My review of freelancer, never appear on his profile... hhmm wonder why, maybe because its not positive?
The reviews of freelancers might be fraud. First i hired a freelancer that onyl had VERY good reviews. It turned out, that the freelancer's ability was VERY limited. Sadly lesson learned and 3K dollars burned.
Freelancer was very agressive to get paid (should have know better).

There is for sure some good developers there. But they might offer low hour rate. BUT they take 3-4 times as long and you end up paying at least the same (often more). Its way better and cheaper if you use a professionel company in your own country.

Most say the have experience in alot of areas, but FACT is, most are self learned and only have very basic skills.

The work the freelancer did was VERY basic( could have dont that myself) often had to tell him and show pics many times, before he knew what to do... no wait... he never knew. When he could not figure out the work, he just in the end told me i had to do it myself. WHAT! Why even pay him to do it then?

Use your money on developer firms in your own country. Much easier communication and in the end faster and at least same price
