“From day one, freelancers were our blueprint for success. This was our master plan.”
“As our team needs more support, Upwork is a critical resource, whether we onboard talent from our own networks or find skilled professionals on the platform.”
"[Upwork] enables us to have multiple freelancers with different expertise helping us in different locations at any time we need."
“If you have very specific requirements, you can find the right person on Upwork.”
“It’s so important to be able to find the people and skills we need, when we need them—and Upwork helps us do that.”
“Working on Upwork made it easy for me to find great talent to create a new industry web and mobile app.”
“Upwork enables us to differentiate ourselves from our competitors and produce content at a higher caliber.”
“Our experience with the freelance economy and Upwork has given us the basis for continual production in the future and even larger scaling of our team and department within Microsoft.”
“One of the biggest advantages of utilizing freelancers is finding a great variety of talent with different skills. And bringing on new talent quickly as our needs change."
“Through Upwork, I got access to high-caliber talent on terms that fit. I dreamed of being an entrepreneur but, like most female founders, I’m also self-funded; I don’t come from a wealthy family, I have a mortgage, I have an elderly parent I care for. Without the opportunity to work with professionals like [Dr. Kami Anderson] on a part-time basis, we would not have been able to launch. Period.”
“If we weren’t able to turn around talent requests at the quantity, quality, and velocity that we can because of our relationship with Upwork, I think the talent acquisition function would quite quickly be overloaded.”
“Even if [flexible talent] is not the content expert on a course, nearly every course has been touched by one.”
“We can go to Upwork for exactly what we need, no matter what the scope requires. It has changed the way we get work done every day.”
"A lot of universities aren't really innovating. They're kind of just doing what they've always done. So for us, Upwork is a flexible platform that allows us to innovate and do more."
“I love the platform and the amount of talent I have access to. We really couldn’t be this far along without help from the talent on Upwork.”
