Estimation tool for software development projectsEstimatorPal is a software tool that assists software developers estimate the effort required to be spent on various activities during development of software in an audit able manner. It facilitates all the four aspects of estimation, namely - Size Estimation, Effort Estimation , Cost Estimation and Schedule Estimation - yes, Schedule too. What is more it facilitates Test Points Estimation and Software Size Units (SSU) estimation - Here are the only tools that facilitate SSU and Test Points Estimation! Another unique feature of this tool is Task Based Estimation useful for part-life-cycle projects and maintenance projects. The software is extremely easy to use with intuitive interface conforming to best GUI practices of the industry. It needs very little training - less than one hour to be able to start using it. All the formulas, conforming to internationally accepted ones, are in built and there is no need to memorize them by heart.

It also assists in collating a repository of estimates over a period of usage. This tool facilitates making a new estimate thru copying an existing one and modifying it. Thus is a time and effort saving tool resulting in decreasing pressure on the valuable time of Project Managers / Leaders and leads to better productivity in general. What is more, it is very economically priced!! It is being gainfully used by organizations that or ISO 9000 certified or CMM assessed in India, Singapore and USA. EstimatorPal also facilitates making a new estimate from an existing estimate - thus improving estimation productivity greatly.
