description The present paper main objective is to put forward two software application tools: Microsoft Project 2013 and Oracle Primavera P6 Professional, used for the management process planning, especially for industrial projects. Second goals is to compare some feature of the two software and emphasize some aspects used for an easier use. The presentation and comparison considered four small processes with a total of 38 activities. The two software are used for the leveling of seven labor resources defined for the achievement of the activities. The results of the analyzes point out that even the two tools have the same purpose, Microsoft Project can be used for general simple to average processes’ complexity and size, Oracle Primavera has more specialized possibilities (libraries and specific project plans) and more possibilities to model the actions needed for better leveling.
