P3 started life as a DOS program 24 years ago. As Marcio has said, and contrary to what Bijaya and Ahmed have said, there is definitely no such thing as "P3 Ver. To try and clarify as simply as possible. Some of the other people on this website are Dealers and knew about this sometime back in 2008. I am surprised that I have to be the one to tell you this I am not a Primavera Dealer. I have heard word that Primavera is selling it directly but I also was told by someone that when they called Primavera customer support to order it, that they were unable to process credit cards at the time.įinally, Contractor Lite (the 750 activity, low cost version) is also no longer for sale.

The only thing that Primavera is willing to sell to you (at full price) is an emailed text file that you can load on to your existing P3 system that will grant you more users.īy the way, SureTrak is no longer available in the stores. The simple truth is that you cannot purchase a new package of P3 software. Primavera did sell new P3 packages to customers with orders dated prior to 2009 up to February 15, 2009, but that policy is now over as well. Primavera broke their public promise to sell and support P3 for as long as their customers wanted to purchase it. SureTrak is still being sold by Primavera representatives.Īll Primavera representatives have been fully aware of the pricing, configuration and policy changes since before their inception in the middle of February. (At the same time, the available P6 configurations were also changed and simplified.)ģ. Except where Primavera reps still have existing stock, there is now only one version of Primavera Contractor, the one that was previously called Contractor Deluxe. They no longer need to contact Primavera if they want to change configurations.Ģ. While that needs more attention to "housekeeping", some P6 users have found the flexibility the new system gives them convenient. It is up to the user to ensure that they are using the product in accordance with what they have purchased. Licence/serial numbers fall away and the licence key file may be used for any installation of any size. The reference to a "text file" is presumably the generic licence key file that is also the system being used for P6. But any existing user may purchase any number of P3 licences, in any configuration including "standalone". That is, an entity that has never ever purchased P3 previously. It is correct that P3 is not sold to NEW users. Some while back Primavera committed to that until at least the end of 2010 and that has not changed. P3 is still supported, for those under Maintenance (now called Support, the word used by Oracle).
