"Make your concepts come true!"
5/5
What do you like best about DesignCrowd?

With graphic designers from all over the world, you have the ability to take the start of your idea, share it, and see what comes about!. It truly takes the hard part off of you if you lack in the creativity side and allows you to move forward with multiple designs/logos to choose from. You can't go wrong!

What do you dislike about DesignCrowd?

I had plenty of time to complete my projects because I like to get ahead of the game. But I would not suggest using this route if you have a time sensitive project. Plan ahead... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fake guarantee, terrible designs"
0.5/5
What do you like best about DesignCrowd?

They answered to our refund email quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DesignCrowd?

We received terrible designs. We trusted their promise of "full refund", but it turns out they keep 55Eur out of 165Eur payment.

We feel cheated and we do not recommend this dishonest marketplace to anybody. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Design Crowd for the right crowd"
4/5
What do you like best about DesignCrowd?

Typically when you need something designed, you find a graphic designer and you have to work within their designs and ideas and it can be limiting. With Design Crowd you have options and different ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DesignCrowd?

There are times where even with the multiple options you are given what you are hoping for or what you envisioned is not one of the options. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Exploitation of Designers"
1/5
What do you like best about DesignCrowd?

If you're totally jobless, then it provides an opportunity for a break, albeit a long shot but still a chance at getting some work Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DesignCrowd?

The whole business model is based on exploiting vulnerable designers who will produce tons of design work and yet not get paid a penny. On the other hand, the buyer of goods pays, for e.g. just $100 bucks, gets designs from loads of designers Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"The best online platform to work as a freelance designer"
4.5/5
What do you like best about DesignCrowd?

I am a freelance amateur designer, and I constantly search for new projects on my free time as a college student, Designcrowd seems to make this task much easier and with a world-wide range of opportunities. in Designcrowd there are several job categories that give me the opportunity to be one of the designers responsible for giving life to those projects. It allows you to choose from the moment you sign up the way you would like to receive your payment; you then have to choose between Moneybookers (Skrill) and PayPal. Both are very safe purses in which millions of people have entrusted their money. Once you finish your project they will pay you through the account email you have entered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DesignCrowd?

The main advantage is that it only focuses on work for designers, which then becomes in a specialized freelance work platform. However, this can also be a disadvantage because it limits job offers to only one professional branch, It could expands up even more for photographers, architectural designers, fashion designers, among others; the design itself has a wider meaning, but even so I think that Designcrowd is on a very distinguished road. You can gain a lot of experience, especially if you're a novice or just opening the way in the freelance designer world. In case that your design is accepted, you'll earn money; and if not, you will win another design for your portfolio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Crowdsourced Design - May the Best Design Win"
4/5
What do you like best about DesignCrowd?

The way DesignCrowd works is a little different than other creative procurement services available. Using DesignCrowd, you post a detailed "briefing" in terms of what you would like your designer to create (be it logo, business card, etc.), set a budget, and then designers will "answer" with a design based on your briefing. Think of it as having many designers at your disposal, all with their own interpretations, and then you choose the best one and that designer gets paid. It's a great way to compare and contrast design styles, and you only pay for the one you choose so it's a win-win for the buyer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DesignCrowd?

I didn't really have anything negative to say about my experience with DesignCrowd. Obviously you aren't paying multiple thousands for a logo, so don't expect that level of thought, but what I was delivered was on par with what I paid. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
