Market leader scheduling and planning software
It was my daily driver for years and despite the steep learning curve, it was an extremely capable tool.
PROS- has everything required for project scheduling using critical path method (WBS, activities, cost and resource loading) - Global change offers an unbelievably powerful solution to change thousands of activities on the fly. - Can handle very large schedules that include tens of thousands of activities at ease. - Works using databases rather than project files which makes it suitable for working on many projects and offers many types of databases (Oracle, SQL server, SQLite) - supports single or multiple users - now has the EPPM version which is cloud-based and has improved immensely over the years
CONS- It shines for large and complex projects, for smaller and simpler schedules it tends to be more cumbersome. - It requires a very good understanding of how the software and CPM work when analysing results. Otherwise; mistakes can be done easily - While powerfull, the reporting feature of the Pro version (Standalone) looks antiquated in comparison to the EPPM cloud version. - The standalone version has not received any important feature updates for years. - Lacks the seamless integration with MS Office that MS Project has - Requires IT assistance to migrate the database from one computer to another
Reasons for switching to Oracle Primavera Cloud
More suitable for large projects. Utilizes a database rather than files. More control over the schedule and reporting

Precise calculations, great for complex scheduling of projects
I have been using Primavera for about 12 years now, and I've been training people how to use it, I've managed to train government engineers, construction contractors, engineering firms, and sponsors, it has been a great experience, the program is very precise when it comes to time, cost, resource, risk, and schedule calculations (CPM, PERT).
PROS- Great for large scale projects - Detailed scheduling with time and cost breakdown - Perfect filtering features - High level resource management functionality - Expense distribution over activity duration
CONS- Graphics are not very appealing - Jumping between tabs on the lower ribbons is very annoying compared to the tabs functionality available now on office software, and Autodesk products

Oracle Primavera
I would say that it is less challenging to use primavera than Microsoft project.
PROSIt is best project management software, planning, scheduling, resource managing, controlling can be done for any project . Eventhough it is a complex analysis and process, It is not much difficult to use. Some advance features like top-down scheduling, longest path critical activity definition , activity steps and etc are now available . VBA is not required to separate and material cost.
CONSIn my experience, It would be slightly difficult to adopt for beginner.

Oracle Primavera Review
It's adaptable with regards to coordinating bunches of exercises, with one stage that permits clients to focus on, execute and screen their workA multiuser framework allows groups to work simultaneously on a similar venture across the association.Constant detailing gives significant information conveyed quick, either on-request or planned.The dashboard permits clients to deal with a solitary venture or even a portfolio, with incredible adaptability.Primavera P6 coordinates with Prophet and other outsider items.P6 can be utilized on different gadgets, for example, tablets and cell phones for access anyplace and whenever.P6 deals with Windows as a work area (or web application with the Undertaking choice).
CONSThe convoluted connection point of Prophet's Primavera P6 additionally turns obsolete and not upward to the plan and usability of its opposition.There's a precarious expectation to learn and adapt; not at all like different instruments, it can require as long as 40 hours to settle in on the gadget and that is with the utilization of specific coaches.Primavera P6 is for Windows just, which puts Macintosh clients vulnerable, making the instrument promptly restricted and denying entire businesses that sudden spike in demand for Apple items.P6 is awkward for more modest and less complex ventures, apparently intrigued exclusively in the bigger undertaking area.The client care could be better, essentially there is a great deal of jabber online from clients who feel the help needs to get to the next level.

The best and only project management and planning
I have been using Oracle Primavera for more than three years and it is great software with many great features that can help project managers and planners schedule any project and also work with multiple projects at the same time.
PROSThis is my daily use of software as a project manager, this software has every feature required for project scheduling and tasking. The most important feature of Oracle Primavera is that it works depending on databases so you can work on many projects at the same time. I like the way it creates the critical path of a schedule and give you all the important calculations that you need automatically based on any updates or changes on the schedule.
CONSThis application is great and must be used by any project manager or planner but it is very expensive.

Better thatn Scheduling
I use the P6 version of Primavera on a daily basis allowing me to maintain record of all milestones, resources and material needed on my projects. The many ways of reporting data, showing completed work, work in progress and progress completed it is very useful to keep track of the actual things happening at your project. Baselines are used to keep track of how a project has changed since day one, and re-baselining is so easy to do. The manpower can be entered and reported knowing how many employees are assigned to a specific line item.
PROSpowerful, multiple ES-FS, LS-ES, and many more ways of scheduling

Getting a job done in multiple sectors has never been this easy
It saves so much time from keying in entries and it is easy to teach older managers to use because of the ease of use. It just makes sense
PROSThis product allows me to work with people who work in different segmentation in our industry seamlessly on each and every project. It's so easy.. its a no brainer really. Approval processes are easy, everything is simple. If there is ever any kind of issue it has been resolved with in moments of reaching out to tech support. I also was able to teach myself this program which is always a bonus.
CONSExporting software to other platforms is hard. for our all employee meetings it is difficult to show some processes and such with ease. A mobile platform would also be beneficial to our company

I use it most for tracking the progress of over 500 road construction project. I find it great for reporting to the board. It's really easy to arrange data you want to see on your screen and report from that set of data.

CONSImport and export functions is kind of basic, it would be more useful if there are greater options.

PROSGreat program with featured packed for everything that is required to schedule. We did also linked it up to REVIT so the schedule and the 3D model can work together and show the build up.
CONSA long learning curve but once you figure out the short cuts then this program is awesome.

It allows me to follow the planning process related to my work very well, clarify and correct the deficiencies. It is a program that I have been using since the beginning of my student period and it is an easy to understand and detailed program in terms of basic usage.
CONSThe only problem I've had for a long time is that I have to keep up to date with the exchange rates, and I have to constantly follow and update them.

It worked for what we needed
We used Primavera primarily for Project Management. Submittals, Pay Apps, Transmittals. For the most part it was great. Especially once you got used to the system (It was not user friendly to all). The software was dependent on a particular version of IE and you could NEVER update your JAVA ever! Otherwise, it just wouldn't work. In the early years (before Oracle) the customer service was fantastic. However, since Oracle took over, the customer service has been terrible. We have since switched to a different software.
PROSIt managed documents very well. Once used to the system and formats it was easy to use. Early on customer support was amazing.
CONSCurrent customer support by Oracle is terrible. EI and Java could never be updated otherwise the software would not function.

P6 - Versatile and Useful
P6 is a powerful project management software that allows users to plan any size project. Because this software is cloud based, it allows users from all over to collaborate seamlessly. It makes project planning much simpler. From resource management, GANTT charts, activity tracking, it takes a lot of the work out of project tracking.
CONSSometimes P6 can be a little finicky to work with regarding Dates and activities. The only issue we have had is in regards to dates getting a little haywire from time to time. More often than not, it is user error with schedules, but it can be tricky to track down.

Powerful, sometimes overwhelming
This is a very robust, very powerful software. Currently only really use it for tracking schedule and projecting cash flow, but it can do a lot more. Capable of doing very complex CPM with all the tools and needs to track impacts, logic, changes, resources, estimates, actuals and so forth.
CONSBeing powerful, it is a lot to learn to be proficient in the software. Not very intuitive and sometimes takes a lot of investigation to figure out why something isn't coming out they way you thought it would.

Powerful project management software
Once you complete one project planning using this software, chance are you will prefer this software forever.
PROS- very powerful and have different features, - it's oldest and well know in the industry - owned by one of giant company Oracle, so the product will continue, once you know how to your knowledge will not be obsolete.
CONS- unlike other project management software it's not user friendly, so you have to learn the software probably it would take some time - expansive
