    We use Oracle ERP and are happy with it. We have long-standing relationship with Oracle and our workforce is well versed with it. We wanted a high-end scalable software for construction projects and Primavera fits the bill. Payment systems like Textura can be easily integrated …

    I have also used Microsoft Project in the past to do scheduling. While easier to use than Primavera, it does not have the same capabilities to determine CPM. Furthermore, it would not be appropriate for larger sized projects.

    I did not select Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management. It was an inherent application. Having used other applications, compared to those, Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is a far superior tool for portfolio management. However, in the span of the last 10 years, there …

    I found Oracle Primavera better compared to Clarity as it offers better navigation. The reporting feature is also better in Primavera. The views provided by Primavera are far better compared to Clarity.

    Primavera allows several users to work in a single file at the same time. This allows the team to develop and update the project schedule for reporting much faster. Also, the user can see updates that effect logically link activities in the future easily. MS Project does not.

    Oracle
    Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is a utilitarian product of a yesteryear gone by. It's straightforward and to the point. It is well suited for a customer base who is not interested in frills, portability, or a multitude of OOTB ability. It's for those who like to restrict and manage all control over users, code in queries, functions, and create customized reports for end users. It does what it does very well however, just do not expect it to be pretty. It's a 2007 product, so curb your excitement. It does handle all aspects of portfolio management well; financials, budgeting, spend plans, contracts, projects, staffing, workflows, etc... however, it is not intuitive to navigate, and will require some training.

    Pros
    Oracle
    • Primavera as a scheduling software can manage large project schedules regardless of complexity.
    • P6 is powerful enough to identify the longest pathway to the completion of a project. This is also known as CPM.
    • P6 can handle multiple scenarios and save them as a separate baseline schedule. This can be helpful for figuring theoretical sequences.

    Cons
    Oracle
    • The software is high end with rich features, hence its rich price.
    • There is room for improvement in their customer service.
    • Oracle is doing its best in coming up with new features, and has a planned roadmap. It would be good if the enhancements are delivered faster.

    Oracle is better laid out and has more functionality as well as end-user flow. The login process, billing, and construction management features are easy to find, easy to use, and helpful. The limitations on Quickbooks restrict users from the ability to view and bill full contracts if broken down, to track and show % complete. Procore is confusing.

    Return on Investment
    Oracle
    • P6 is critical to the execution of all of our projects. Without it we would have less control of our projects.
    • One of our key business objectives is to deliver projects on time or ahead of schedule. P6 supports us in this goal and allows our superintendents to manage complicated construction projects.
