This upwork do not appreciate their freelancers. They make you feel like your a crap, even though they earn money from YOU. Well not anymore, I will go directly to clients and get paid for what my talent is really worth.

I AGREE TO THIS GUY! ITS VERY TRUE!

Experienced freelancers are dying on this platform.

Their ranking system punishes freelancers if the client does not leave feedback - Your fault.

Their ranking system will punish you if there are any problems with a job.

With good intentions I was looking for work writing, editing and reviewing for media sites. Here is an example of some of the work offered on UpWork. First employer: I need a 40 page e-book written in 2 weeks for $50. Second employer: For my blogsite I need 2-4 blogs per month (1,000 words each) to be paid at the rate of $10 each. Must have a minimum of a masters degree. Third employer: Need a tutor for my bratty kid to train in the sciences. Will pay $5 per session. These a facetious representation yet they come close to the mark to the job offerings on UpWork. This company keeps a minimum of 20% of the wage. My advice: Upwork is a disaster paying slave wage with potential employers who are either nutcases or live under a rock. Many better sites stay light years away from this one.

Excellent platform to work with Upwork and find new clients with minimum effort, payment protection and Upwork team support is Awesome. I and my team is lucky, we are the part of Upwork, Thanks to the entire Upwork team who are always with us in any problem, issue!

Upwork is helping me in showing my skills and gained knowledged from my previous work experiences while earning.
The app is legit with freelancers looking for a legal jobs as well as employers looking for a freelancer's superb services! Keep up the good work Upwork!

What I recently found is that the elance may have a team who post the project and yes fake projects. Now if we bid on this project there is no response and the connect is gone too. Like this they sell connects for more profit.
Recently I applied for a job and I was awarded and after that I could not post any messages to the client. Now this issues happened and i did not got any message from the client too. So to keep my profile clean I closed the job. Now since then they have blocked me. Now how the hell do I know. So Elance is Going to be a big SCAM. In coming days Scam from Elance is going to be famous. Elance Scam as I searched and found tons of result. This confirms that the elance is really doing something fishy to trap users and loot their money throught selling the connects and posting the fake projects.

I had my 5 star account closed without any warning. I was informed that my client satisfaction was low and they would not reconsider my account. That was in September. Since then I have had numerous emails from them telling me that my account satisfaction is low and I should try to improve it. The latest email states that I need to pay a client back $9 as they found I had not completed the job to satisfaction. Fine. I just wanted Elance out of my life so I agreed to pay. Now I have been told I need to do a wire transfer as they don't accept PayPal. So I need to pay $45 in fees and drive a 4 hour round trip to sort out a money transfer. Yeah right. Elance can go jump in a lake.

Elance got me started writing professionally. I made sure my proposals stood out from the rest… And I was able to gain a couple of good writing jobs that have been paying very well. There is a lot of competition on Elance but if you take the time to write a good proposal and show them just what you can do then you should be able to get what you're looking for.
The fee they receive is a little bit high but if it wasn't for elance I wouldn't be making the money that I am making today.

I always love to work on Upwork. When I started my career as a freelancer I build my profiles on various platforms but now I only work on Upwork. I enjoyed working here. And I think it is more secure than any other platform. Upwork community guides in the batter way whenever a problem raise. And I feel much more secure here. And I suggest all the people work here than any other platform. All the terms and conditions are properly explained. And guided by the community. One important thing Upwork Webinar is a great platform to learn for newbies how they can work in a better way on Upwork. Everything is explained by using examples of Upwork success stories.

Recently, hired the team from India and it ended up $#*!ty and not completed project I have complained about the freelancer to upwork and they could not help. And I have ended my project and tried to get the files that has been so far and I have paid 90% of the total project cost. And upwork could not even helped to the files. They kept say "We understand your situation blah blah " but nothing was use-full. I have left feedback for the freelancer and I did not know that freelancer can delete the client's feed which was worse than I expected UPWORK"S service.
