    VERY useful for small companies where one person does an entire job/task. May be less useful for larger companies, as it would be difficult to maintain, and there are usually teams to cover the slack. Also good for tech purposes. Our tech people constantly create Guru cards in order to help us learn to do back-end things.

    Without hesitation, we can recommend this program, as it has allowed us to have the best remote staff we have had in the company. YouTeam always responded to any eventuality that may arise and was always attentive to our requirements and demands.

    Pros
    Guru.com
    • The segmentation of information into Collections, boards and individual cards allows you to keep a good control and organization of information contained within.
    • An add-on app for Slack and a Chrome extension mean you don't even need to have the Guru.com site open to still be able to access all of your stored information.
    • The ability to allow some or all users to create & edit cards adds value and strengthens the team collaboration.

    • It has very efficient consultants who ask the perfect questions so that the shortlisting of candidates is exactly what we are looking for. I also like that the whole process is done in a maximum of one week. That is, we already have the qualified personnel hired and working in one week.
    • The program gives us in a short time a list of all the candidates, with all the information we need about them, so that we can choose the ones we want to interview.
    • It has a large database of expert engineers in different areas such as big data, web development, applications, and more, so we have benefited from the expert staff they have offered us.

    Cons
    Guru.com
    • Relatively high fees taken out of earnings
    • Fake clients still get through, which causes a headache
    • Having to pay to get your bid higher up in the list of freelancers makes it even more costly

    • We had drawbacks with some of the selected people, but the YouTeam team quickly helped us with the drawback by providing a new list.
    • In the introductory interview, they overlooked to ask the location; that's why the list they sent was of candidates who did not have the same time zone, making remote work more complicated.
    • Although they guarantee that those hired will stay for an average of 2 years, the truth is that we lost a good employee in less than that time.
