Estimating the cost of a software project is difficult.

There are tens of variables involved ranging from the type of product that you’re building, the platforms which you’re targeting, the people involved, the effort it takes to build a product of this size, and so on.

All of these variables make it really difficult to converge on a specific number or a range without having sufficient knowledge of the end-to-end software development process.

And even if you do understand the process, estimating such a project requires weeks and weeks of effort and a lot of bandwidth from multiple people and stakeholders.

How can you expedite this entire process?

Is there a way to find a rough number without putting in this much effort?

In this video, we discuss it all and how you can estimate software projects of all sizes - ALL ON YOUR OWN.
