Worksome Reviews & Product Details

Worksome is the external workforce platform. Most companies have a system for their permanent team, an HRIS, but not for their external workforce, which usually runs on spreadsheets and email. Worksome is that system: one place to source, engage, classify, and pay a company's contractors, freelancers, consultants, and talent sourced through staffing agencies, with compliance built into the workflow and payments across 150+ countries and all 50 US states. Worksome is built for enterprises running a real external workforce, and for the teams that manage it day to day, including procurement, talent, finance, and workforce operations. These teams often struggle with the same problems: fragmented spreadsheets, manual onboarding, compliance risk across different markets, and slow or error-prone payments to a diverse pool of contractors and freelancers. Worksome replaces that patchwork with a single system of record that gives them the visibility and control they need over external talent. The platform covers the full lifecycle in one place. Source talent across staffing agencies, platforms, and your own private talent pool. Engage and onboard workers with compliant contracts and background checks. Classify workers accurately, with deep, indemnified compliance support for UK IR35 and US worker classification across all 50 states, so legal risk is reduced from the start of every engagement. Pay contractors and freelancers in 150+ countries with tax handling and consolidated invoicing built in. On top of this, Worksome Intelligence surfaces spend, risk, and workforce insights, and the platform's open API and integrations connect it to the HRIS, VMS, ERP, and procurement systems companies already run. More than 350 enterprises, including Publicis Groupe, Carlsberg, and Novo Nordisk, use Worksome to manage and pay their external talent. At its core a Freelance Management System (FMS), Worksome also offers Agent of Record (AOR) and Employer of Record (EOR) services, so companies can run their external workforce and employees side by side, scaling a flexible workforce with confidence and without the administrative burden that usually comes with it.

"Effortless Freelancer Engagement, Needs Better Role Matching"

4/5

What do you like best about Worksome?

I like that Worksome is easy and unobtrusive to use. I appreciate that they regularly approach me with opportunities rather than me having to reach out. The initial setup was very easy and simple, taking just a few minutes using my online profiles. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Worksome?

The understanding of what roles are appropriate for me aren't always accurate from my background. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mathias Linnemann of Worksome

Glad it's been easy to use and that opportunities are coming to you rather than the other way around. That's how it should work.

On role relevance: it's worth double-checking that your skills and experience are fully up to date on your profile. That has a big impact on which briefs get matched to you.

Thanks for the review.

"Smooth Invoicing with Excellent Support"

5/5

What do you like best about Worksome?

I like that someone is there to talk to if needed, which makes the experience reassuring. The ease of seeing job numbers and invoices is another plus, simplifying the invoicing process. Also, the client walked us through the setup, and it was very smooth. I'd definitely recommend Worksome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Worksome?

I don't find it easy to see job numbers and invoices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mathias Linnemann of Worksome

Really glad the onboarding and support experience worked well for you. Having a real person to talk to when you need it is something we're committed to keeping as we grow.

On the invoicing visibility point, sounds like it's a mixed experience for you. We're continuously improving the dashboard to make things like job numbers and invoice tracking easier to find at a glance. If there's a specific view that would help, our support team would love to hear it.

Thanks for recommending us.

"Easy Payments and Tracking for Non-UK Freelancers, top assistance when needed"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Worksome?

How easy it was for me to charge and keep track of the payment as a non-UK based freelancer Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Worksome?

Nothing I was unhappy about, the onboarding process was set as I started my freelance mission, so quite a bit to take on on the first day, but then it was done for good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mathias Linnemann of Worksome

edit

It's great to hear that being a non-UK freelancer on Worksome has been a smooth experience for you - making international payments feel "local" is exactly what we're going for. I hear you on that first-day admin load; we try to front-load the compliance heavy lifting so that once you're in, you can focus entirely on your design work without ever having to worry about it again.

"Super Responsive Customer Service That Resolves Issues Fast"

4/5

What do you like best about Worksome?

Super responsive customer service that quickly resolves issues and handles requests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Worksome?

The user interface is too intricate, and it slows down the steps needed to request a payment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mathias Linnemann of Worksome

edit

It's great to hear that our support team has been so responsive for you - they take a lot of pride in resolving things quickly. I hear you loud and clear on the UI feeling a bit too intricate when you're just trying to get paid. We're currently looking at ways to strip back the steps in the payment request flow to make it much faster for you.

3.5/5

What do you like best about Worksome?

I find Worksome very easy to use with no confusion at all. It's easy to log in and the overall user experience is simple and clean. The initial setup was very straightforward, and they provide an easy-to-read guide that helps with the process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent, Easy Payments Experience"

4/5

What do you like best about Worksome?

I find the ease of getting paid to be excellent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Worksome?

I find the user interface quite hard to navigate. Although there have been incremental changes, I still struggle to find what I’m looking for quickly and easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Mathias Linnemann of Worksome

edit

We're hearing you on the navigation, and it's something we're actively fixing. Payments being easy is non-negotiable. The rest of the platform should feel just as effortless.

On that note, we recently launched Worksome Intelligence, our AI layer that lets you ask questions about your contracts, payment status, and invoices in plain language instead of clicking through menus. Think of it as a shortcut past the navigation entirely. It's rolling out now and should help with exactly the kind of friction you're describing.

Thanks for the feedback.
