Ask HN: Is PERT dead?

How do you estimate how many people and time do you need to start and finish a new project from the development side? Any tools/concepts/ideas are welcome

I wish there was a good, popular, cheap PERT tool like MacProject used to be.
Wow. Not just cheap, but MacProject was free on the original Mac.

Smartsheet has a PERT view. I've used it successfully on a short-term project with about 20 engineers. The only "configuration" I had to add was a JIRA column.

I use Pert. cheap. comes in large 64oz bottles. Smells alright and not watered down like Sauve, Axe, etc.
