I've used it. It works OK. In order to refine it's answers you actually have to "do" a substantial part of the product. Then you will know enough to tailor it properly. Just starting out with a typical Request For Work it can give you a first order estimate of the resources needed.

How accurate is it for database development/modelling? Supposedly if tailored properly it works very well for software engineers http://sunset.usc.edu/research/COCOMOII/cocomo_main.html
