This article defines some common Skyjed terms.
Skyjed Product Workspace
A workspace in Skyjed is like a ‘space or hub’ for product management. Your Product Workspace is made up of design, audit, domain and driver information. It is an at-a-glance representation of Product Strategy Summaries, Actions and Comments.
Customised virtual team
Skyjed allows you to create a virtual lifecycle team made up of different areas of expertise from your organisation so you can work remotely from anywhere, at any time. You can invite team members from development, support, customer success, finance, marketing and CX to create a cross-department team. Product management is a collaborative effort so the wider the expertise of your team, the better your product will be.
