Oracle Primavera P6

Tier A ยท Listed

Oracle's project scheduling and portfolio management software

Oracle Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management (P6 EPPM) is Oracle's software for planning, scheduling and managing projects, programs and portfolios. Oracle's documentation says it runs on-premises or in the cloud, and version 26 is the newest release in its library. It is built for large, schedule-driven projects, not for small-firm admin or accounting. Oracle also sells a separate cloud product, Oracle Primavera Cloud.

Pros

  • + Plans and schedules projects, programs and portfolios
  • + On-premises or cloud deployment
  • + Actively updated (version 26 in Oracle's library)
  • + Handles portfolios, not only single projects

Cons

  • โˆ’ No public price found this run; quote from Oracle or a partner
  • โˆ’ Scheduling and project control only, not accounting or ERP
  • โˆ’ More than a small contractor needs for simple jobs
  • โˆ’ Takes trained planners to run well

Bahrain note

Mainly worth it when a Bahrain client or main contractor asks for schedules in P6 format. It does not handle invoicing, VAT or bookkeeping, so pair it with an accounting tool.

Typical Bahrain pricing: Quote-based through Oracle or a partner; no price could be confirmed on Oracle's pages this run.

PlanRadar

Tier S ยท Published prices

Site documentation, defect and snagging app with published prices

PlanRadar, made by PlanRadar GmbH of Vienna, is an app for site documentation, defects, snagging and inspections on plans and BIM models. It publishes per-user prices and a 30-day free trial, and runs UAE English and Arabic sites. PlanRadar says it has over 200,000 users across 75+ countries; no Gulf office address is listed.

Pros

  • + Published per-user prices and a 30-day free trial
  • + Unlimited subcontractors and watchers on every plan
  • + Arabic-language UAE site
  • + Defects and snagging tracked on digital plans

Cons

  • โˆ’ No Gulf office address listed
  • โˆ’ Field and QA focus, not accounting or ERP
  • โˆ’ Per-user cost grows with the team
  • โˆ’ Starter and Pro plans capped at 10 users

Bahrain note

Easy to trial on one Bahrain project: the 30-day free trial needs no credit card, and subcontractors join free. Support comes from outside Bahrain, as no Gulf office is listed.

Typical Bahrain pricing: Published in USD: Basic $32 a month (one user), Starter $107 and Pro $159 per user per month (each up to 10 users); annual billing saves more than 10%, according to PlanRadar. Enterprise is quote-based. 30-day free trial.
