Seems there is still some confusion (intentional or accidental) about the Cone of Uncertainty and its purpose and its use in software development. The chief critic of the cone has data collected from his projects that develop Products. From his article in an IEEE magazine often quoted by No Estimates advocates. .

It's suggested from observations, the Cone of Uncertainty (CoU) is not a valid model of how uncertainty behaves in software development projects. But a more important idea is missing in the article. In all software development businesses, showing up late and over budget has a direct impact on the bottom line. .

This article shares the key differences between Wrike vs. Asana. Wrike was launched in 2006 by founder and software developer Andrew Filev. Both are solid options for teams of any size, but of course, there are differentiators that make one a better fit for different companies and teams. . What is Wrike?

So in this article, I’m going to share some of the most important things I learned from it. There is so much I’ve highlighted in my 2006 hardback edition, that I don’t know where to start. Jim works in Software Development and talks about a particularly tough year.
