"Skyjed has provided an invaluable toolset to support product management throughout the lifecycle of a product or suite of products. Through their flexible and comprehensive Design and Audit tools, we have been able to efficiently and transparently document the health and status of our products in a single, centralised location.Further to this, the Product Audit reporting has allowed us to quickly compile large volumes of product information into an easy to digest summary and score, that we make available to our senior leadership teams and has been received very well.
Product audits and findings in a presentable format that would have taken 4-5 hours to
prepare are now achievable in around 30 minutes, allowing us to devote more time back to other valuable tasks. Whether you are managing one product or many, Skyjed has provided a capable framework to make sure you are robust and diligent in your product management role."
