Luckily there will even sooner come a day when P3 will not work on current computers because Primavera chose not to upgrade it to 32 bit technology.

The only one that seems biased on this thread is Bill Joshaf - may be good for a reaction, but no details have been given of how badly he was treated to give rise to the spleen being vented.

As Clive says, there appears nothing more to be said on this thread.

There appears to be nothing else to say and closure is apparent.

Sorry Bill,

You are Bill arent you,

Not Charlie,

I get so mixed up with irrational tirades such as yours

After the sentence chill man, in my post that you responded to, read the next sentence. It deals with why I chose to use capitals, or rather why the use of capitals was not shouting.

Agreement with the views of others is not neccessary, but a rational explanation of why you disagree aids the debate.

Frothing at the mouth and casting aspersions is not conducive to moving this forum forward.

Perhaps this is why ASTA gave you a tough time, If of course they did.

Dear Bill

Chill man

I respond to your comments in capitals, but I am not shouting.

"ASTA who don’t care about his customers after sale and never replied in a timely manner all the time not once."

DID YOU EVER ASK THEM AND KEEP GOING TO THE TOP UNTIL YOU GOT A RESPONSE

"Being totally disappointed with such attitude of ASTA especially Michel Mccullen who developed this software, as he claims on his web site , but by copying various planning softwares being as Big Copycat, don’t know how to run the business and how to take care of his existing customers so how can he think that he will defeat P3 in UK."

MY RECOLLECTION IS THAT MR MCULLEN DID IN FACT DEVELOP THE SOFTWARE AND TRIALED IT IN A COMPANY I WORKED FOR OVER 18 YEARS AGO. PRIMAVERA HAVE BOUGHT THE SOFTWARE OF OTHERS WHEN UPGRADING. IS THIS A PROBLEM ? AS TO WHETHER HE CAN RUN A BUSSINESS FACTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES.

"Due to above reasons we recently installed P3 as it is worldclass software throughout the world (mostly all construction site everywhere ) having more care all the time, more helpful, more users, more techniques whereas"

I DO TRUST YOU ARE NOT ATTEMPTING TO RUN P3 ON VISTA AND ALSO REALISE THAT PRIMAVERA ARE MAKING VALIANT EFFORTS TO CEASE THE PRODUCTION OF P3 BY SLASHING AGENTS FEES AND INCREASING THE COST. PRIMAVERA IS OLD HAT, CLUNKY, DIFFICULT TO GET GOOD GRAPHICS FROM, IMPOSSIBLE TO EASILY INTERFACE WITH MOST OTHER SOFTWARE AND NOT DATABASE ADAPTABLE, DO I NEED TO GO ON ABOUT THIS OUTDATED PIECE OF HISTORY. IF YOU HAVE SPENT THE MONEY, THATS SAD, HAVE A GOOD 18 MONTHS OF YOUR INVESTMENT AND, I TRUST YOU DID NOT WRITE THE POSITION PAPER FOR PURCHASE, OR YOUR IT MAN WILL BE LOOKING FOR YOU SOON.

ASTA has limited approach to only a few companies in a few parts of UK … limited users.

MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT ASTA IS THE SOFTWARE OF CHOICE FOR OVER HALDF THE CONTRACTORS IN THE UK

Therefore it is advisable to all who have any intention to buy or change planning software or do ASTA planning courses, never go with ASTA please …… always go with others software ……..Others have better future for you than ASTA throughout the world.

A SAD COMMENTARY ON A PIECE OF GOOD SOFTWARE!!!!!!

Bill, I aplogise that my comments are in capitals but it is an attempt to respond without the ability to change the font.

Your rationale seems flawed and your explanation as to why ASTA is the not the software for you lacks substance.

My experience of this forum is that if you have a problem, in all liklehood some one out their will have an answer for you.

Notwithstanding all of this, why have you posted here and not on the Power Project forum.???
