What Users Love About the App

“They let you work remotely and the rate is decent. Communication is good and directions are always clear. The content is generally interesting.”

“Team leaders are very eager to help. Flexible working hours; you work as much or as little as you want. Projects help me learn new things.”

“Good explanations about your duty for each project. Caring about community. You have the ability to work from home.”

What Users Dislike About the App

“Low wages and it is hard to secure a task (very competitive).”

“The pay can be a little low. There aren’t always projects to work on, so there is a lot of down-time between projects.”

“Projects are fcfs basis and few and far between. That’s probably their biggest con. There is also a lack of feedback. You need to utilize their web-based platform to do the work so it’s not ideal for those who are already experienced, and it won’t prepare those who are not experienced enough.”
