I must agree with you there is nothing more frustrating than having to do your job with a tool that was easy to use and then having to learn another package, for the sake of a company wanting to make much more money on training. blah blah blah.īut in really project situation? DID IT REALLY MAKES A DIFFERENCE? In Primavera manuals, Primavera may say so and so. It would be preferable that this Primavera disciples and apostles can really present a case as to the advantage of P5 vs P6 or P3 vs P5. The P5 / P6 user is strutting like a first class planner devoid of realism as to what the consequence of his actions has on the project.Ī really dont believe this disciples and apostles who degenerated their arguments that "old planners dont want change"

A simple finish date generated after running a schedule was not captured and misrepresented This individuals follows Primavera blindly and they got that emotional high feelings that the new version P6 will give them undue advantage to lesser planners/planning engineers that they are branding them as inferiro to their own league.īeleive me, I encounterede a P5 and P6 users that do not even know what the gantt chart generated by P5 and P6 what it is all about. The worst sceanrio really are the disciples and apostles of Primavera. to feed of Primavera and produce graphs, S curves, spreadsheet and all the standard practice documents that 3.1 use to produce in the standard package and now is a extra and without the complexity of Primavera. The flip side of the coin is that Primavera has been opening a door for other softwares like PDM etc. Unless you are a permanent staff working in a huge company with huge training budgets. Management wants instant results and there is no space for training. The main Planners gripe that is not been passed on to Primavera marketing and design is that when you use a tool and it is working well, why change it completely? It puts huge pressure on the individuals using it. That is definitely a feather in South Africa Primavera agent/distributor’s cap. Thanks for the reply Arthur I am sure the Planners will be impressed that a Primavera supplier reads and keeps up with the forum.
#Primavera p3 process missing from startup license#
I was also referring to when I was In China trying to negotiate a license for 15 network packages and advice and no-one even returned my mail and so the company lost interest and went to another package. I have someone on the case but it is taking time.


I am now in Brazil, which makes it difficult. If I was in SA I would have contacted you in a flash since I have dealt with you since 1989 with little problems.
