Actually, there are a lot of freelance platforms now. And in this huge variety anyone could get lost. So today we have

made kinda TOP-list of the best freelance services. Every service has its characteristics and features and we are ready to meet you with them. Here goes!

  1. Upwork

Everyone, who was interested in freelance at least once, knows Upwork is the most popular remote service. It easy to use, has a wide range of specialists, different possibilities for employers like safe deals, chats and video chats and sharing files with workers, getting qualified proposals. As an employer you are able to pay hourly or at a fixed-price. The main disadvantage is the website’s a bit high withhold. So bear it in you mind while making the deal.

  2. Toptal

Toptal offers to the clients 3% of the top freelancers all over the world. It is also easy for using and has a wide range of perfect professionals. Toptal offers free recruiting, screen-passed specialists and trial period to decide whether the candidate meets your needs, which is very attractive for employees. However, such platform isn’t suitable for small projects.

  3. Beesy.pro

Beesy.pro is a remote service with mostly outsourcing team of freelancers. That makes the platform suitable for both big and small projects. The main advantage is that we offer HR manager to find you a suitable team during 24 hours for 0$, unlike the other platforms that need much more time for this (and it’s not free). Our platform also offers a skill rate system of each specialist,the safe deal and high quality guarantee. The amount of teams is growing day by day. 

  4. YouTeam

This is another platform for hiring teams. The difference is that YouTeam offers specialists, who are not self-employed, but already work in some agencies (named “their partners”). So the clients can hire co-located professionals in case it’s important for them. Besides, the website has a vetting of candidates. So is the Toptal and Upwork, YouTeam isn’t appropriate for small projects.

  5. Aquent

Aquent approved itself as a reliable service, which provides high-skilled developers, designers and marketers. It suggests mainly professionals with 2+ years of work experience. And that’s really true, but you also can find newcome specialists. The website has a well-organised page with recalls from both employers and employees. However, Aquent is more suitable for short-term projects on mostly marketing direction. 

  6. Fiverr

On Fiverr you can post any project on any topic and with any needed professional skills. The entry point of the platform is 5$ for so called gigs, and this is the lowest one you could find anywhere. So if you need a quite small project to be done at the lowest price - go on Fiverr. It also has a good rate system based on e-Bay style. But the main disadvantage is that there is no vetting processes.

  7. Gun.io

Gun.io is a freelance marketplace with only developers. It has a strict vetting process which includes application qualifications screen, technical exam, live technical interview, reference endorsements, certification and onboarding. The platform suggests a range of high-qualified and experienced developers and seems reliable for employers. The minuses of the website are no client’s recalls and a long registration process.
