Enhanced cost tracking and project oversight for large-scale implementations
What is our primary use case?
Our primary use case for Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management was during a period when we deployed it for five or six years. We were actively using it without any other tools. It was mainly for managing projects, specifically in the construction and installation phases of instrumentation and controls.
How has it helped my organization?
Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management helped in tracking costs effectively. The cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structures were integrated into their system, making it easier to track costs. This structure allowed me to maintain oversight over budgets while engineers managed tasks and milestones.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features were the cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structure. Additionally, it was considered easy to integrate and secure, and it seemed more suitable for large-scale projects compared to Microsoft Project . It provided me with better control over tracking costs and ensured that tasks and milestones were properly managed by engineers.
What needs improvement?
There is a need for improvement in the interfacing and possibly better integration with other programs. The software could benefit from enhancements that make it more user-friendly for various tasks.
For how long have I used the solution?
I am not sure if we are using it right now, but we had used it around ten years ago.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The usage in our environment was limited, as each engineer managed their own projects, making decisions on whether to use Microsoft Project or Primavera.
How are customer service and support?
Oracle's customer service was good. They supported us during the implementation phase, and whatever integrations we required at the time were well-handled.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We had three systems: Maximo , Primavera, and SAP. I would rate them in order of preference as Maximo , Primavera, then SAP. SAP was more challenging to integrate, often requiring custom programming.
How was the initial setup?
During the setup, my role was to instruct the team to establish a computer maintenance management system. They had the option to choose what they felt comfortable with. In terms of software choice, Primavera was selected for project tracking.
What about the implementation team?
The team members to answer the question of implementation would be better suited as it wasn't directly my task.
What was our ROI?
In terms of return on investment, Primavera was more intuitive for large-scale projects compared to alternatives like Microsoft Project.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Primavera appears to be more expensive than Microsoft Project but potentially less than Maximo. Pricing details from ten years ago are not committed to memory, and I would have to refer back to documentation.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Other solutions we evaluated or used included Microsoft Project and SAP.
What other advice do I have?
Overall, I would rate Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management as an eight out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?
Efficient project planning with advanced impact and delay analysis features
What is our primary use case?
I am an end user of Primavera, not a developer. I am a project planner, and Primavera is a tool I use as a project planner. We use it for specific major projects where the client specifies that they need Primavera.
How has it helped my organization?
It helps in planning for large projects. It is very, very good in planning for large projects.
What is most valuable?
I use many features, including baseline, which I use regularly. It is used to analyze the impact of changes in the project. Delay analysis and extension of time claims are some of the key features.
What needs improvement?
It can be integrated for four-dimensional modeling, which is already happening with another company. Right now, it is produced as an independent product and does not have any three-dimensional interface. There is scope for development in integrating with some AI products.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Primavera for more than ten years now.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Primavera is pretty stable, I would say. I have no complaints.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Primavera is very scalable. I would rate it eight out of ten.
How was the initial setup?
I am not the person who is setting it up. It is done by the IT department.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The company I work for is trying to cut down on cost on software, so they are not going to increase the number of users because we use it for specific major projects.
What other advice do I have?
You need to have a good understanding of project management before you build programs using P6. Learning the tool takes time, so you should spend hands-on time with it while developing your project management skills. It's a mix of hands-on work and project management skills.
I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.
Needs to improve its extremely complicated user interface while ensuring the addition of functions in the future
What is our primary use case?
I think Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is a well-engineered product from an IT perspective. With the product's user interface and from an end user's perspective, it is a very complicated tool, especially for those in the early stages of their profession involved in project management.
What is most valuable?
In terms of operation management and project management, the product needs to have a lot of functions to work together to get the right results you need for the project. The solution's interface should be able to track changes and the implementation time. Basically, we need many tools in our company, among which Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is a time planning tool for us, and maybe, in some cases, we use it for the Gantt chart.
What needs improvement?
The solution's user interface is an area with shortcomings that need improvement.
I would like more additional functions added to the solution in future releases.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management for a few weeks. I don't remember the exact version of the solution.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Stability can be measured when you use something a lot of times or maybe continuously, but I didn't use the solution for a long period, so I can't judge the solution's stability.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is not a scalable solution.
I and one of my colleagues were the ones involved with the solution in our company.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup of Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is complex.
The solution can be deployed in an hour.
I don't think that those who are entry-level users who use computers can do the deployment alone. Advanced users who are used to using or installing the solution by themselves can do the solution's deployment.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
My company has made an annual payment towards the costs of the solution. Price-wise, the solution is okay.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
Before choosing Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management, my company had evaluated only three products.
What other advice do I have?
I won't recommend the solution to the staff at my company because I know how it can hinder their work since they will spend a lot of time trying to figure out what they can do with the solution. Some people are satisfied with the solution since they are used to it. Personally, I would not recommend the solution to others.
I rate the overall solution a three and a half out of ten.
It helps us track progress and results
What is our primary use case?
I work for an engineering and construction company that uses Primavera for project planning and management. We use it in specific projects when clients request it.
How has it helped my organization?
Primavera helps us track project progress and results.
What is most valuable?
I like Primavera's planning capabilities.
What needs improvement?
Primavera could be better integrated with other products, and it needs more cost management features.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have used Primavera for more than 10 years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Primavera is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The on-prem version we are using is scalable enough, but we're planning to upgrade to the cloud for greater scalability.
How are customer service and support?
We don't use Oracle technical support because we have experienced users.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management nine out of 10. I recommend using the cloud version.
The initial setup is straightforward and the solution is stable.
What is our primary use case?
We are infrastructure companies that manage all critical projects and their capital expenditures using Primavera Portfolio Management. Our main advantage is that we have the authority to sign off on projects because we have the budget and CapEx information in the system. This allows us to streamline the flow of signatures with our contractors.
What is most valuable?
The ability to streamline the process of obtaining signatures from our contractors is valuable.
What needs improvement?
When using Primavera Portfolio Management, we need to have resources on the ground who are familiar with the system. However, there is a shortage of such resources in the market. This is one of the biggest challenges we face. It is not easy to find qualified candidates, even if we post a job on a platform like LinkedIn. I am looking for techno-functional or even techno resources, but there are only a few in the market. This is a big challenge.
Oracle does not provide enterprise-level asset management with IBM Maximo. This means that we need to integrate the two systems, which is a costly and time-consuming process. Integration with non-Oracle systems, such as IBM Maximo, is also challenging and expensive. As a result, the only viable option is to integrate the systems at the database level, which is not ideal.
The scalability has room for improvement.
I would like to see the cost of integration reduced.
I would like to receive Oracle's integration requirements so that I do not have to purchase separate modules from them.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management for five years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability depends on how the database is configured. A database that can be configured and scaled can come at a price, as it requires affordable hardware. The perspective of scalability also depends on the specific use case. For example, Oracle cannot be used to host asset management. My team recently migrated from IBM Maximo to Oracle, but we reached a point where we could not go beyond a certain number of assets. This is because Oracle has a weakness in its query performance when dealing with large amounts of data.
How are customer service and support?
The quality of technical support varies by case. Some issues are resolved quickly, while others have taken up to two months.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Neutral
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is straightforward, but it becomes more complex when we factor in actual business requirements.
What about the implementation team?
We implemented the solution in-house.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The solution itself is cost-effective. The expense comes with the integration. For example, the cost of opening the API in Oracle is the same as the cost of Oracle licenses. This is why we did not start integration on our database when we started the evaluation. However, we need the API for everything to run smoothly. Another example is the masking module over our CapEx values. We need this module if we want management to see the figures. It costs $100,000 per year.
What other advice do I have?
I give Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management an eight out of ten.
We have around 600 total users.
We have two administrators that maintain the solution.
We definitely plan to increase our usage of Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management as the company grows. However, there is a concern about how to continue. One option is to purchase the full stack from Oracle, but this is not a cheap option. It is a challenge, but we may be able to afford it if we are willing to pay an additional fee. We would need to run the database and our application in a separate environment because it cannot run on the CC. This is a challenge. In order to get the most out of Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management, we need to stick to Oracle's offer. However, this is not a cheap option. For the current situation, with around 600 users to 100 users internally, it will cost us at least $200,000 per year, not including the license.
For organizations with a single standalone box, it is easy to implement Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management. However, for enterprise organizations with multiple stacks running asset management and another stack running financials, the integration will take time and cost money. To be transparent with management, we need a full overview. To achieve this goal, we need to make our OpEx and CapEx transparent in advance.
