I have been extremely pleased with Skillcast from the beginning. I am the primary admin for the system (as well as a user), and I find it very easy to use. I review and customise all content before assigning the courses to our staff. I love that Skillcast does not ‘gatekeep’ this functionality and even gives us the ability to build a course from scratch. That said, the Skillcast team is always ready to jump in and help when needed, so you never feel like you are ‘on your own’ in figuring anything out.
