Abstract. In software projects and also like in projects from other fields, planning playes a huge role. Correct estimates contribute to the succes of projects.

I have analyzed the state in planning management with the focus of estimation techniques in the waterfall modell and agile methodologies. I have compared methods and techniques in estimation and planning. I have tried to point out how the situation have changed after agile methods came to the scene. Also in this essay I am trying to highlight the benefits and the need that development team should be involved in the estimating and the planning process.
