| Not sure how many people on here deal with Primavera software. I am a scheduler so I work with it a lot. But Oracle is buying Primavera out. I sure hope that they dont -1) Jack the price of the software up even higher than it already is 2) I hope they don't ruin V6.1, which in my opinion is the best version yet!!!!!!! http://news.cnet.com/8301-1001_3-10060866-92.html?part=rss&subj=news&tag=2547-1_3-0-5 Here's the link to the story

Primavera is the required project planning/management software for a lot of Federal operations. Don't be suprised if the price jumps significantly with future versions.

Oracle has been buying various software companies in diffent industries for the last several years - they were going to buy our (energy software) company but opted for our competitor instead. Typically they buy companies that operate on oracle database backend software but I don't believe primavera uses oracle as a data store (but they do have an sdk and believe they use some sort of sql compliant storage). Probably not a lot of change in store for primavera since they are pretty mature - maybe a little tighter integration with other oracle backend apps for timekeeping and things that would normally integrate with project management software.

We use Primavera at Solutia for overhaul planning. I haven't personally had much exposure to it. I used Microsoft Project on the few occasions that I planned and tracked an overhaul. There are a few planners out there that use Primavera frequently. Hopefully this won't cause another change in programs for them.
