Hello Product Hunt! It's been more than a year since we published MuchSkills on PH and since then, a lot has evolved for us. From fine tuning our product to acquiring customers from all over the world, we are happy to release MuchSkills 3.0 - what we like to believe is the future of skills mapping. *humble brag* We've always believed that skills management is something that should be conducted in an inclusive way that allows individuals to express what gives them energy and what they believe they are good at, but at the same time allowing organizations to specify what they expect from their employees. With this latest update, we are focussing precisely on that. @danielnilsson77 from the team conducted tons of meetings with customers big and small to understand precise pain-points and needs. And we have actively listened and found a way to take all that great feedback and deliver a unique product that still screams MuchSkills – a software for organisations that’s designed for people. For this update you will find the following feature and user experience updates: 1. Slice and dice skills data in whatever way you want. You’ve always been able to view skills data by skill density and level of interest across departments and locations. Well, now you will be able to go deeper, with bar charts that help you easily break down level of expertise and skill ranking distribution. Discover department or organisational skill gaps. And most importantly, find individuals who possess the skills for the job you are looking to get done. 2. Improved User Experience From a few changes in terminology such as TEAM > TEAM/ORG to a more condensed, always available Toolbar for quick actions and search, to a simpler ‘tabbed’ layout, we have listened to feedback and made the discovery and exploration of skills and people more delightful. 3. Insights on every skill in your org Just imagine being able to think of a skill you’re looking for and thinking: "I wonder who in my organisation possesses this skill?" Well, with MuchSkills 3.0, you can now do that by drilling into each skill and getting a skill level distribution that you can quickly filter among departments, location and more. 4. Custom skills management has been levelled-up After introducing Custom Skills earlier this year, we received requests to make this feature even more valuable. You wanted descriptors with each custom skill, and today, you have it. Not only that, admins and managers can decide if the skill should be made available to everyone or just specific departments in order to standardise the skills being measured in your org. 5. Recommended custom skills We understand closing your eyes and introspecting isn’t always enough to discover the skills your managers have set for you. So instead, we just display upfront the skills they would like you to add to your profile. We are sorry this took so long. 6. Toolbar realness Our filters and labels have been scattered all over the place, which wasn’t very nice of us. We assumed people enjoyed an occasional scavenger hunt, but I suppose a very friendly user experience was what was needed. Hence an always consistent and available toolbar with search, solid filter and prominent call-to-action will be found on most pages. 7. People finder like Cerebro – but less creepy Searching for people and how they are connected in an organisation has never been easier or this fun. Search for a name, see their connections, view their top skills and contact info all in a matter of seconds. We are going to keep rolling out updates, tweaks and improvements in the coming weeks and months after this release. Below is a list of a few upcoming updates: Skills & Gap Analysis - Create lists of skills that you want to keep a track of and analyse how they are distributed across departments and teams. Advanced Team Builder - PROJECTS will soon be replaced with a smarter and better TEAM BUILDER that lets you build skills-based teams. Define the skills you need, and we’ll help you find the right people for the job at hand. Certifications - Soon you’ll be able to go beyond just Job Focus, Soft Skills, Technical Skills and Custom Skills and add Certifications to your profile. We hope these updates resonate with the community and our customers and would love to hear back from you. It's been a lot of hard work by our little team of 4 and we welcome any constructive feedback and suggestions. ❤️
