Long story short, I was in search of a job of a web developer. I tried to find local job in Russia but the prices companies offered for my job was unsatisfying for me. I had an upwork account and decided to try it working there. I grew up fast during 1 month. Picked up the first client and now I am having a bunch of clients and a lot of job. I raised my skills as a developer and come closer to my life goals much faster than I expected. Highly recommend this platform especially if you have some skills.

I am a video editor and I have only recently registered on upwork, but I have already received two orders that allowed me to earn good money. I have tried to offer my services on the local freelance exchanges in Russia and Ukraine before upwork, but I have not received any orders for a long time.
It seems to me that upwork offers freelancers great opportunities to make money.

It's really a great website for people who desire to work remotely and earn money from their skills and talents. This Website provides you 100% of safety during contracts. It's pleasure for me to work on this platform. Upwork brings me only positive emotions! Convenient, Fast, Safety.

Upwork is a great website that offers services and jobs to freelancers like me. It helps us to reach out to our clients easily and our monetary allowances are very safe. Well-recommended! Loving it forever!

Nothing else has lowered the barriers to freelancing as much as Upwork has. I had skills and experience, but no qualifications or certifications - and it didn't matter. I was able to find clients and start earning more than I had in my previous career. It's important to take time to learn how the system works, to continue to develop professionally, and to network and find other channels for finding clients, but Upwork got me going and kept me going for a long time like nothing else could.

I am a starting Freelancer. It is hard to find jobs at the beginning but Upwork gives very good tools to learn how to create a good profile and winning proposals. Of course at the beginning is very difficult to get jobs because some of them need experienced freelancers, or because you don't know hot to reach the client.
Only thing that I don't like about Upwork is that it charges 20% to the Freelancer when you have jobs for less than $500. I think for starters its too much since we are trying to make a living of it.

Upwork is a very serious and professional website for freelancers and anyone who wants to do this kind of business. I warmly recommend everyone who has the will and who is persistent in their intentions.

This is just an other semi fraud company first of all they will deduct 20% from your earning, and they will randomly create blocks on your account.

I had 60 connects available i used just 20 and got account suspended, reason told by site administration was that i 5 to 10 contract application.

They allow 60 connects and by just using 5 of them you get you account suspended better not uses this website waste of time and may be a future scam in making.

I have used this site for several freelance projects. I also help clients in my non-profit to start their own businesses and have recommended Upwork to them. Because of this Upwork suspended my account claiming I had multiple accounts. They will not tell me why they think this but listed several of my clients as "linked."
I explained the situation and asked why they thought this. They are all separate individuals with their own accounts and verified financial accounts. However Upwork still tried to demand copies of driver licenses and bank statements to "prove" these were individuals.
This is an absolute violation of privacy and completely unreasonable not to mention unnecessary. I will have to find a new site for myself and my many clients to use.

In today time up-work is one of the best platform for the beginners and for the experienced as well, when you are doing business on up-work you don't have need of any job even you can be a entrepreneur by making numbers of clients.

Upwork gives you a reliable, secured and free world to work. If you want to improve yourself, learn new things to do the jobs or earn money by your skills, Upwork is the place you need. Easy to reach jovs/clients, clear job descriptions, reliable clients and trusted website. You are sure while offering a proposal, accepting an offer, doing the job or with payments. Upwork has thought everything for you!

So you find a freelancer that might fit the bill, you cannot direct message them without an upgraded account. You can "Invite" them which means you have to post a job to all freelancers, not just to the person you are interested in. In order to direct message the freelancer, I had to use the Hire option but I still don't really know if I want to hire this person since we haven't even exchanged even one msg. Goofy system (by design).

They suspended me for sending too many proposal when in real life situations that's like sending many CV to many potential clients. What sort of people would suspend you for actually trying to find a successful contact for you to start work? What a horrible site. Turns out I'm not the only one who had problem with the site. To summaries my experience with UPWORK.com they are not helpful at all. Not helpful to those who are genuinely looking for freelance work. Giving them 1 star isn't even worth it. They deserve no star.
