Microsoft Project Online End-of-Life: Your Path Forward with ServiceNow SPM

📅 Date: Wednesday, February 4, 2026
🕛 Time: 9:00 AM PT
Duration: 1 hour

Organizations across Canada rely on Microsoft Project Online to manage projects, portfolios, and delivery. But with Microsoft retiring Project Online on September 30, 2026 and ending new-customer sales in October 2025, thousands of teams now face a significant operational risk. Without a migration path, existing data will be lost, timelines will compress, and PMOs will be forced to rapidly identify and adopt a replacement.

For teams who want continuity, capability, and a future-ready platform, this moment offers a unique opportunity to modernize with ServiceNow Strategic Portfolio Management. SPM delivers the end-to-end functionality, portfolio visibility, and enterprise governance that Project Online and lightweight Microsoft tools like Planner or Teams cannot provide.

Join this live webinar session to understand your options, learn how leading organizations are evaluating replacements, and see why ServiceNow SPM is emerging as the preferred path forward for Project Online customers.

This discussion will be hosted by Ondaro and will highlight the market urgency, customer decision criteria, and the implementation timelines organizations need to meet in order to avoid data loss and operational disruption.

Whether you manage a lightweight project function or oversee complex PMO operations, this webinar will help you understand how to transition effectively while strengthening your project delivery, portfolio insights, and strategic planning.
