### "Appen is awesome"

February 19, 2021

5.0

Pros

This software and website has made it very easy to find and hire people for different jobs, there are plenty of jobs available and you can post a gig for other people to work. I myself have used this software and its mobile recorder very easily. The website is easily navigationable and easy for the eyes.

Cons

The most time consuming thing about appen is the amount of paperwork you have to read and fill out before applying for a job.

### "Lovely Software For Remote Workers"

November 25, 2020

3.0

Pros

This software is quite easy to navigate and most of the action is done through the app on your mobile device, the mobile recorder. It has a social community that you can use to interact with other appen users and you're able to complete your own invoices for work done.

Cons

As a new user I had no idea of how to get paid for work that was done as I was not assigned to any teams or managers to guide me through using this software efficiently.

### "Very confusing and frustrating to use"

February 6, 2022

3.0

The first few things I've accomplished with Appen like signing up, logging in, and applying are smooth. The rest take much of my time that I felt was wasted. In the end, after I thought I got the job because I received an email from them, I still can't get through with it. Overall experience was very frustating.

Pros

I like that it is easy to download, register and login.

Cons

The problem is that once you are on the app/website there are buttons where it says "Work This", but when you clicked on it you'll receive an error. In short, this button is completely useless, so why is it there in the first place?

### "Appen is a great platform to work and earn by completing a few tasks"

February 3, 2022

4.0

Pros

\- Plenty available jobs - Registration is easy, simple. - Payment is prompt. Straight to my Payoneer, no delays. As a freelancer, there are many data entry jobs on Appen to choose from no matter where you come from. The platform makes it easy to upload my audios, images and videos tasks.

Cons

Sometimes, it takes forever for an applicant (contractor) to get a feedback from Appen regarding an application status! Their customer service is DEAD! You only get their bulk circular emails, but no reply to the questions you asked.

Pros

I like that it's a platform for freelance work.

It is an extremely difficult program to navigate. I haven't applied for a job with them in months because I don't want to deal with navigating this program.

### "The website is good, the mobile app could be better"

July 19, 2021

3.0

Good experience overall but it should save more time for contractors.

Pros

I connect at least once a month on Appen as a contractor and user. I have already performed data entry tasks, recording and uploading documents. The website work fine.

Cons

I had some trouble with the mobile app, I had to make two requests for support. Also, it is not clear how I can perform tasks being in Brazil and French as my main language. It should be easier to move from one country to another as your location can change during the year.

Jobs are fun and well documented, so if the rates were better I would probably work more for appen.

Pros

The projects are fun, they are diverse and interesting.

Cons

The rates, payment methods. The communication is not really personal.
