What do you like best about Skills Base?

I have been utilizing Skills Base at Bertrandt Technology for the past year, and it has proven to be a valuable asset to our team's skill management and development processes.

The ability to identify and assess the skills within our team has greatly improved our understanding of strengths and areas for improvement.

The user interface of Skills Base is intuitive and user-friendly. Navigating through the platform is a smooth experience, and the layout facilitates quick access to the information we need. This simplicity has played a crucial role in the widespread adoption of the tool within our team. Nevertheless, the interface could be a bit more attractive, specially the assessment part.

The platform's functionality has enabled us to tailor training and development programs more effectively, resulting in noticeable improvements in our team members' skill sets.

One of the standout aspects of our experience has been the exceptional support service provided by Skills Base. I have to specially mention George Tsitsis and, of course, Daniel Abou Jaoude, who has helped us during the first steps and all the way after that.

While our experience has been largely positive, there are some parts that needs to be improved. It would be beneficial to explore additional features that could further enhance the customization of the views, like the columns we can see in the people list. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Skills Base?

- Interface is not as attractive as we would like to.

- The level of customization is limited. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Skills Base solving and how is that benefiting you?

We need to have an skills matrix of all the Team and we used to have it on an Excel doc. Skills Base help us a lot with that and now we can see the knowledge and interest of our team. We can see if some of them has experience in a skills we need for a project upcoming. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Much better competence management tool than what we used before (Excel).

- Identify knowledge gaps => training

- Helps recruitment focus on missing skill profiles

2. Discuss individual skills and interests with engineers in 1-on-1

- Connection with Personal Training Plan

3. Finding people with certain skill profile Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Skills Base?

Skills Base is a really simple tool to use when evaluating your teams skills. It helps identify gaps and gives you focus on where additional support needs to be placed. The holistic view on skills is realy cool. A great tool when building your team and wanting to ensure you optimise every team member. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Skills Base?

Not a dislike but more of an additional idea. If you could take the data on where you lack skills and use AI to create job descriptions that could then be automatically posted to job boads - this would streamline the recruitment process as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Skills Base solving and how is that benefiting you?

Helping to get better use out of my team Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
