A lot of high-quality jobs and excellent clients. Excellent freelancers. Convenient platform for interaction.
I'm a little scared by their monopoly. They have no comparable competitors. Now all goes well, but if I get banned for some reason, I'm in trouble. However, Upwork does not seem to misuse its power as Apple does. And hopefully will not
I use Upwork both to earn money and hire freelancers for my own projects
I like the Upwork platform, I know it hard to kick off the work, but patience and hard work are the ingredients for success. I like the features and support that Upwork offers these include payment security and dispute handling.
There is nothing now, I dislike on the Upwork platform. I hope they would ease the rules around available Connects for new freelancers who just started.
Upwork is helping me connect with clients and I don't have to worry about client authentication, and even billing. I have moved my clients from outside to the Upwork platform. I trust the platform and like how they are keen to improve it.
Flexible working options. I can work whenever I want.
I think Job Success Score is not a good indicator of success.
I can find clients easily bu Upwork
Upwork helps me create work and earn extra money by managing my time
It takes too many days for the money to be released, once the job is approved. ately there are a huge amount of scam jobs. it woul be great is you could avoid them
Upwork helps me earn extra money and allows me to show my work beyond the borders of my country. Actually, I´m working on projects in Saudi Arabia
Upwork is a great pool of talents for business owners! And a great platform of opportunities for freelancers at different levels & industry. Professionally reliable for all who can follow Upwork's guidelines, terms & conditions. I use Upwork both as a freelancer as well as business owner. Compared to other freelancing platform, I liked Upwork much because of their professional processes & structures, better user interface, payment protections, etc. (still a lot can be improved; and they are continuously working to improve).
Actually, I don't remember anything in serious that I dislike. If I want to say something, first thing is Upwork's fees on freelancers for low budget projects. Also, it would be great if Upwork could bring more filter options for filtering freelancers, so that it will be easy to find the right talent for each kind of project.
I can work with projects that I like the most, in ease & flexibly at my own timeline. That's really important for me. Also, I can get required talent from different parts of the world for various projects. It is very easy to get right candidate thru Upwork than conventional employee recruitment process.
Volume. If you work daily, there will be daily work.
The administrators are too quick to assume infractions of TOS.
Benefits include volume and quality of client.
Upwork is the best platform to show your talent. It will help to grow with the most valuable tips and trained the freelancer to grow itself. It provides the payment guaranty.
I don't dislike anything on Upwork but only 20% only for the first $500.
Upwork is always ready to solve the problem of any freelancer.
I like the access to hundreds of clients, particularly those in my field.
The difficulty in getting interviews and then actually hired.
I am solving the problem of trying to find clients on my own. One of the main benefits is protected payments.
I love the fact I can get clients and freelancers in one spot.
Getting your first client sometimes is tough without a review, but that's typical and just takes extra work.
We used to have employees in my agency, but never could manage capacity and it hurt our profit. Freelancers fix that.
I like the variety of jobs and the number of invitations that are sent to active freelancers. It is really great!
Sometimes you can see clients, who are not able to provide clear requirements and don't even understand what they exactly want to get as a deliverable.
I am solving different problems related to Web Development / Software Engineering / Artificial Intelligence. I have realized that I am progressing much faster because of the complexity and diversity of projects that I was hired.
