The platform has more features and functionality than we have been able to utilize yet, but our pilot program has been a huge success. The ability to customize features and privacy levels has been essential given our unique audience. > > **Cons**: Expect a learning curve for admins with limited back-end technology experience. > > I cannot imagine how much longer it would have taken and how much more it would have cost to launch our ideation initiative without the Skipso Labs platform. It has been wonderful to house all of the information and processes in one place. We were even able to utilize the standalone website as part of our rebranding this year. ----- ### "A World-Class Platform With an Even Better Team\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Daniel** | *10 September 2025* | Events Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: What I like most about Skipso is how seamlessly it covers the full lifecycle of an accelerator program—from application intake and scoring, to cohort management, to ongoing community engagement. The platform is highly intuitive, customizable to our specific workflows, and eliminates the need to juggle multiple disjointed tools. Even better, the customer success team (special shoutout to \[sensitive content hidden\]) has been outstanding. They’ve been incredibly fast, responsive, and proactive in addressing any questions or support requests. It feels like having a true partner rather than just a vendor. > > **Cons**: Honestly, nothing comes to mind. We’ve had a smooth experience with the product and the team. Highly recommend Skipso\! > > At eMerge, Skipso has completely transformed the way we manage our accelerator program. The platform allows us to operate more efficiently, deliver a better experience to founders and judges, and measure impact with far greater clarity. Every interaction with the Skipso team reinforces that they are invested in our success. Our experience has been nothing short of excellent—we couldn’t be happier with both the product and the partnership. ----- ### "An integral part in building an open innovation ecosystem" — 5.0/5 > **Ana** | *19 June 2026* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The platform is easy to learn, allowing administrators to be onboarded quickly. Many tasks can be managed internally without relying on Skipso support for minor changes. That being said, whenever assistance is required or an issue arises, the Skipso support team is proactive, responsive, and consistently works to resolve problems promptly. The Skipso team has also played an active role in shaping the backend flow of our programs on the platform. Their suggestions—based on experience with other clients and similar initiatives—have been valuable in refining our approach. Communication with the support team is professional and approachable, making them a pleasure to work with. > > **Cons**: As the platform is modular and highly customizable, making changes to one element can occasionally impact others, leading to unintended effects. It is therefore important to closely monitor the platform after updates or modifications to ensure no disruptions occur. Skipso support team can help establish a monitoring plan to address such issues quickly if needed. Platform does not have endless possibilities to make it as visually appealing as one might like, but Skipso’s front-end team is open to hear what the client wants and to do their best to make it happen if possible. > > Skipso has provided us with a platform that has become an integral component in building our open innovation ecosystem. It has enabled us to foster and manage connections between corporates and startups/technology companies, as well as to run innovation challenges and various startup support and collaboration programs. ----- ### "Skipso - Review" — 4.0/5 > **Rebecca** | *10 June 2020* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Both front and backend functionality in one platform including a public gallery, homepage setup, resource sharing, and information sharing on the FE and a submission portal, judging portal, payment feature on the BE. > > **Cons**: The backend is not intuitive/user friendly. Data doesn't always seem accurate. Regularly need assistance. > > My experience with Skipso dramatically improved when \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] began working with us, she's been quick to answer any questions I have and has been very helpful with explaining how things work. ----- ### "Great innovation matching platform" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *21 August 2019* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Lots of custom support from the team, allowing us to build a B2B innovation matching system for our SME customers. Lightweight interface and as-a-service provisioning make this relatively easy to manage even within the context of large, cumbersome IT departments such as ours. > > **Cons**: We could have used more support in the design phase, to help us focus on priority features and a long-term roadmap. Instead, we tried to do too much from the start, ultimately limiting the impact and usefulness of our service. Note: this is a client-side problem, but the supplier could help mitigate it with dedicated methodologies. > > We were able to set up a new service for our customers in a relatively short time, leveraging a lot of expertise and ready-made solutions. This helped us with customer engagement as well as market positioning as innovators. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/157120/skipsolabs?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/157120/skipsolabs) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
