Primavera allows the ability to create, manipulate and modify a large number of activities for proper viewing in the project management environment. It is hard to beat P6 as a project management tool for planning, scheduling, and overall management of a project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Like other comprehensive and powerful tools, there is a learning curve to using the application, which requires training to master. It is hard to fault P6 for the features it provides, and I am sure further iterations of the program will improve on an already great product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Primavera allows us to carry out extensive management on all our projects. We are able to assess the risk, make a sound budget and initiate a planning face that helps the efficient facilitation of all projects. It's real time reporting and analytics feature is really reliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The time required to input all data, fiddling around with data dates means that you cannot input projects that have already started. Not great when deployment is being done part way through the year. Lack of options to customize project lifecycle. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

P6, as it is now named and used for decades, originates from P3 - Primavera Project Planner, initially DOS, then becoming WINDOWS application, generated to support Project Managers since early days in 1982. This long-lasting tradition makes it bugs-free and reliable, robust, and most of all - fit for purpose, widely used by planning practitioners who do not want a toy or a drawing tool, but the real-life support for their work and their valuable projects or clients.

The feeling of mimicking some other, cheaper and not-so-versatile, but declared as "not so difficult like P6" software, makes it inclining to the market of non-professionals. The use of terms like "Start" and "Finish" that is understandable and suitable "for dummies" instead of "Early Start" and "Early Finish" tends to bring it closer to the general public. An average user of Office App is not by any means the target user of any serious application, neither having the need nor the knowledge of any planning process or techniques.
