UPPER Reviews & Product Details

My experience with UPPER has been outstanding so far. From the very beginning, the interview process was structured, clear, and respectful of my time. What really sets them apart is the ongoing support, the team is always available and genuinely invested in your success. I also found their internal board extremely helpful, it allows you to browse available roles at any time. But even better, their team actively matches you with roles that truly align with your skills and goals, saving you time and increasing your chances of landing something meaningful. If you’re a tech professional looking for curated opportunities with a human-first approach, UPPER is this place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While my overall experience with UPPER has been very positive, there were a couple of challenges in the beginning. Initially, it took some time before I was matched with a role, I wasn’t invited to any interviews for a couple of months, which felt a bit uncertain. However, this changed once a well-matched opportunity came through, and the process quickly gained momentum. Additionally, there isn’t always clear visibility on when payments are processed. I assume this depends on the timelines of their clients, but having more transparency or updates in that area would definitely enhance the experience. That said, I appreciate their efforts and the support they’ve provided throughout my journey. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

UPPER has streamlined my workflow and allowed me to focus more on delivering quality work, making it a fantastic choice for freelancers looking for a reliable management tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While UPPER has been a great asset for managing my freelance work, one area that could use improvement is the timesheet UI. Currently, it’s not very intuitive, which can make tracking time and logging hours feel a bit cumbersome. The layout could be streamlined to allow for quicker entry and better clarity around recorded hours. Simplifying the interface and adding a few more user-friendly options would make time tracking much smoother. Improving this aspect would greatly enhance the overall experience, especially for freelancers who rely on accurate timesheets for billing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Brands are becoming more human, and Upper stands out as a prime example, where the values of leadership are vividly reflected in every aspect and touchpoint. Victor, the Founder and CEO, is a determined and committed leader on a mission to transform the freelance marketplace. His dedication is palpable in every conversation, evident in how he nurtures his brand, fosters partnerships, and builds an unwavering connection with his community. While Upper is a tech-augmented freelancing platform, it manages to feel personal, involved, and extremely responsive to all users—both clients seeking the best talent and remarkable people all over the globe. Upper's ambition to become one of the most sought-after freelance marketplaces is backed by unrivaled experience, excellent support, and an insatiable thirst for innovation.

The only drawback is that they have yet to receive the attention they deserve in the world of freelance marketplaces. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been working with Upper since June this year and, so far, I must admit that it has been a very good experience: constant support, guidance, the recruitment process is quite straight forward, easy to follow and I have been kept up to date at all stages until I landed my first job. Upper has very good quality clients and I feel like I have made a very good decision. And on top of all this, the job is fully remote! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have been registered with Upper since late Summer '23. Within a couple of weeks I was in a process to secure some freelance work. The platform itself is easy to navigate and unambiguous, the way the roles are displayed reads like a regular job board which is great for familiarity and once work is secured, the timesheet functionality is also very straightforward - 10/10.

What I have found also is that the service provided by the people at Upper is truly excellent. From initial calls through to talent success management, it is faultless. I know if I have a question or issue (I've not had an issue), I can go on the Upper slack and message my contact or the community at any time, safe in the knowledge I will get a quick reply with an appropriate answer.

Great service, great people. I am very happy overall with my Upper experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hello,

For me the UPPER experience was my first job as a freelancer, and it had a huge impact as I was quite afraid to take this step, move from permanent employee to self employee. I appreciated the collaboration and all the help I got in order to align with the new business requirements, invoicing, contracting and so on. Beside this what I like also like is the Upper Community and the communication, where you get constant info's about opened roles and opportunities, this is very important when working as a freelancer.

It is not correct to say I disslike, but I would have loved them even more if they would had more jobs related to my domain. This way probably I could have had the chance to collaborate again with them.

But who knows, maybe this will be possible in future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There wasn't much to dislike about Upper. However, if I had to mention something, it would be the rule that if you do not send the invoice until 5th in the month the payout will take place in the next payment period. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
