It’s official, Microsoft Project Online will retire on September 30, 2026. If you’re looking for a Project Online replacement, look no further than Altus!

What's comes after Microsoft Project Online?

For Project Managers flexibility is essential, you need the freedom to choose the right scheduling tool for each project.

For complex initiatives, Microsoft Project Desktop remains the gold standard. While the flexibility and ease of use of Microsoft Planner and Planner Premium make them perfect for lighter weight projects.

Altus offers the best of both worlds. For Project Online customers Altus is a modern, Microsoft 365 native path forward. Best of all, it preserves the Microsoft Project Desktop synchronisation that so many love in Project Online.
