InEight Schedule vs Oracle Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management

Put any two products side by side: specification, the six criteria and the EPC Index needle.

FIG. 046

InEight Schedule

InEight · Planning, Scheduling & Risk

02040608010073EPC INDEX

A modern, collaborative scheduler that fits well inside InEight's platform, though contract schedules often still need P6 exchange.

FIG. 067

Oracle Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management

Oracle · Planning, Scheduling & Risk

02040608010083EPC INDEX

Still the contractual standard for EPC scheduling. Few projects can avoid it; the question is how well you run it, not whether.
