Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Does anyone know of a governing body that has done a recent analysis on Risk Software? My planning tool is P3e and its recommended Primavera risk tools are Pertmaster and Risk Decisions Predict. Has anyone compared both products?

Thankyou. I already have Predict and Pertmaster loaded, I was just trying to confirm my doubts.
More to follow when I finish my evaluation.

If you want to experience Pertmaster, a demo is available for download from their web site

These products are completely different. Pertmaster is a full planning system with risk included - it reads P3/P3e files to create a risk plan. Predict is a spreadsheet, so it reads P3 and creates a plan in an Excel-like format (so it cannot do any resource levelling). I have not seen any direct comparisons but the premises are so different one would be difficult. See PMT reviews for more info (I have written 2 on Pertmaster).
