### "Personal preference of Upwork Enterprise Suite"

January 22, 2024

5.0

Pros

It is very truthful in that one can be able to hire, and manage their freelancers. It offfers flexibility in acquiring talent.

Cons

High fees are charged, the fees are too high for those who are starting their business and for freelancers. It is also very difficult to start a career due to competition.

### "Great Platform with a few flaws"

September 9, 2021

5.0

I like the functionalities overall, but dislike the high amount of competition and margin Upwork takes.

Pros

I use it from both angles- both for finding freelance jobs, as well as for finding candidates; I love that switching is seamless, finding your messages is a no brainer compared to other UIs, and of course I love the fact that there are many opportunities for freelancers offered online. Also, Upwork staff can help with requests asking for what to post to find freelancers, and their newsletter gives helpful tips pn how to find freelance work.

Cons

As freelancer I find the share Upwork takes a bit too high (they should make it 10% deduction for everyone), and there is a huge amount of competition from low cost countries.

### "Opportunities "

December 28, 2023

5.0

I have had very good experiences with the projects achieved on this platform. They also take care of the client as well as the freelancer giving them the same priority so that both parties receive their benefits fairly and respectably.

Pros

It is a platform that allows you to get work projects in which you can start even if you have little experience and you may be surprised by how much you can find to do and learn from each project you undertake. If you are dedicated and take into account the warnings of the platform not to contact clients outside the platform you can have great success. GO FORWARD!

Cons

Lately, they are exaggerating a bit the amount of Connects required to be able to apply for a job offer.

### "Reliable job and time tracking platform"

October 30, 2021

4.0

Satisfactory, I'd recommend it to anyone who wants to work hard and get rewarded for it.

Pros

Upwork was my first experience working as a freelancer online. It can time a few weeks to get a job, but once you're established in the platform, you'll earn badges and get jobs more easily. If you work hard you'll get rewarded on this platform.

Cons

Website can be slow sometimes, and time tracking sometimes tracks a bit more time than it should (due to rounding of 10 minute based tracking).

### ""Best Earning Online Platform""

June 30, 2021

5.0

Excellent working space, one can easily get jobs there and also advertise your job there Incase you need work done. The fact that when I get paid I can easily transfer the money to my mobile money is wonderful.

Pros

I enjoy the security I get after finishing work, I'm assured of my pay even in the case where a client refuses to pay after they have received their work. Up work reviews the work done and if every requirement was met then you'll eventually get your money. Both client and freelancer are secured. Also I can be able to filter out jobs and view the ones that suit my needs and skill set.

Cons

For one to build a reputation that attracts well paying and long term clients, it takes time. Bidding for jobs is another issue especially if you are starting out as a freelancer most of your connects are spent bidding for jobs advertised. One might end up losing money.

### "Good Freelancing Platform, but costly."

April 13, 2021

4.0

UpWork is a very good freelancing site and there's a lot of room for potential if you keep trying, however, there seems to be too much competition to even get started and rated, and the bids are too expensive for the average or beginner freelancer. Some gigs cost like 10 bids, and if you spend the gigs and don't get the job, then you've lost money, because you have to pay for the bids in advance. So, I think it would be best to build a strong reputation on Social Media or via a Blog, before bidding on gigs on UpWork, so the employers can get a better understanding of who you and what you can do. Thank You.

Pros

I like the wide selection of gigs available and the useful filters such as filtering Skills and when the Gigs were posted, e.g. you can search for Animation gigs by most Recent.

Cons

I love the wide selection of gigs available, however, I don't like how you need to pay for bids, it adds up over time, and for the most part I haven't received an actual gig as yet, and thus I've lost money.

### "Best Freelancing Platform but still needs improvement"

November 9, 2020

2.0

Medium type of experience not so good, not so bad either.

Pros

I like the user interface. It is simple and shows simple options in the menu such as find work, active projects etc. Its chat menu offers options such as video call, or voice call. You can easily send files in messaging. Moreover, it offers detailed analytics and reports for cash inflow. You can receive payments securely as a freelancer and find work related to your skillset. There are many filters and categorization to chose and filter your skill relevant jobs. It is good for buyers or clients but not up to the mark for freelancers.

Cons

Very hard procedures and very difficult to start a career here because of so much competition. Unlike other platforms Upwork makes the freelancers write big details for jobs. Even if the job is small you need to write comprehensive details regarding your experience and work. It is like filling up a big form for an online resume. I hate it. Secondly, the buyer will rarely risk hiring the freelancer with no ratings or new id. The worst thing is that you need to use connects forbidding and most jobs are for native Americans. If they really need natives then why earning money from freelancer connects too? They can buy their services through ads on social media. Also, they have a huge cut of 20% and most of the terms go in favour of the client but now the freelancer.

Cons

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"

November 12, 2022

5.0

I love how it connects me to people.

Pros

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.

Cons

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"

Pros

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

Cons

Nothing comes to my mind. I am really satisfied.

### "This is just my experience"

December 15, 2020

3.0

If you don't want to deal with finding work as a freelancer and you don't mind giving away a large percentage of your revenue, Upwork is great - there seems to be a steady stream of leads. If you don't trust yourself hiring a freelancer as a client, Upwork is great - you probaby won't get ripped off. I don't fall into either of those categories, so I don't use Upwork anymore.

Pros

It's very easy to find and interact with people, both from a freelancer perspective as well as the client's perspective. They seem to have the security dialed in as well, and it's somewhat difficult to get ripped off by people who aren't trustworthy.

Cons

In exchange for ease of use and security, they charge obscene fees. As a freelancer, your first gigs are going to easily cost 20%+ of your project revenue.

### "Is Upwork even legit?"

July 29, 2021

3.0

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.

Pros

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

Cons

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

### "A review as a Client and a Freelancer"

November 24, 2020

4.0

I find the customers on the site to be of a higher level than those found on other sites. The clients are respectable, friendly, and don't negotiate or cheapen the experience.

Pros

Upwork is an excellent platform for gaining new clients. I've worked with Upwork for several years and only have great experiences. I've also used the site as a Client, searching for services. I found my assistant through Upwork, and she's the best!

Cons

Upwork's take is 20%. I know that's the industry standard, but it's a lot. I feel I would be better served, and Upwork would also, by a smaller take resulting in more orders. I have to raise my rates 20% to cover the charges and that's unfair to my clients.

### "Want to be Your Own Boss ,Try Upwork."

July 25, 2021

5.0

It is good and I have decided to work more and more on Upwork.

Pros

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 . Here the probability of scams is very less and I really enjoy the support that Upwork provides to its employees and freelancers. Upwork keeps a check and balance of its employees and freelancers so that if someone tries to do anything out of the terms and conditions of Upwork so he/she would for sure going to be noticed by the Upwork team so it's a safe place to do your business. Upwork provides ease of money transfer, security also by the small investment you can get some perks to be highlighted if you are a freelancer and also it provides several methods to validate your existence as a real-time employee to whom a skilled freelancer can believe and serve you.

Cons

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.

### "Very good Freelancing platforms"

April 25, 2021

5.0

Upwork has been and I guess will be the best freelancing platform, I really enjoy working there and will definitely recommend to others.

Pros

The user interface is very easy and great, there are tones of opportunities related to every field, everyone can find something to work on. The review and feedback option also helps a lot to boost your rating and get hired easily.

Cons

It's very hard to find a job and get hired at first, even though you have a good matching profile, first projects come very hard. Connects are paid now, and I think it is not fair, as anyway upwork charges its % from your income.

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

May 18, 2021

5.0

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

Pros

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.

Cons

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

Very positive; will use it again for future projects

Pros

\- It allowed me to hire the best talent for a couple of projects I was working on. - All the communication, messages & attachments, is stored on Upwork - Contracts with milestones clarify exactly what is expected from the freelancer - Upwork escrow delivers the money to the freelancer once the business owners confirms the acceptance of the work

Cons

Not much; there are some talents that I could not find for a specific project, i.e. lawyers in Europe area
