- My manager just asked for this same information. Thankfully I read your work through the community and was able to share your timely project. Thank you.
- That's great, Glen! You're very welcome. I'm so glad it came in handy! :)
- Sending this to my Manager who seems to think I can whip something up in 8 days! EEK.
- Haha Deborah! I'm sure SOMEthing can be whipped up in 8 days, but it may not be the training jewel your manager is envisioning. :)
- Thanks Jackie, this is invaluable and supports my experience. Can show it to the powers that be.
- Fantastic, Liam! So glad to hear it's helpful.
- This is great Jackie! I have been searching for something simple to help others understand development time.
- Woo-hoo! That's great to hear, Tabatha! I'm glad it'll be helpful. :)
- Hi Jackie, do you think it is still accurate or up to date this estimation chart? I’m preparing a quote for a client right now and I'm not that experienced in project management. Don't know where to start to establish a detailed project budget...
Thank you so much for your help
- Great resource, thanks Jackie.
- My pleasure, Frances! I'm glad if it's helpful. :)
- Thank you Jackie for sharing. Your tool was particularly helpful for a recent client.
- That's fantastic, Nina! I'm so glad it helped. :)
- Great job Jackie! Loved it!
- Thank you, Helen! :)
- This is awesome to explain our job to others too. :) Thanks for sharing.
Where do you usually get the icons or image from? or do you also design yourself?
Thanks!- You're welcome, Vivian! You're right - it does help explain our jobs to others.
Re: Images - I already had the wallpaper image, so used that. The clock is so simple you could make it in PowerPoint and save it down as an image, but in the interest of time I bought a vector clock I could customize - and it may have come from Dollar Photo Club.
I hope that helps!- Cool! Thank you Jackie.
- This is fantastic, thanks for sharing! Our group was just discussing the development ratio, what a wonderful and engaging way to display it!
- You're welcome, Kate! It's definitely a discussion-worthy topic. So glad you like it!
- Thank you. This is so useful! I always tell myself to be better at tracking my time on projects (and I still will strive to be) but this is a great tool.
- You're welcome, Adena! I'm glad it'll help.
My favorite (free!) tool for time tracking is Toggl, by the way. The easier and quicker it is to start and stop projects and tasks - the better. :)
