It fulfill our company purpose as a temporary solution which you could launch easily in almost less than 24 hours. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros easy to use, self explanatory and less housekeeping. Easy on-boarding of resources and skills. #### Cons Report builder need to be more flexible. Mass deletion is not available, in case of modification of skills records. #### Vendor response Hi Isam, Thanks for the kind review.

Replied December 2018 --- ### Forever Fan - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Marlia F. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: March 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. From the initial inquiry to the implementation and ongoing use, the platform and the people have been fantastic. The interface is user friendly; however, if help is needed there is a robust help center, and customer support is never far away. There is a logical flow between all aspects of the platform so understanding how data in one area influences data in other areas makes sense. I also love the fact that SkillsDB complements learning paths and professional development plans, which is key for performance coaching. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros When I first learned about SkillsDB, I was at a previous employer. I was charged with finding a tool that could (1) streamline our skills management process; (2) simplify self-assessments; and (3) help leaders find specific skills for resourcing projects. SkillsDB can do that and provide so much more! My favorite feature is the Job Roles feature, which demystifies performance expectations for current roles and naturally establishes career paths that employees can aspire to achieve. #### Cons For my previous employer and the client I'm working with now, the skills library doesn't contain as many out-of-the-box skills we can use. Each environment is highly specific with the skills that are tracked and how they are tracked, so we had to customize everywhere. This is one of those things where a weakness is a strength because the convenience of customization meant we could structure the skills and competencies to meet our unique business needs. That leads to ease of usability and faster adoption. #### Reasons for choosing SkillsDB SkillsDB checked boxes that I didn't know were needed. It allows users to start small and expand as their company and needs grow. The free trial was instrumental in making the decision as we were able to test it out before selecting which tool to move forward with. Now that I am supporting clients in their journey toward building world-class talent management and development programs, I have more opportunities to spread the word about the positive impact SkillsDB has on the employee experience. --- ### Good service to meet our needs - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Katryn S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: March 2023 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.
