"Solid, Serious, and Modern Planning & Scheduling Software"
What do you like best about Oracle Primavera?
This review is for P6 PPM, which is the desktop client version. As far as planning and scheduling software is concerned, Primavera P6 is SERIOUS. For example, P6 utilizes a Critical Path Method (CPM) engine and allows more than one relationship between two activities. Primavera P6 is also SOLID - allows for detailed analysis after resource loading (labor, non-labor, cost) so that the user can compare planned resource requirements against the organization's capacity to determine achievability. Primavera P6 is also MODERN. Oracle regularly releases new updated versions. Furthermore, with the advent of BIM methodology, software integration is the talk of the day - to which Primavera P6 can seamlessly integrate with other leading 4D software.

What do you dislike about Oracle Primavera?
Graphical reports generated directly from Primavera P6 look outdated compared to some current offerings in the market - hence why many P6 users resort to exporting P6 raw data to spreadsheets to generate S-Curves, resource histograms, and even dashboards. The Report wizard is initially a welcome feature until one tries to amend such a report - it requires a steep learning curve. Other than that Primavera P6 is a well-rounded planning and scheduling software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
