Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about the Project Online retirement and migration to OnePlan.
Why choose OnePlan over other tools?

Unlike third-party tools, OnePlan is fully aligned with Microsoft 365, supports hybrid work management, integrates with Planner, Teams, Azure DevOps, and delivers AI-powered insights with Microsoft Copilot.

Microsoft has officially announced the retirement date of Project Online as September 30, 2026 — after which the service will no longer be available.

Many organizations choose OnePlan as their replacement because it delivers the full project, portfolio, resource, and financial management capabilities that Project Online users rely on, all within a modern Microsoft 365–aligned platform. OnePlan integrates with Planner, Project for the Web, Teams, Azure DevOps, and Power BI, giving teams a familiar experience with far more flexibility and insight than Project Online. Other Microsoft tools like Project for the Web or Planner can support lighter work, but OnePlan is often the best fit for PMOs needing an enterprise-level PPM solution.

Start by reviewing your current projects, data, and integrations, then identify what you need in a modern PPM solution. Next, create a migration plan so you can move your data, rebuild workflows, and train your team ahead of the September 2026 retirement. Beginning the process early helps prevent disruption.
