Typical migration
The migration problem
Project Online is retiring.
Your next move matters.
Microsoft Project Online
End of life: September 2026
- ✕Retires September 30, 2026 — Microsoft confirmed — no extensions
- ✕$30+/user/month — on top of Microsoft 365 licensing
- ✕Azure-only deployment — no on-premises or hybrid option
- ✕No AI features — manual risk assessment, manual planning
- ✕Desktop-era UX — web wrapper around a 20-year-old product
- ✕Migration to Project Server — expensive, complex, and also aging

Everything you need
Built for real project managers
Not a glorified to-do list. Onplana ships with enterprise-grade features out of the box.
Claude AI — built in
Risk detection, plan generation, task suggestions, NL parsing, and a streaming chat panel — all powered by Anthropic's Claude model.
Gantt + critical path
Interactive Gantt with 4 dependency types (FS/SS/FF/SF), lag times, baseline snapshots, and automatic critical path highlighting.
Sprints & agile boards
Full Scrum: sprints, epics, backlog, burndown charts, and drag-and-drop Kanban — all inside the same project.
Custom dashboard builder
18 drag-and-drop widget types — stats, charts, task lists, governance widgets, and saved reports. Role-based templates on Enterprise.
Whiteboards & wikis
Excalidraw-powered collaborative whiteboards and BlockNote real-time wikis — per project, in the same workspace.
Project mailbox
Every project gets an inbound email address. Emails auto-create tasks or comments — great for client feedback and issue intake.
Deploy anywhere
Cloud-agnostic Docker deployment. Run on AWS, Azure, GCP, or your own servers. Enterprise+ includes full self-hosting with customer-managed keys.
.MPP & OData import
Upload .MPP files directly or connect to Project Online OData API. Built-in field mapper with preview — no manual re-entry.
Enterprise governance
12-stage proposal pipeline, multi-reviewer gate reviews, Change Control Board, scenario planning, SSO/SCIM, audit logs, and IP allowlists.
Included in every plan — even Free
AI that actually understands
your project
Onplana embeds Claude — Anthropic's most capable model — directly into your workflows. Not a bolt-on chatbot. An AI co-pilot that reads your project context and gives genuinely useful advice.
- Risk detection — schedule, budget, scope, resource
- Plan generation from a goal description
- Natural language → structured task (type it, don't click it)
- Task recommendations — assignee, due date, priority
- Status summaries — "what changed since Monday?"
- AI report generation — executive summaries in seconds
AI Chat — live example
What project managers say
Built for teams who ship
From PMOs managing 50+ projects to lean teams running their first sprint.
"We moved 47 active projects from Project Online in a single weekend. The .MPP import is incredibly accurate — tasks, dependencies, baselines, everything came across. The Gantt is faster too."
Sarah Chen
Director of PMO · Infrastructure & Construction
"The Claude AI chat is genuinely useful. I asked it to flag resource conflicts for next sprint and it surfaced three issues I'd have missed. Not marketing fluff — it actually reads your project data."
Marcus Webb
Senior Project Manager · Financial Services
"Our IT team deployed it on Azure in two hours using Docker Compose. The governance pipeline and SSO/SCIM integration made the security review straightforward. Rolled out to 200 users inside a week."
