RE: Primavera Vs MS-Project whichone is better?
Though I haven't worked on any of these, based on whatever I have heard from experienced people, Primevera is much better than MS Project.
MS Project is a very basic tool, where as Primevera is much more professional, versatile and more accepted in European states.
This is just a rough opinion, so please confirm with some Project Managers you may know.

Project is very user friendly whereas Primavera is not.
I've been in the business for along time and can say that from a design standpoint, Project is all that I ever needed. That is not, however, what I got. Management decided to make Primavera standard company software due to our involvement in the construction management industry. So now each project, even the simplest, must be programed into the montrous Primavera.
To its credit, Primevera will handle multiple projects with thousands and thousands of tasks.

Primavera is very entrenched in the construction and EPC industries, although the recent upheaval in the EPC business will soon lay waste to any entrenched ideas and tools. I have not been able to sit an engineer down and get him to pick up Primavera and run with it, despite (or because of) its limitless flexibility. Professional schedulers an dsome PM's have no problem with it, and may have taken formal classes in Primavera.
On the other hand, even senior engineers (the slowest learners) can pick up MS project and document what their schedules look like. Soon they can baseline a project and track changes, as well as assign blame for delays (they love this) using the tracking Gant and notes features.
My vote goes to MS Project, not becuase of power or features, but due to its sucess in getting used on actual projects.

Project is less complex and works well for small projects and simple controls/reporting.
There is a new product/service on the market called MOCA Systems. Take a look at their web site www.mocasystems.com
I think it came out of MIT and usually modules to build schedules and load with resources needed to build the facility.
