- Easy to approach clients. - Client management and payments are handled effortlessly, one can focus on what they love to do. - A great set of team to assist you

None. I have found Toptal to be good at what it does and solves the gap between clients and top-quality talents very well. The connect is global across timezones and works very well.

Toptal is solving the problem of hiring top-quality contractors for businesses who need top-notch skillset. For contractors, it is easy to find good clients and put in the time they can, even as a digital nomad.

Toptal has been a wonderful experience for our company -- they have provided one of the sharpest, agile, and best talents we've ever worked with in our startup journey. Their costumer service and support is incredibly responsive as well.

The overall price can be a little bit on the higher end.

Finding the right partner for developing a full stack app, ranging from low level development, product roadmap, devops, and ui ux design.

100% user-friendly platform and able to support each phase. Upside will be the supporting platform and challenging projects to work on your career best.

I didnt find any major thing and there is no downside for toptal

Providing me with better projects where the current market demands with enterprise clients.

The best thing about Toptal and the experience I had so far, is that I found lots of other freelancers, with different backgrounds and different cultures with which I shared knowledge and made a network. The platform is almost all automated and you just have to start, find a good client and do your best

The application process for the job is not really clear and transparent to us in my opinion

I was searching for freelancing remote jobs, paid as they should for a professional like me, and Toptal has the right tools and client base to help me on this task.

This is my first experience with Toptal, and I have to say it's amazing. From the sales process to working with their developer, everything has been better than I expected. What I like the most is that they are crystal clear about the entire process, and if you have any questions, you can easily talk to your account manager.

Toptal has exceeded my expectations in every way

Toptal's developers our developing software for our company

I've been freelancing for eight years, and Toptal is one step ahead of all other platforms I've tried. They have some of the best clients with exciting and challenging projects. Toptal has a support team for literally anything one can think of. They also have one of the most active and helpful communities I've seen. Some other things that I like are professional development opportunities and ease of receiving payments (you can get a virtual card, order Toptal physical card, or simply transfer money to your account). Salaries are much higher than in any platform I used. Toptal also has a referral program. Another great thing is the TopVolenteer program which connects top-level professionals from the Toptal network to projects with great causes.

It was a bit hard to pass the vetting, but it's totally worth it.

Thanks to the hard vetting process, there are only high-level professionals in Toptal's network, so my application for a project is not lost in a pile of applications from inexperienced developers. I also spend less time finding the next project (I get hired in 1 of every two applications) with high salary

Toptal has been a game-changer for me in the world of freelancing. One of the standout features is the seamless financial service they provide. With Toptal, I never have to worry about contracts or deposits before and after projects. This financial security has not only eased my mind but also given me the confidence to focus on what I do best - delivering quality work to my clients. The exclusivity of the platform and the exceptional user interface and user experience of both the website and the app have been instrumental in my success. Toptal's exclusivity ensures that I'm part of a community of top-tier freelancers, and the user-friendly interface makes applying to projects incredibly easy. It's clear that Toptal values both its clients and freelancers, making the entire process smoother and more efficient. Lastly, I'd like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the coaches and support staff at Toptal. Their guidance and assistance have been invaluable on my freelancing journey. Toptal is not just a platform; it's a supportive ecosystem that empowers freelancers to excel. Thank you, Toptal!

The Third-party payment system called Payoneer.

Toptal has truly transformed the way I perceive freelance work and the process of finding freelancing opportunities. Prior to joining this platform, I had a somewhat traditional view of freelancing as a sporadic and uncertain endeavor. However, Toptal's approach to freelancing has shattered those preconceptions. Toptal doesn't just offer freelance jobs; it provides a gateway to a world of high-quality, reliable projects. The rigorous vetting process ensures that both clients and freelancers are of the highest caliber. This, in turn, has redefined my perception of freelancing as a dependable and lucrative career path. Moreover, the user-friendly interface and the abundance of resources available on Toptal have made it incredibly easy to discover and apply for projects that align with my expertise and interests. It has turned the daunting task of finding freelance opportunities into a streamlined and efficient process. In essence, Toptal has changed the way I look at freelancing. It's no longer just about "gig work"; it's a dynamic and fulfilling career choice with a supportive community and endless possibilities. Toptal has redefined what it means to be a freelancer in the modern age, and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunities it has opened up for me.

Toptal platform is the best freelancing platform I have ever worked with. The entire hiring workflow is like a breeze from job search to matching to managing payments.

As a freelance platform for independent contractors it does the job efficiently. The only thing that could improve is providing more long term engagements.

As a freelance software developer, Toptal has provided me with work opportunities, it benefits me because it's total remote work with decent hourly rates

The service is excellent, from the experience on the website to the attention they provide. Always ready to help and facilitate everything. The person we got through the platform has been a great support and guide for the company. I would recommend it a thousand times.

I like everything. No feedback for now!

Setup the right way the finance department in our startup.

I must say I'm pleasantly surprised with Toptal after using Upwork unsuccessfully. Highly recommend dev Vipul Bhardwaj. Right to the point. Your gateway to highly personalized large language model / natural language processing chains, and superpowered development thanks to using LangChain. https://www.toptal.com/z9QRMTr/worlds-top-talent They can be your ChatGPT or Claude+ interpreter (or any others). And if you need more than developers they've got you covered there too. Lots of time to see how it feels and find the right person for the job before you're out of pocket. Really pleasant and easy experience from start to finish. https://linkedin.com/in/vipulbhj/ https://github.com/vipulbhj Cheers to onboarding team Pablo Cardenas and Madison Mascali too.

Occasional issues with the UI. They might consider switching video clients to Google Meet or Zoom. Might be good to have three or more suggested consultants when getting started.

Creating a cutting edge version of my vision of a product. I'd tried Upwork or WordPress on my own and it just didn't have the functionally I needed. Better to have a lightweight and fast product that is streamlined to do exactly what you need.
