What's new in P6

 

Almost all functionality of the thick client version is now available on the Web. This does not apply to all administrative functions, which means that you need to buy and install at least one thick client version of P6. Here is a list of a few Newby's of P6:
      • New layout
      • Reflection Projects
      • Fragnets
      • Ability to define templates and standards for layouts and views (including dashboards)
      • Highly effective navigation
      • Includes now almost all functions of the thick client
      • Flexible and dynamic Gantt chart

 

Some Shortcomings of the Web Version

 

While in the significantly enhanced product the positive definitely outweighs the shortcomings, there are a few of those. Some of the following points seem already be addressed by Primavera with their next service packs.  

§  Only one project can be opened at a time

§  Only up to 5000 activities can be open at any one time

§  Some administrative functions still require the installation of the thick client
