Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026

Avilar WebMentor Skills is web-based competency management software for organizations that need to define role competencies, assess employee skills, identify gaps, and create development plans. It is positioned for corporate, government, nonprofit, and other organizations with customized workforce-management requirements. Teams can create competency models, map competencies to roles, run online assessments, and review skills across individuals, departments, roles, and organizations. The product is available as a cloud-based offering and can also be licensed for installation on customer servers.

Pricing is straightforward at the published entry point: the paid product starts at $1 per user per month with monthly billing. There is no free plan. The published product information does not present named tiers, so buyers should evaluate the required competency models, assessment workflows, reporting scope, and integrations against their implementation needs. For budget-conscious teams, the starting price is notable, while the broader value comes from combining assessments, skills inventories, gap analysis, reporting, and development plans in one system.

Assessment depth is the clearest differentiator. WebMentor Skills supports self, manager, peer, mentor, subordinate, customer, and other relationship-based assessments, alongside customizable proficiency rating scales. That makes it suitable for organizations that need perspectives from more than one reviewer rather than a single employee score. Integrations with LMS, HRIS, ATS, performance-management, and talent-management systems support wider workforce processes. Teams seeking detailed competency modeling and multi-rater assessment should consider Avilar. Organizations wanting a free option or a mobile-focused experience should look elsewhere.
