Where Primavera P6 wins
Industry standard for mega-projects
P6 is an accepted standard on many mega-projects. Government contracts and Tier 1 contractors often mandate P6.
Resource levelling depth
P6's resource levelling, multi-calendar support, and earned value calculations are the deepest in the industry.
Proven on the world's largest projects
Airports, dams, highways, mining — P6 has scheduled them all. The track record is unmatched.
Where TaskRox wins
Right-sized for mid-market
P6 is often more scheduling system than a mid-market team needs. TaskRox gives you CPM scheduling that follows P6 logic — without the complexity, cost, or training overhead.
Full platform, not just scheduling
P6 is a scheduler. TaskRox has 49 platform features — documents, RFIs, QA, HSE, diary, budget, Kanban, messaging, and more.
Mid-market right-sized pricing
TaskRox is priced per billable user in AUD with no enterprise sales process. P6's buying model is often the wrong shape for mid-market teams.
Modern web UI
TaskRox runs in the browser. P6's web interface is dated; the desktop app requires installation and training.
Self-serve
No Oracle sales process. Sign up now. Start scheduling today.
Choose Primavera P6 if
You're on a mega-project where P6 is contractually mandated, you need resource levelling across hundreds of resources, or your client requires native P6 .xer file exchange.
Choose TaskRox if
You're managing mid-market projects and P6 is overkill. You want CPM scheduling plus the rest of the delivery platform in one place. You want your whole team on one platform — not just the planner.
Switching path
TaskRox supports P6 (.xer/.xml) schedule import. Bring your programme across and gain an entire project management platform around it.
