Skyscanner, Kayak and a number of competitors connect the customer to a wide variety of sites that sell tickets. Some of those sites are operated by airlines, some by on-line ticket agencies. Nobody can give you a blanket evaluation of how reliable all of them are.
Once the connection is made, Skyscanner et al have no more role in the ticket sale.
Some of the on-line agencies have been around long enough to grow into major companies. They do have the advantage of being able to combine airlines into a multi-flight itinerary.
Opinions on this forum and elsewhere tend to rate these agencies as okay for straightforward purchases but suggest it may be difficult to obtain help in case something goes wrong or you want to make changes. Again, some operations will probably be better than others in such circumstances.
