The discussion should be limited to ORACLE products

Planning Planet is already a for profit site as it has a deal with Oracle to provide resources in exchange of some representation for policing the site. Obviously Oracle will interfere with the discussion and might ban comments from others against Oracle Products while allowing comments against the other products.

If Oracle has economic interest in this forum then the discussion should be limited to their products.

Does that makes Planning Planet and or Oracle liable to other vendors as they are sponsoring and controlling what is said in the forum regarding the discussion about the other software products?

    Look under the Heading of this site, click the ORACLE letering in red and you will read about how Planning Planet is in commercial agreement with ORACLE.

    Seems like already a done deal.

    Hi Rafael,

    I know as much as you about this but your comment:

    "Obviously Oracle will interfere with the discussion and might ban comments from others against Oracle Products while allowing comments against the other products."

    Seems to me a very large assumption on your part.

    I read nothing in the posting to suggest Oracle would be given moderator rights to change or delete messages they do not like.

    As I understand it, Oracle are merely the first corporate sponsors for Planning Planet. If Asta, Deltek, Microsoft, etc want the same benefits (whatever they might be) as Oracle, I’m sure they would be welcome to subscribe too.

    Regards,

    Gary

    Gary,
    did you notice:

    Oracle have shown a truly innovative spirit in supporting us and I see the move of equal benefit to both parties, especially in view of developing an Accreditation Process for Planners and Project Controllers - knowledge of the Primavera platform is an integral part of an Accreditation Process the subject most dear to Planning Planet itself.

    Best Regards,
    Vladimir

    Actually, it should be

    "Primavera or Equivalent" (in terms of functionality)

    Gary, any comments??

    Raviraj & Vladimir:

    I made my original post before reading the bigger thread on this topic started by Mike. -I’ve now commented on that thread on the points you both raise. Probably best if we just follow that one rather than splitting the discussino between 2 threads.

    Cheers,

    I’m hoping if this will become a reality, a truly die hard primavera expers can answers my queries.

    I really don’t know how to prepared reports, cutoms to my needs.

    At least with Oracle/Primavera experts on board PP, it will be a relief in deciphering the technically of Primavera as stated in the P6 manuals.

    This will also usher a new era, for the truly professional planning engineers. It may discriminate the fly by night planners.

    Thank you,
    Scarlett

    Hi,

    We have closed this topic so that any Oracle related discussion is held in a single place; under the Oracle Merger thread.

    Hope this is OK.
