From my experience with Artemis you have to distinquish between the Artemis database tools (9000 and 7000 which are extremely powerful relational database tools), from the products called Artemis Views and Artemis Project Views. The two distinct offerings from Artemis can cause mis-inderstandings if people are not aware of the above. Guy
Artemis is much, much more than a scheduling tool.
In its raw state it is a relational database which can be used to produce and analyse CPM. But that is only the tip of the iceberg, where you go from there is up to the individual (never got it to make tea though).
Who can remember switching your machine on and all you got was a blank screen with a "*" prompt, and you had to invent everything from there, Ah the memories.
Lost a lot of ground when P3 was released on Windows platform and until recently didnt keep up with the advance in technology, however the latest products are now looking more like the familiar windows products.
Spider Project is most functional and powerful professional project management software.
The first SP version was launched in 1993 and since then it has been constantly improved. Today is used in 34 countries though most Spider Project customers are in Russia. Spider Project offers numerous unique functional features and is the only PM software that optimizes resource, cost, and material constrained schedules and budgets for projects and portfolios.
The unique features of Spider Project include Quantity Based Scheduling, Conditional Scheduling, Skill Scheduling, Optimal Resource, Cost and Material Leveling, Resource Critical Path Calculation, Cash and Material Flows Calculation and Management, Trend Analysis, Advanced Risk Simulation and Analysis, Calculation of Success Probability Trends, Calculation and Management of required Project Time and Cost Buffers, Application of Corporate Norms, Management of many Parallel Budgets, Multiple WBS and many others.
Spider Project was and is used for management of many large scale programs in Russia, including $51bln construction program for 2014 Winter Olympic Games preparation.
The application areas where Spider Project is successfully used include Aerospace, Banking, Construction, Defense, Energy, Engineering, Infrastructure, Manufacturing, Metallurgy, Mining, Oil & Gas, Railways, Retail, Shipbuilding, Software Development, Telecommunications, Utilities, etc.

Create Radically Better Construction Schedules with ALICE Technologies
Use the power of AI to create construction schedules that reduce risk while cutting costs and build time. With ALICE, develop the ideal schedule during preconstruction -- or recover projects that are off schedule and over budget.

Artemis as well as Primavera P3 is a scheduling tools.
More than P3 has a cost application well developed, where you can integrate costs and schedule.
It was well used few years ago in particular way in the offshore industry, for what I know.
But the real difference is that with Artemis you can aggregate different levels of resources.
I mean can set up a resource level 1 composed by resources level 2.
Level 1: CONCRETE 1 m3 1000$
---------------------------
Level 2: CEMENT 300kg x 1$/kg = 300$
SAND 150kg x 2$/kg = 300$
AGGREGATE 200kg x .5$/kg = 100$
BATCH PLANT 3hr x 100$/hr = 300$
And you can have idea of any material requirement at level 2.
With a such kind of structure analysing variance in cost and quantities is easy … isn’t it?
