Great Way to Find Contract Resources

Kommentare: Overall, Upwork allowed us to resource a project without going through the more traditional and expensive means of hiring a consulting/recruiting agency. As a client (as opposed to contractor), the fees are incredibly reasonable, as you are only required to pay for transactional fees. This is a much more preferable option to traditional recruiters. We will definitely consider using Upwork to resource our projects in the future.

Vorteile:

Upwork allows you to connect with a variety of service professionals from all over the globe. Their online platform is very easy to use for beginners, and allows for relatively advanced search functionality so that you can find the talent you need. Their customer service reps are very prompt and helpful, and someone contacted me within 24 hours of posting my available job. In addition, their candidate review and endorsement section is very helpful during the selection process, as you can review which candidates have a proven work history.

Nachteile:

The range of talent you can find on Upwork is almost too broad. In some instances, the price per hour can vary up to $100, depending on the experience and the location of the candidate. This can be a little overwhelming if you're a first time user and you unsure what to expect from the candidates. The communications policy with candidates is also very strict, and only allows you to contact communicate directly through the platform. While this may be sufficient for smaller projects, it is not conducive to larger project work.

Great for Talent Acquisition

Kommentare: Really helpful when looking for certain people with certain skills or talent

Vorteile:

Easy to use, has a very wide platform, and a lot of talented individuals on this app. Though we need to filter it carefully to avoid scams

Nachteile:

Sometimes the notifications don't pop up which is sad because it's important so we can reply to talents and clients on time.

A company that does not care about its freelancers

Vorteile:

Nothing, horrible experience with a company that does not do what it preaches.

Nachteile:

I joined Upwork in March 2020 without initially having any intention to do any freelancing. A few days later, a client invited me to bid for their project. It was a very small project at that time, but it slowly became a much bigger project. I had some small contracts with other clients too, but rather small. I was in the top 3% of freelancers and used to get a few requests and invites for jobs every week. Beginning of April, Upwork sent an email to both I and my main client to say that they were "reviewing" our contract. Now, mind you, that contract has been into place for a year and we never had any issues with it. They have asked us for a ton of papers and both me and the client provided them with everything. It was a painful process and then a few days later Upwork suddenly sent us an email (me and the client) saying that our accounts have been suspended. This came as a big surprise, especially since they even wanted to disclose the reason behind it was. Both I and the client were honest, payment was being done timely and I always had 100% job success rate. Moreover, any other active contracts that I had were also cancelled, meaning there is no way to collect the money now from those clients nor from my biggest client either. I have messages Upwork a few times and tried to understand why my account has been suspended, which again, they just ignored. It is a very frustrating experience when you pay over $3000 in commission to Upwork for a year and get shut down....

Great for Remote work networking!

Kommentare: This software has made it more possible for me to connect with employers from around the world. Also, the platform protects the workers from a possible scam to occur with an employer.

Vorteile:

I like most that this software allows people from all over the world to connect with each other in one big workplace.

Nachteile:

What I like least is that you now will have to purchase connects in order to apply for a job. I think it's difficult for persons to be seeking jobs to get money and have to spend to get that job.

Freelancers landmark

Kommentare: A nice place to challenge your skills and get introduced to global market from wherever you are

Vorteile:

Account creation steps very easy, yet controlled, the best personality verification among other platforms. a lot of opportunities of work, all what you need to know about your client and his history.

Nachteile:

Number of monthly connects are very limited. Very high competition Raising talents faces a lot of disappointments to reach a gig

Such a great marketplace that love clients and freelancers both

Kommentare: My overall experience is fantastic with Upwork, it's super easy to use, highly secured and a lot helpful. It helped me to grow my business and take it to the next level. If I need a talented person, Upwork is my only choice even If I want to provide services around the world, Upwork is my only choice.

Vorteile:

One of the best freelancing platforms out there in terms of security it provides for money transfers between seller & freelancer. I like so many things about this freelancing marketplace especially the hiring system. As a client, I can easily tell the freelancer what I need, and the suitable freelancers bid on the post, this process always helps me to find out a talented person. There is no spam here, freelancers are so serious about their job. Even I can pay the freelancer by using the best suitable method and way such as the hourly or fixed project.

Nachteile:

I have used Upwork from both sides, as a freelancer and as a client. Overall everything was really amazing except few things from the freelancer side. Upwork certificate has a tight limitation, people who have WordPress related or other certificates, can't add it to their profile because there is no option. As a result, a freelancer can't add his perfect skill proof to the profile. Upwork has released a new feature called Project Catalog. This whole functionality seems not completed yet, there is no analytics option on it. There is another issue I've noticed from the client-side. If the payment method is not verified, freelancers don't bid on the job post. A new client who joined Upwork just now maybe one day or two days ago, they don't know anything about it. So, they send job posts without verifying their payment method. I think Upwork should have a functionality that no one can send job posts with an account that does not have a verified payment method.

Upwork Review

Kommentare: We usually use Upwork to outsource legal consultants, Data Analysts and a lot of professionals to do a number of repetitive tasks that we have available on our Platform

Vorteile:

Well, Upwork is a robust marketplace for both demand and supply of work which incorporates a lot of talented professionals with a profound set of skills all together in one marketplace. We often use Upwork to outsource several Professionals such as data analysts and Software Developers from around the globe. Upwork is also Ideal if you want a part-time job and you are looking to better your skills, then you can offer your services on Upwork and get paid in return

Nachteile:

The only limitation is that It is quite costly but at the same justifiable and also on the part of freelancers it is quite hectic building up your reputation on Upwork and getting long term clients on Upwork

Upwork is a fantastic resource for clients and freelancers alike.

Vorteile:

what I like about upwork its ease of use to work as a freelancer to find jobs or offer these services and also the most that my most is the function to work on a proposal when you apply for a job it allows to the employer to see our submission at the top of the list and to have a better chance of getting the job, and also the customer service which responds very quickly when we have a problem or something that we have not understood I find its great

Nachteile:

what I liked less is that there are some unscrupulous employers who want to rip us off by offering to talk to them on other channels like wathsupp, or telegram but fortunately upwork customer service is there to warn us of all this

Upwork is an awesome plateform for freelancers

Kommentare: It was my first experience working as a freelancer at Upwork, and it's been excellent till now. I have been learning and polishing my skills day by day as a professional freelancer. Upwork is doing a great job by providing online jobs worldwide. It's the fantastic platform ever.

Vorteile:

Although I am doing a job, Upwork is still my favorite platform to utilize my spare time to use my skills as a freelancer. It’s a source of income for me. Upwork provides me the fastest way to interact with millions of freelancers worldwide. Almost every profession is available at Upwork, where we can utilize our skills to make money or get our project done. The way how to support the team of Upwork communicate with new freelancers is inspiring for me. They guide me at every stage to get my desire project. They told me how to build eye-catching proposals, set milestones, fix budgets, and more. Upwork also sharpens my skills, interacting with individuals to get hired for a specific project, making my communication skills better, an extra benefit of Upwork, and getting up. It’s not a complicated platform, easy to present yourself and your skills, convince the client and start earning by staying at home. Its job-finding mechanism is so cool; by applying filters, you can get the most favorite job. Freelancers bid for a proposal; instead, they can make their project sell out; it’s another fantastic feature for me.

Nachteile:

Upwork has a strict policy for freelancers to use this platform reasonably. It's a fine thing, but when making a little mistake, they block your account witout telling the reason. In most cases, freelancers would not be able to withdraw the amount that they earned. But I am okay with it now, as these are requirements for fair use of this platform.

I love the Upwork App!

Kommentare: Upwork has been an amazing platform to find freelancing opportunities. I would recommend it to anyone that is look for remote work opportunities.

Vorteile:

This app has made it so easy to apply to freelancing positions and go through the interview process. The chat feature is easy to use, the job search page is one of the best ones I've ever seen for a freelancing website, and the work tracker works really well. I also love the pay options they offer such as direct deposit and paypal.

Nachteile:

I can't think of anything that I don't like about the app besides wishing that they would lower their job fees.

My review to Upwork

Kommentare: It helped us connect with multiple talents for several purposes.

Vorteile:

It connects you with multiple talents from all over the world in short time. Moreover, it allows you to pre-set your conditions for the talent you would choose.

Nachteile:

It gives the talents with pro subscription a privilege and shows them first instead of their experiences.

Upwork Review

Vorteile:

Their services are professional and I like it

Nachteile:

I have not any disadvantages about this website

Fantastic for finding and working with contractors

Kommentare: I've used it on both the client and contractor side, and love the protections it offers on both sides. Large talent pool for clients and contractors alike, which is why they charge the fees I discuss. At the end of the day, if you need contract labor, or are looking for contract work, this is the creme de la creme in my opinion.

Vorteile:

It's like having escrow and a mediator for any client/contractor relationship. I've worked as both a client and contractor on the platform and love what it offers. As the client is that the fees are primarily paid by the contractor. I feel like perhaps this should be split between both parties, but that's just my two cents. It protects both client and contractor making sure that the work gets done before payment, and that the contractor gets paid if the work is completed to spec. They have a time tracking tool that takes screenshots of the contractors screen to ensure they are working on the client's project, and not billing for browsing FB or Twitter.

Nachteile:

As a contractor, the initial fees are 20%, which feels a bit steep. They do add a lot of value in terms of the client pool, and I realize they are in it to make money, but as an American contractor competing in the global economy, I find I have to underprice my services to compete already, before the 20% cut that Upwork takes. I finally worked my way up to Top Rated, which means I only pay 10% on some projects, and the 20% can also be reduced on long term projects, but that's my only gripe. Otherwise, I love the marketplace it offers. Important caveat: What I mention above may be a perk if you are a client looking to hire talent on Upwork.

Upwork is a great tool for all freelancers

Kommentare: Overall, Upwork is a great place to make a living as jobs are regularly available to apply and win. The product also provides different payment options which makes it more user-friendly.

Vorteile:

Upwork is very easy to use from the standpoint of the freelancer. The platform also provides payment flexibility for the buyer while the seller can charge as much as the job is worth. Also, it is easy to charge clients per hour or per project, which is another amazing feature. Finally, it is quite easy to integrate Upwork into my freelance writing business.

Nachteile:

One shortfall of Upwork is that it is not easy to navigate to your personal profile link to share to other platforms. In addition, Upwork has to improve on the availability of writing gigs so that buyers can find them. A difficult part may be the instant notification for jobs that you don't usually get on time.

Platform of Opportunities - For Some

Vorteile:

As someone who's made a living by working on Upwork for 4+ years, once you reach a decent level in a field, there are enough job opportunities and pleasant people to work with to make a career out of.

Nachteile:

Despite giving Upwork a 5-star rating, it's very difficult for me to recommend the platform because of just how hard the barrier of entry is. Upwork experience means everything, while degrees and knowledge mean nothing - like an amazon product with thousands of reviews, the client will likely choose an Upwork veteran over a new and unproven freelancer.

Too Many Scammers

Kommentare: I am very frustrated with Upwork:
1 - too many scammers, asking you to talk over Telegram, Skype, and then basically ask you to pay upfront a deposit, software, before you can work with them.
2 - when you go back, you will find the message they sent to me over Upwork is removed, the job post is also removed that you can not flag it as inappropriate.
3 - Upwork is totally disappearing in the whole journey, you can never reach any useful person or email, all you can use is some FAQ, which is useless.
4 - Then what ends up is I am burning my 'connects' to scammers.

Vorteile:

A popular and famous site for freelancer jobs

Nachteile:

The use of connect, can't relate to the reward from the job.

An excellent tool for finding freelance work

Kommentare: Upwork has allowed me to start a side business without any marketing efforts. It was very easy to standup the business by leaning on the Upwork platform.

Vorteile:

The volume of jobs that exist on upwork makes it easy for freelancers to fill a pipeline and create steady work.

Nachteile:

The "connects" or token system can prohibit matching a freelancer with a job that is a good fit, but the ability for job posters to invite specific applicants is a really good option.

Great platform for connection establishment between client and freelancer

Kommentare: In a nutshell, this software is extremely coming into help to the freelancers in terms of earning which is helping them to uplift their living standard.
In addition to this, someone can get the job done by others in a specified period of time which ensures smooth business operation as well.

Vorteile:

I. Ensures availability of jobs on a real time basis II. Finding and screening the best available jobs fitting one's capability along with best capable person for any job III. Time tracking feature (job placement time to delivery) IV. Payment verification and collection V. Excellent platform of earning and sourcing capable persons for the jobs VI. Very simple to use

Nachteile:

I. Chatting interface between client and freelancer can be improved II. Communication system is little bit confusing. III. Takes a huge % of earnings as the fee is increased

Talent at a click of a button

Kommentare: I love how it connects me to people.

Vorteile:

I like how I can search for 5 different kind of solution providers at the same time. I take 5 minutes a day per kind of solution provider. I can search for talent directly, and if urgent, get a response within 24 hours. With a well written job description, this could mean work starts in 24 hours.

Nachteile:

Their website payment freezes with random errors, so I cannot hire candidate. But I just switch to mobile view. If my card is frozen, and I try payment, it says card is rejected, have to go and provided CVC code again to activate it. Bit a of a hassle, a "try again" button would be great.

Upwork - The best platform to get clients / freelancers

Kommentare: I am a user since 8 years ago as a freelancer I am very happy. Also, I helped my clients to post jobs and hire freelancers in Upwork. The platform works great for both clients and freelancers.

Vorteile:

The software is very easy to use. They always are updating and improving the platform features.

Nachteile:

Nothing comes to my mind. I am really satisfied.

Is Upwork even legit?

Kommentare: Overall my experience was a very unpleasant one. There are certain restrictions that are placed on profiles and when customer services are contacted for some assistance they do not help at all.

Vorteile:

I like the concept of being able to obtain projects and work for freelancers and creatives.

Nachteile:

The user interface is absolutely dreadful. This software has a long way to go in terms of development.

Upwork is a leading freelancing marketplace where you get a high worth of your skills, there are thousands of skilled jobs are available on Upwork and it's a perfect place to find your desired job if you are a freelancer and if you are an employee then you will get a reliable, skilled worker .

Nachteile:

I just dislike one of its features that you have to wait to become 18 years old to join Upwork. But somewhat it's ok to wait till 18.

Earning from home and get instant alerts to avoid missing your opportunity of earning.

Kommentare: Instant alerts, alert via emails. Easy to navigate menus. Time tracking and snapshot are the best tools.

Vorteile:

It is a marketplace for me to find clients. The Upwork also has a messenger, email alert to remind you if you have any potential clients who are interested in my services. When I first started looking at how to earn money from home. I was skeptical about this website and software. Now, jobs from Upwork provide me full-time jobs by working from home and earn real money.

Nachteile:

The alert for the invitation does not show on the messenger properly. Sometimes, I can not find the invitation on it at all.

Greatest Marketplace

Vorteile:

The best thing I like about this software is that it has a great UI design and very great competition

Nachteile:

The worst thing about this software is that it is very expensive like buying connects
