What is the difference between p3e and p6

As project stakeholders, beyond just the schedulers, demanded more participation and functionality it became clear early on that the Windows-based environment was not the best platform for the future.

Most Windows software developers who could see the future are not working with Windows developed add-on apps which eventually become primary applications in a web browser environment. This has been a frustrating ride for many P6 Pro users who have had to deal with the evolution of web technology from Java to connectivity to wireless speed or lack thereof….

We have seen some remarkable changes in web technology over the past ten years and as speed and reliability improve every year, software developers will invest in web-based tools. The days of using a Windows-based tool stand alone on a laptop, are numbered because of trends in the overall technology provider and user market. So, the Windows based P6 Pro or any Windows based software tool will eventually come to an end.

How long will that take? I think it could be at least 5 years. Believe it or not, there are still P3 users out there, in caves in Arid-zona I think. I feel very fortunate to have witnessed since , the growth of computer technology to manage projects. One rule I learned is that nothing lasts forever. For technology providers to be successful they need to look to the future and adjust their research.

How is P3e different to P6? Thank you for all you help and advice in advance. Printer-friendly version Login or register to post comments Send to friend. Thu, John Raper. Joined: 17 May Groups: None. P3e runs on a SQL database with shared access. P6 is the latest version. There are not two types of P6.

The database is installed on a server, and that has to have the P6 Server software on it. The P6 Client software is installed on the users PC.

It is possible to install the database on a PC and use it as a single user installation, just to add confusion! Hope this helps with the understanding. Login or register to post comments. James Barnes.
