One of the key strengths of Upper GmbH is the support provided by its team. Questions and concerns are addressed in a timely manner, showcasing a commitment to user satisfaction. While interactions are professional, there is a sense of warmth in their communications, which adds a human touch to the digital experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Exceptional Individuals, Diverse Projects, Unmatched Professionalism"
5/5
What do you like best about UPPER?

One of the standout features of Upper is the professionalism of its project managers. They exhibit high standards and make sound decisions when recommending professionals for specific projects. This ensures that the best-suited talent is matched with each project, enhancing the outcomes for both freelancers and clients.

Upper's platform design is sleek and efficient. The job board and freelance profile catalogue are both well-organized and intuitive to navigate. This makes it easier for clients to find the professionals they need and for freelancers to showcase their expertise and portfolio.

The diverse community of professionals that Upper hosts is another major plus point. The platform is a melting pot of talented individuals from various design and development backgrounds. This allows for a fertile environment of learning, collaboration, and career advancement.

Additionally, my experience as a Design Technical Recruiter for Upper has been rewarding. This unique opportunity has further deepened my connection and commitment to the platform and its community. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UPPER?

While my overall experience with Upper has been largely positive, one area that could use improvement is the speed of payments. Understandably, Upper needs to wait for payments from clients before they can pay freelancers. This can cause a delay, which might be inconvenient at times. Although they offer an option to receive payments earlier with a 5% charge, not all freelancers may be comfortable with this arrangement. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about UPPER?

It was less pleasant to work with UPPER because it took a while to find a suitable Product Owner/Business Analyst role due to limited opportunities in that niche. However, once a suitable position became available, their response and client matchmaking were commendable, making the wait worthwhile. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
