"Upwork connects you to professionals that can help you turn around projects fast"

5/5

What do you like best about Upwork?

Upwork allows our team to easily find professional designers, editors and copy writers for projects that we need quick turn around time on. Rather than sifting through resumes or seeking out individual people online, Upwork makes it easy to search for what you need, set up projects for professionals to apply for and review their work in a time-saving and effective way. We have been using Upwork for several years now and have worked with data entry specialists, video editors, copy writers and more. Upwork makes the process of finding a digital creator to work with an easy one. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Upwork?

Once you find a professional you have to make sure to turn off applications to make sure that you don't continue to receive email notifications about inquiries. It's not so much a downside as it is an extra step to take but it is worth the trade off in finding someone you can work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
