Microsoft Project for the web will soon become Microsoft Planner, which is currently rolling out to customers. To learn more about setting up the new Planner for your organization, see Microsoft Planner for admins.

Project for the web is a new service that is now available to Office 365 users. You can make it available to your users through the following licenses:

  • Planner Plan 1
  • Planner and Project Plan 3 (previously called Project Online Professional)
  • Planner and Project Plan 5 (previously called Project Online Premium)

If your users are currently using Project Online Professional or Project Online Premium licenses, Project for the web is available to them now. Licenses that whose name contains "without Project Client" or "Project Online with Project for Office 365" don't include access to Project for the web. Users may still be able to access Project for the web via an Office 365 License.

This article provides administrators with information to help them better understand and manage the service.
