"Thorough explanation of Primavera's P6 basic features"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Plan Academy?

Their follow-along videos are a very effective way to learn how to use the software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Plan Academy?

What I would have liked to see more of was construction tailored material. But I do realise that many different industries besides the construction industry use P6 so focusing on one industry will be a detriment to the rest of them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very Good Primavera Course for Beginners "
4.5/5
What do you like best about Plan Academy?

The courses broke down all the basics of Primavera to allow you to understand why and how the schedule works in the system. After teaching the basics and key fundamentals of the program, it then let you use those resources to create a schedule from the lessons. I thought it was beneficial that each workshop built upon the previous lesson so that it wasn't overwhelming creating one final schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Plan Academy?

The wording for the questions for the quizzes were unfair at times. There are also so many parts to Primavera that were not discussed in the training. I understand it is for beginner training but I think there should have been mentioning some of the other tools of Primavera that could be used by the users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fabulous course"

This course was easy to navigate, and the exercises were spot on what I needed to learn. I can now use P6 to a much fuller extent to track our projects and our profitability. Our customers will benefit from using P6 much better now that I know more of the ins and outs of the software, Tremendous value for the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Logical and Efficient "
4.5/5
What do you like best about Plan Academy?

Plan Academy takes you step by step through the Primavera software. It builds upon past lessons and creates foundations for you to stand on as you learn new methodologies. Learning the concepts first and applying them to real-world scenarios helps build confidence in ability and promotes critical thinking skills. It is very comprehensive and covers many different aspects of Primavera and project managment in general. They provide resources and guides for many different things in the idustry and have created a thriving responsive community of professionals to interact with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Plan Academy?

There wasn't much to dislike, however, I did find some of the quizzes and questions purposefully misleading. While I understand the need for people to learn to think critically some of the questions felt like "gotcha" questions and I don't feel they helped me as much. This was, however, minor and not that common throughout the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Plan Academy Primavera P6 training is comprehensive"
5/5
What do you like best about Plan Academy?

What I liked best about Plan Academy is their systematic approach to learning P6 and the platform setup. The courses displayed on Dashboard are setup to be accomplished in sequence or as multiple courses within the learning event. You may learn at your on pace. The instructional videos are formatted for a layer building approach allowing pause and rewind so user has ability to cross reference knowledge with software at any time during the session. The community of support is available and very helpful. The library and resources are extensive. Webinars each month to help demonstrate the principles of P6 and the training learned at Plan Academy are discussed in detail with real users and the applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Plan Academy?

I did not find any element within Plan Academy platform that was boring. On the contrary, I found the experience: insightful, thought provoking and at times challenging. It's an excellent way to learn P6. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
