Abstract: A brief status of the Planck mission (instrument and DPC status, product schedule and milestones) will be given in the introduction. Description of contents and usage of the Planck Early Release Compact Source Catalog (ERCSC) - First Planck Public Product released, including the Early Cold Cores (ECC) and the Early Sunyaev-Zeldovich (ESZ) cluster catalogue is then presented. The catalog is based on data that consists of mapping the entire sky once and 60% of the sky a second time by Planck with the goal to reach the 90% of cumulative reliability with the scope to be used in follow-up.
