Student projects in one shared university hub
planCoo helps universities organise student projects and collaboration across faculties, departments, research groups, companies, and other institutions.
University hub
Student €5 / month
Or university-paid licences
EU data
Students use professional project tools to plan work, coordinate responsibilities, and collaborate across organisational boundaries. Their project participation automatically builds a Live CV showing projects, roles, and contributions.
The university gets one shared hub for organising faculties, classes, student groups, and projects, with a clearer view of activity, progress, and where support may be needed.
What students get
Work across organisations
Collaboration with companies, research partners, and other universities. See cross-company collaboration.
Live CV
A Live CV automatically updated through project participation. See Live CV from projects.
Public project pages
Share selected results on a planCoo page while internal work remains private. See project visibility.
What the university gets
One hub
Faculties, classes, programmes, and student groups in one organisation. How the hub works: hub and portfolio management.
Access control
The university controls hub membership. Who is on a project is decided by the project owner or a project admin.
Visibility
A clearer view across projects, participation, and progress — and where support may be needed.
AI status drafts
Drafts for groups, classes, faculties, or the entire university hub. See AI project reports.
Your existing systems stay in place
planCoo does not replace the university’s learning management system or document storage.
SharePoint, OneDrive, Google Drive, and institutional repositories remain in place. planCoo provides the project structure that connects people, responsibilities, activities, and existing resources. You link to files from the project; planCoo stores the link, not the file. See SharePoint and planCoo.
Two ways to provide access
Students bring their own licence
A limited number of universities can receive a free Hub Starter Kit, including up to five administrative accounts.
Students purchase their own licence for €5 / month or €50 / year. The university controls hub membership.
After the free launch allocation, the Hub Starter Kit costs €49 / month.
The university provides licences
The university purchases and assigns licences to students, programmes, or departments. There is no free hub and no free student seats on this path.
Choose a listed package through Microsoft Marketplace or plancoo.com/subscriptions, or contact us for an enterprise package based on the number of licences: [email protected].
Sponsor-supported access
Explore Sponsor a School, an initiative being developed to help organizations fund school access to planCoo and connect education with working life. Sponsorship does not grant access to private projects or student information.
EU data storage
Primary application data is stored in the EU. The university controls hub membership. The project owner or a project admin decides who is on the project and what is made public. Details: data governance and the privacy overview.
