Waste of Time

It's a waste of time platform, hardly any recommendations for the Job Posting I have posted, and almost every time without fail had issues with signing in, not because of the wrong password.
No it would login, but then I would just stare at a white screen, no dashboard, nothing, nada to see.

In almost 4 weeks I ended up getting 3 applications, only 1 was one that I considered, I wrote to the Person to make a time to have a interview, in over 7 days no response at all. Rather than freedup, its more adminup for me at this point, wouldn't recommend it.

Great people, great work

I've worked with three different people for three different needs (CSS coding, executive assistant, blog writing) through Freeeup and have been happy with the quality of communication and skills of each. Freeeup is freelancer marketplace that delivers on it's promise of high quality talent.

I think they are looking for over qualified people!

I think they are looking for over qualified people!

I was encouraged to apply as a WordPress expert by seeing their details shared on wordpress-development category. As I have been working with WordPress for over 7 years and I have well established freelancing profile on another platform, I thought I had a chance to get selected as a WordPress pro. But I was given a PHP test rather than a WordPress test. I feel that the questions was for a super quality PHP programmer. Yes, WordPress CMS is based on PHP, but to become a WordPress pro, it's not necessary to be a PHP expert. I should be tested for my knowledge on WordPress.

Though they didn't mention exact reason of denial but I feel like they are looking for a car driver who also must know to fly an airplane!  

As they claim of hiring only top 1% freelancers, I feel like to justify that status they need over qualified people.

Excellent Company

Been hiring freelancers with Freeeup for 2 years now, it's an excellent company. They have very affordable rates and you get to choose from the best. Have hired people for photoshop, data entry, marketing, virtual assistants and couldn't be more satisfied with the results delivered. Highly recommend it!

I am so thankful for FreeeUp because they found me a VA who was very smart, loyal, and very hardworking. They did all the hard work for me, and I was not disappointed with the VA they provided for me.

Freeeup up is the best

Freeeup up is the best! We have used them several times over the past few years to hire for specific projects as well as long-term virtual assistants. The Freeeup staff work very quickly and are a pleasure to work with, and they have always connected us up to qualified, good workers for each job.

Freelancer Marketplace Delivering on Promise

About a year ago, I had to let go of my Virtual Assistant (VA) after six months due to poor job performance. I used a company which promised but failed to deliver a qualified candidate (and charged a hefty service fee).

I decided to try another VA after hearing about FreeeUp through Jim Cockrum's My Silent Team Facebook group. I hired a VA from FreeeUp a little over a month ago and have been VERY satisfied with his ability to learn, professionalism, work ethic, and positive attitude. In a short period of time, and with some minimal training, he is beginning to deliver excellent results.

I feel very fortunate to have found my VA, and believe he will become an integral (and much needed) part of my business.

Vastly Superior to the Competition

Previously was using upwork and onlinejobs.ph as a freelancer marketplace. Had a lot of disappointing experiences. Heard about FreeeUp, but never really pulled the trigger for a few months. After hearing more and more friends using them, decided to give it a shot and was really pleased with the result.

Easily found top talent for the job I needed in less than a day. The entire process was really smooth. The english ability, work ethic, and professionalism of my outsourced hire was much better than what I was used to. FreeeUp is a freelancer marketplace I definitely recommend to others and look forward to using it for more projects.

Goodbye Upwork ;)

Freeeup.com is absolutely changing the game when it comes to freelancer marketplaces online. I have worked on (and hired on) multiple different platforms in the past and I have had so many issues finding the right person to work on my projects. My very first hire with Freeeup.com, they matched me with the perfect contractor and I didn't even have to review any resumes...they did that part for me and delivered me the perfect freelancer for the work I needed done. Highly recommend trying out your next hire on this site and watching the magic happen!

Great, Affordable Service with High Quality Freelancers

I wanted to work with talented graphic designers, but my clients didn't have the budget for top talent in the US. Most turn to Fiverr in these instances, but it often leads to a generic low quality design. A friend turned me on to FreeeUp, and I've been using it ever since. I get access to a Freelancer Marketplace that aggregates vetted talent from around the globe at a wide variety of skill levels and price points. It has proven to be the goldilocks solution for my clients' graphic design needs, and I'll continue to rely on the service going forward.

The Best Freelancer Marketplace

FreeeUp is the best freelancer marketplace. The clients are of good quality, and the support is second to none. Work is in abundance and I'd recommend freeeup.com to everyone!

Freeeup is on top list for Freelancer Marketplaces

Just joined Freeeup Freelancer Marketplace last July 25 and after few days I did start to apply. On Aug. 2 I have my first job on a fix rate and just today I got half of the payment. It's pretty amazing how the approach is different compared to other marketplace when you apply for a job. I feel it's more personal as you have to do a custom email introduction and an assistant will email you what are the detailed requirement for the job besides what posted.

I can really recommend it to clients and my colleagues as well.

Amazing Virtual Assistants

I run a small online business and reached out to FreeeUp for assistance with my social media, because that just makes my brain hurt. The VA who we hired from FreeeUp was amazing. She walked with us through a name change and rebranding and made our social media pages look amazing! After a little bit of guidance we were able to let her run our social media hands off, which allowed us to take care of other parts of our business. We lost her earlier this year, and miss her greatly. But what she taught us was invaluable. If we could get her back, we would hire her back in a heartbeat. But we would use FreeeUp again for other needs.
