Quoting / Costing tool for project budgets

Looking for a tool that will allow me to customize resource costs then add tasks with hours and the resource to determine a cost of a project for quoting clients on their requests. They way our company works is that we are a bit waterfall for the start of a project with defining projects and requirements up front to get a budget and then once we start developing we work in 2 week sprints to deliver the defined requirements and make adjustments as needed.

    Hi Joe,
    QuoteCalculator http://www.quotecalculator.co may fit the bill for this if you have standard costs for resources. Let me know what you think and if you have any questions.

    QC will let you create the Calculator yourself and embed it on your webpage, allowing yourself or your potential customers to work out a quote as well.

      Hi QuoteCalculator_Sam - is it expected that the link goes directly to a download? I attempted to download it and anti-virus caught it saying that it wasn't a common download file.

        There is an issue with DigitalOcean DNS at the moment, the other issue might be that it's not https so chrome is blocking it. Can you try again in a few hours when DO have fixed their issues?

          Sure thing - excited to see it because it sounds like exactly what we need.

                When i go to http://quotecalculator.co/ I am just getting a downlaod for a file called "download" that my computer is warning me is an uncommon file.

                  Got it to work by putting in the www! Looks like the redirect isn't working properly.

              I'll give it a few - I just tried again and I am getting the same results. I gave it a try in incognito mode too to make sure it wasn't a caching issue.
