Not recommend to anyone Not recommend to anyone, nor freelancer neither clients. Was the best freelance platform. Now it's the worst. - Average bid cost is about 3$ while average project cost is 10$. - About 85% of projects posted are fake. - Service fee is 2 times larger than it was year ago. - Awful support (looks like it doesn't exist at all). - Scammers scammers scammers. Extremely greedy company who ruins their business themselves.

I dont want to share my privacy on Internet. Recently, the mandatory identity verification issue it has enforced has been a complete fiasco. Really, why aren't the authorities putting a stop to this? Employers(or upwork) are asking for personal information from us because they don't believe where freelancers live. I don't find it ethical for them to request intimate details such as our ID number, personal photo, another selfie on top of that, our date of birth, gender, nationality, and when our passport will expire. No one should have to trust anyone completely. There's no guarantee we'll find clients, yet we're giving information to strangers. It's unsettling.

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"...

Thieves and scammers Absolutely to be avoided.... A den of scammers from Pakistan nigeria and other remote places . I was scammed for $100. I won the dispute but Upwork refuses to give me the money back. Makes excuse after excuse blaming PayPal . They are a den of thieves . Stay away from them .

Great services. Great services. I am buying on UpWork for 2 years now, and never got dissapointed. Yesterday I received my last order (job completed) and I am more then satisfied. Looking forward for a even longer relationship.
