Upwork is a joke Upwork is a joke. We got scammed and opened a dispute. The scammer is not responding and Upwork is literally saying "he is not responding so we are closing your dispute in his favor"...

Complete waste of time and money A complete waste of time and money. Their pro membership gives you more connects, but it doesn't help you get work. When you're starting from scratch its literally impossible to get work without any reviews. You can be the most talented, experienced professional in your field but you'll lose out to a cheap off-shore solution. I've spent hundred of dollars on membership, sending proposals, cutting costs to the point of it not even being worth it, and still no interest.

Stupid morons they blocked me for no… Stupid morons they blocked me for no reason!

tl;dr Upwork simply dont. tl;dr Upwork simply dont. Upwork is a very bad place to work with clients. I tried to offer severl projects. As soon as one project was accepted by a freelancer the site suspended my profile. Support is not helping at all. Their responses are not related to the issue. Verification process is failing for unknown reasons, no feedback. Tickets are marked as solved without being. Communication with freelancer who started with the project is not possible, as they Upwork denies any communication. Long story short, i went to another site which is much better.

Lots of good experiences over many years I've used Upwork for many years for all kinds of projects and it really is pretty good. Perhaps if you are having trouble with your projects perhaps it is because you are picking the wrong clients or freelancers? ...that isn't really Upwork's fault. I will say Upwork login/password procedures are quite awkward. More than any other website I have used I have had password issues. The issue when resetting password it asks you to verify in app ...which is no good if you are not logged into the app. Extremely frustrating
