“Skills Base provides a service difficult to find elsewhere. It allows you to conduct in-depth competency assessments between individuals and supervisors in a way that provides far more detail than many other systems. It allows you to focus in on the competence of the people as assessed by themselves and their manager (if you want) reporting the results in a user friendly way. The fact you have control over what you input, how you input and how you measure gives a lot of flexibility allowing you to understand what works for your people before you launch it. For instance, we started with 3 levels but after a pilot moved to 5 to allow more granular information. You can do this quickly easily and a cost effective way. “

Additionally, I have twice reached out for support and received a response within a single day (quite impressive as I am located in the USA and support is based in Australia).”

“Maintaining an up to date database of skills and qualifications segmented into geographic regions is vital to service organizations like All Covered. Skills Base has been everything we expected it to be and more. We have powerful insight into the areas where technical skill levels are strong and, equally as important, areas where there are gaps in skill that need to be filled.

Getting employees to assess their skills and keep them up to date on a regular basis is easy thanks to the intuitive and easy to use interface of Skills Base.

Using reports and the on-demand search engine to find resources with the right skill is a snap and has proven to be a valuable tool for both our sales team and our project management group.

The support team at Skills Base is extremely responsive. With their help we were able to plan, design, and implement our Skills Base production environment to meet our needs very quickly.”
