I didnt find any major thing and there is no downside for toptal

Providing me with better projects where the current market demands with enterprise clients.

The best thing about Toptal and the experience I had so far, is that I found lots of other freelancers, with different backgrounds and different cultures with which I shared knowledge and made a network. The platform is almost all automated and you just have to start, find a good client and do your best

The application process for the job is not really clear and transparent to us in my opinion

I was searching for freelancing remote jobs, paid as they should for a professional like me, and Toptal has the right tools and client base to help me on this task.

I've been freelancing for eight years, and Toptal is one step ahead of all other platforms I've tried. They have some of the best clients with exciting and challenging projects. Toptal has a support team for literally anything one can think of. They also have one of the most active and helpful communities I've seen. Some other things that I like are professional development opportunities and ease of receiving payments (you can get a virtual card, order Toptal physical card, or simply transfer money to your account). Salaries are much higher than in any platform I used. Toptal also has a referral program. Another great thing is the TopVolenteer program which connects top-level professionals from the Toptal network to projects with great causes.

It was a bit hard to pass the vetting, but it's totally worth it.

Thanks to the hard vetting process, there are only high-level professionals in Toptal's network, so my application for a project is not lost in a pile of applications from inexperienced developers. I also spend less time finding the next project (I get hired in 1 of every two applications) with high salary

Toptal has been a game-changer for me in the world of freelancing. One of the standout features is the seamless financial service they provide. With Toptal, I never have to worry about contracts or deposits before and after projects. This financial security has not only eased my mind but also given me the confidence to focus on what I do best - delivering quality work to my clients. The exclusivity of the platform and the exceptional user interface and user experience of both the website and the app have been instrumental in my success. Toptal's exclusivity ensures that I'm part of a community of top-tier freelancers, and the user-friendly interface makes applying to projects incredibly easy. It's clear that Toptal values both its clients and freelancers, making the entire process smoother and more efficient. Lastly, I'd like to express my heartfelt gratitude to all the coaches and support staff at Toptal. Their guidance and assistance have been invaluable on my freelancing journey. Toptal is not just a platform; it's a supportive ecosystem that empowers freelancers to excel. Thank you, Toptal!

The Third-party payment system called Payoneer.

Toptal has truly transformed the way I perceive freelance work and the process of finding freelancing opportunities. Prior to joining this platform, I had a somewhat traditional view of freelancing as a sporadic and uncertain endeavor. However, Toptal's approach to freelancing has shattered those preconceptions. Toptal doesn't just offer freelance jobs; it provides a gateway to a world of high-quality, reliable projects. The rigorous vetting process ensures that both clients and freelancers are of the highest caliber. This, in turn, has redefined my perception of freelancing as a dependable and lucrative career path. Moreover, the user-friendly interface and the abundance of resources available on Toptal have made it incredibly easy to discover and apply for projects that align with my expertise and interests. It has turned the daunting task of finding freelance opportunities into a streamlined and efficient process. In essence, Toptal has changed the way I look at freelancing. It's no longer just about "gig work"; it's a dynamic and fulfilling career choice with a supportive community and endless possibilities. Toptal has redefined what it means to be a freelancer in the modern age, and I couldn't be more grateful for the opportunities it has opened up for me.

Toptal platform is the best freelancing platform I have ever worked with. The entire hiring workflow is like a breeze from job search to matching to managing payments.

As a freelance platform for independent contractors it does the job efficiently. The only thing that could improve is providing more long term engagements.

As a freelance software developer, Toptal has provided me with work opportunities, it benefits me because it's total remote work with decent hourly rates

The service is excellent, from the experience on the website to the attention they provide. Always ready to help and facilitate everything. The person we got through the platform has been a great support and guide for the company. I would recommend it a thousand times.

I like everything. No feedback for now!

Setup the right way the finance department in our startup.

I must say I'm pleasantly surprised with Toptal after using Upwork unsuccessfully. Highly recommend dev Vipul Bhardwaj. Right to the point. Your gateway to highly personalized large language model / natural language processing chains, and superpowered development thanks to using LangChain. https://www.toptal.com/z9QRMTr/worlds-top-talent They can be your ChatGPT or Claude+ interpreter (or any others). And if you need more than developers they've got you covered there too. Lots of time to see how it feels and find the right person for the job before you're out of pocket. Really pleasant and easy experience from start to finish. https://linkedin.com/in/vipulbhj/ https://github.com/vipulbhj Cheers to onboarding team Pablo Cardenas and Madison Mascali too.

Occasional issues with the UI. They might consider switching video clients to Google Meet or Zoom. Might be good to have three or more suggested consultants when getting started.

Creating a cutting edge version of my vision of a product. I'd tried Upwork or WordPress on my own and it just didn't have the functionally I needed. Better to have a lightweight and fast product that is streamlined to do exactly what you need.

Toptal impresses me with its diverse and challenging projects that allow me to showcase my coding skills and expertise.

I honestly can't think of any significant drawbacks with Toptal. The platform consistently exceeds my expectations in terms of professionalism and support.

Toptal solves the challenge of finding clients by offering a vast network of reputable clients, while its streamlined project management processes save me time and effort in organizing routine work.

Great pool of jobs and talent. The payments are on schedule, and the Toptal staff is always there to help you along the way.

Not many companies in niche-s. Such as gamedev, VR/AR/MR post jobs.

Connecting with top clients, handling the finances and legals, insuring the finances.

At Toptal, you get the opportunity to collaborate with the most exceptional professionals worldwide, prioritizing excellence and leaving the remaining tasks to the Toptal team.

Sometimes there are fewer projects to take on!

Finding a client in US and Urepoe is not easy, but with Toptal, if talent is qualified to get a project, finding a client is super easy.

I love the high touch level of service and that their talent is top notch.

I have had an excellent experience to date and there is nothing that I dislike.

I have created a new venture and Toptal is my partner to build the MVP.

People are just so nice and helpful. Have had a constant stream of work since I began.

Their algorithm for matching jobs to talent could be better.

They have provided a great variety of jobs from around the world.

Toptal is by far the best freelance platform I have been involved with so far. The support they offer is 10/10, payment is guaranteed, and staff works hard to fill talents with enough work. As a freelancer, Toptal is your best way to focus on actual work rather than searching for clients, ensuring you get paid, etc.

So far my experience with Toptal is so good that it is hard to come up with something negative. I am aware that Toptal takes a cut for the services it offers me - therefore clients are paying more for my designs, but that is to be expected - the service that Toptal is giving me for that cut is more than satisfactory.

Finding clients Ensuring payment Scheduling calls with potential clients before active engagement Toptal is benefiting me in a way that I can focus on my work as a product designer rather than on the "sales, legal, accountant" part of being a freelancer.

Toptal is great for following - Timely Payment - They organize local meetup where you can meet with other freelance and increase your networking - Great client to work with, client are really understanding and explain the task and answer all query you have - Toptal support is up to the mark, whatever query you have you get in time response - Great Leaning opportunities This is really a great opportunity to work with Toptal and grow with it.

Their is nothing to dislike about Toptal

Toptal Help to find quality client, The client understand the software development work flow and are easy to work with Toptal payment is always on time, which is really great

Toptal makes it very easy for me to get clients to work with. From creating a great resume/portfolio to helping one with tips in an interview, the whole process just feels awesome.

I can't think of any part of Toptal that doesn't work well at the moment. They offer very great service.

Toptal helps connect me with such clients that need my skills. This helps me tremendously as a host of clients use the platform to look for talents like me.
