Re: PMS - MS Project vs Prima Vera and Alternative s

Primavera - choice of bigboys planners working on mega projects.

MS Project - for mere mortals workign on projects with very lmited capital funding.

But really theres no comparison between the two project management softwares. If youre working on a major LSTK project then the application of choice is Primavera. MS Project in this case wont even be able to play catch up and wont be able to communicate with other application the likes of ERP.
