I use @RISK which is typically a add-on to excel with more RISK functions. I use it for Monte Carlo analysis to determine both schedule and estimate contingencies

For schedule I have use Oracle Primavera Risk Analysis and Excel with @risk to integrate schedule (from the other simulation) and financial risk.

Which once is better ? @Risk or PRA (Primavera Risk Analysis) ?

I use Active Risk Manager and Oracle Primavera Risk Analysis, the power to have the analysis & risk history available makes any audit a breeze.

Try Minitab Statistical Software, it's a powerful & easy statistical software that everyone can use.

If you're talking about Monte Carlo itself, my favorite tool is @RISK. It's been around for more than 20 years and the CEO is the original programmer of the 1.0 version, which is something I truly respect. If you're working with schedules, small ones work nicely on @RISK and you can integrate. For bigger schedules, I'd suggest PRA.

I'd echo the support for @Risk. The benefit is that it can leverage existing schedules in MS Project - all you have to do is provide your three point cost & schedule estimates for each activity and let it run its simulations.

Love can sweep you off your feet and carry you along in a way you've never known before. But the ride always ends, and you end up feeling lonely and bitter. Wait. It's not love I'm describing. I'm thinking of a monorail.
