Ok, it is fair to say that project complexity varies like the features of the software used to manage them -- from very simple to very complex. It is in the more complicated projects where the knowledge and skills of the Professional Project manager come into play. 

That is why the government and large corporations know that need and demand that the people working on projects have Project Management Professional Certification from PMI.

Not only is it a requirement in many cases having the certification directly affects the pay grade.

The origins of project management software are rooted in the 1950s when Dupont Chemical collaborated with mainframe computer maker Remington Rand (Univac) to devise the Critical Path Method of network scheduling (CPM). This method was tested in 1958 with the construction of a major new chemical plant. In parallel, the US Navy working together with Lockheed Aerospace devised the automated Project Evaluation Review Technique (PERT) for the Polaris Missile program that ran on the IBM mainframe. Mainframe and Mini computers dominated the project management software arena until the early 1980s when PC computers began to proliferate across business and government circles alike.
