Discover the notable differences between the two project management software to decide which platform is right for your business.
The Primavera P6 Enterprise Project Portfolio Management (P6 EPPM) offers large-scale enterprise solutions for planning, managing and executing projects. It can handle projects of various complexities and sizes.
Primavera P6 Professional Project Management (P6 PPM), on the other hand, is more suitable for standalone, less complex projects that do not require extensive collaboration and integration.
So, whether a business should invest in either the P6 EPPM or P6 PPM will depend on the size of their teams, project requirements, and other factors. Making the right choice will help improve workforce productivity and maximise ROI.
The P6 PPM is an on-premise project management solution as it is only available as a desktop application. On the other hand, P6 EPPM can be accessed remotely or on-premise as it is web-based. This allows multiple teams to access the platform anytime and from anywhere.
P6 PPM allows only project managers and schedulers to use the platform. P6 EPPM accommodates a broader range of users, including executives, project managers, portfolio managers, team members and other stakeholders, to access, collaborate and manage multiple projects.
P6 PPM offers limited project management capabilities, such as creating project schedules and tracking progress. P6 EPPM, on the other hand, offers a more comprehensive suite of project management features that allow users to prioritise, select and optimise complex projects.
P6 PPM has limited collaboration features at the project level, and users need additional tools to manage projects. P6 EPPM can be integrated with other enterprise systems and encourages sharing the workload by supporting multi-user collaboration within and across projects.

The project does not start until the new year, but given the excellent service thus far, I am highly confident it will not have any issues with the network connectivity setup."
