets, routines, contacts, inventory and more using customizable views and smart rules, and alerts to keep everyone on your team on the same page.

With the launch of Microsoft Lists, users have a new way to manage projects, lists, and tasks right in Microsoft 365. What does the dawn of Microsoft Lists mean?
