Paths forward — your choice

How we work

The honest picture first.

Project Online is retiring September 30, 2026. Microsoft's recommended replacement — Planner — is a task tool, not enterprise PPM. Project Server Subscription Edition remains available and is the right answer for some organizations. EPMA doesn't push you toward any particular path. We've been implementing Project Server for enterprise clients since the beginning. We also built PPMX — a modern cloud-native alternative — because some of those same clients asked us for something better. We offer both honestly. The right answer depends on your organization, your infrastructure, and your long-term direction. We'll help you figure out which one that is.

Four Options

Choose your path forward

EPMA serves organizations at every stage of the Project Server journey — from first implementation to modern migration.

Project Server Implementation. You need Project Server deployed on-premises for your organization. EPMA configures, deploys, and trains your team — drawing on 17 years of enterprise PPM implementation experience. What's included → Requirements scoping and governance design → Full Project Server configuration and deployment → Data migration from existing systems → Team training and adoption support → Go-live and post-launch stabilization
Landing page displaying perfectly on mobile and desktop devices
Hosted Project Server in the Cloud. You want Project Server without managing your own infrastructure. EPMA provides a dedicated cloud-hosted Project Server environment — all the capability, none of the on-premises overhead. What's included → Dedicated cloud environment — not shared infrastructure → EPMA-managed setup, configuration, and maintenance → Security, backups, and updates handled by EPMA → Full Project Server capability without on-premises complexity → Scalable to your organization's size and growth
Landing page with clear conversion pathway and prominent call-to-action
Migration from Project Server. You're ready to move on. Whether you're migrating to PPMX or another platform, EPMA manages the transition — data, governance redesign, team change management, and go-live. What's included → Data extraction, cleansing, and migration planning → Governance reset — not just a lift-and-shift → Parallel-run period to ensure continuity → Team training on the new platform → Post-migration support and optimization

PPMX — Built for Where PMOs Are Going. EPMA built PPMX for organizations that want what Project Server was always supposed to deliver — without the infrastructure overhead, the Microsoft dependency, or the legacy architecture. What makes it different → Modern SaaS — zero Microsoft dependency, zero on-premises overhead → Live in 6-8 weeks — not 6-8 months → Built for adoption — governance that teams actually use → Avery — AI project partner built with an ethical framework → EPMA consulting included — not upsold

YOU HAVE A CHOICE

Project Server vs. PPMX

We implement both. Here's how we think about when each one is the right answer.

Project Server

Subscription Edition — On-premises or hosted

Learn More
What you get
Right for strict on-premises requirements Regulatory or security mandates requiring infrastructure control
Right for deep Microsoft ecosystem integration Heavy dependency on SharePoint, Active Directory, or SQL Server
Right for organizations that know Project Server well Existing trained users and established workflows

PPMX

Cloud-native enterprise PPM — Built by EPMA

Learn More
WHAT'S INCLUDED
Right for organizations ready to leave Microsoft PPM Zero dependency on Microsoft infrastructure — nothing they can sunset
Right for organizations that need fast deployment Live in 6-8 weeks — designed to land before the September 30 deadline
Right for organizations where adoption has been the problem Governance designed for how PMs actually work — not how IT thinks they should
AI-ready architecture Avery, PPMX's embedded project partner, is built for the data model PPMX creates
Modern SaaS — no infrastructure to manage EPMA handles everything — implementation, hosting, ongoing optimization
