difficulty based time estimation software [closed]

Question

Some months ago I found a project-management / time-estimation software that would ask you to sort out your tasks in terms of difficulty (1, 2 or 3) and would then estimate the time you would take to deploy.

The system would auto-adapt as you were working.

I've forgot the software name. For the past days I've been digging emails and searching Google with no results.

Can anyone pin the software name by my description?

Its not http://www.fogcreek.com (though I've found it to be a great piece of software.

Thank you in advance.

Answer 1

After almost a year and 1/2 I've found the exact same page I had seen the day before asking this question.

All in all what I saw was LiquidPlanners estimation in ranges and, probably during sleep, I've come to think of it as something completely different.

Answer 2

Could it be "Construx Estimate" from Steve McConnell?

Answer 3

How about a software that would allow you to estimate a commitment date (by when you think you will deliver on a request) and communicate the date to the requester? As you work on your tasks the date re-calculates and if it slips you communicate a new commitment date so the requester could plan his work accordingly.

This is a tool we're working on, if you want to give it a try (it is in beta though): http://yoxel.com/personal-commitment-manager.html

Answer 4

It wouldn't be this by any chance would it ...
