Summary:
Microsoft Project for the web and Project in Teams will retire by August 2025, redirecting users to Microsoft Planner for the web and Planner in Teams. Planner integrates To Do, Planner, and Project features, offering seamless migration and new capabilities. Users must migrate Roadmaps to Portfolios and update Teams tabs accordingly.
Details:
Updated September 30, 2025: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.
The new Microsoft Planner for the web (https://planner.cloud.microsoft) brings together the simplicity of Microsoft To Do, the collaboration of Planner, and the advanced capabilities of Microsoft Project into one platform. Planner for the web offers a comprehensive and scalable solution, whether users are managing individual tasks or overseeing professional-grade projects. All users with an existing Project for the web license will have access to Planner. (A Microsoft Teams license is also required to use Planner in Teams.)
Starting early August 2025, we will retire Project for the web and will redirect its users to Planner for the web and Planner for Teams, for a smooth transition.
Premium plans from Project for the web automatically will be available in Planner, ensuring users experience a seamless migration without losing any data.
We will add these capabilities to Planner before the redirect goes into effect:
Users will be able view and manage non-default environment plans in Planner.
We will rename Project Power app to Planner power app (and the button to open the plan in Project will be replaced with a button to open the plan in Planner).
Project settings in the Microsoft 365 admin center will move to the Planner page in the admin center.
Tenants with only Project licenses will be able to access basic plan functionality in Planner.
We will roll out the new Planner to GCC High.
User experience in Project and Roadmap for the web and Teams
When launching Project for the web or Roadmap for the web, users will see a page directing them to open Planner for the web, they will not be able to dismiss this screen or use Project or Roadmap for the web.
Existing Project tabs in Teams will no longer open the associated project, and instead will show users a page to inform them to re-pin their tab using the Planner tab for Teams
Existing Roadmap tabs in Teams will no longer open the associated roadmap, and instead will show a page directing users to the Planner app in Teams
Users will no longer have access to view or create Roadmaps in Project for the web, but their Roadmap data will remain in Dataverse
We will remove the Project tab and Roadmap tab apps from the Teams app store.
[When this will happen:]
For Worldwide: We will begin rolling out early August 2025 and expect to complete by mid-August 2025.
For GCC: We will begin rolling out mid-August 2025 and expect to complete by late August 2025.
For GCC High: We will begin rolling out late August 2025 and expect to complete by early October 2025 (previously mid-September).
