Oracle Primavera P6
Tier A ยท ListedOracle's critical-path scheduling and project portfolio software
Primavera P6 is Oracle's project scheduling line: P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management (EPPM), which Oracle offers on-premises or in the cloud, and the desktop P6 Professional. Oracle's documentation describes P6 Professional as designed for large-scale, multifaceted projects, with unlimited resources and target plans. Both products are documented up to version 26.
Pros
- + Critical-path scheduling with unlimited resources and target plans (per Oracle)
- + Portfolio and multi-project planning in P6 EPPM
- + P6 EPPM runs on-premises or in Oracle's cloud
- + Current release (version 26) documented on docs.oracle.com
Cons
- โ No public prices: quote from Oracle or a partner
- โ Built for professional planners; a learning curve for occasional users
- โ More than a small firm's job schedule needs
- โ Scheduling only: no accounting or VAT
United Arab Emirates note
If a client contract specifies the programme format or scheduling software, confirm the requirement before you buy. P6 handles scheduling only, so VAT records and invoicing stay in your accounting system.
