Fiverr Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

In my opinion, Fiverr's Alarming Disregard for User Security and Unethical Credit Practices. My experience on Fiverr has been nothing short of a nightmare, compelling me to leave the lowest possible rating. Two crucial issues have persisted, causing severe stress and frustration. Scam Epidemic: I think Fiverr's claim of a stringent vetting process for freelancers is a far cry from reality. I think the platform is infested with scammers, and despite numerous reports, the situation remains unresolved. The lack of concrete actions to eradicate this scam epidemic raises serious questions about Fiverr's commitment to user security. Unethical Credit Practices:

Upon falling victim to a scam, Fiverr's response was to offer a credit instead of a refund. This credit, a mere gesture, comes with an appalling expiration period of 90 days. The refusal to refund my hard-earned money is not only unethical but reeks of a blatant disregard for users' financial well-being. Fiverr's insistence on pushing users into using credits, coupled with the arbitrary 90-day limit, is nothing short of a cash-grab tactic. I believe this exploitative approach only exacerbates the distress caused by the initial scam. My attempts to seek a reasonable resolution have been met with indifference and a lack of empathy from Fiverr's customer support. The complete disregard for the severity of these issues is both shocking and disappointing. In light of these alarming practices, I have no choice but to assign a 1-star rating. I implore Fiverr to reconsider its stance, prioritize user security, and promptly refund the money owed. Until then, I cannot in good conscience recommend Fiverr to anyone seeking a secure and ethical freelance platform. This review serves as a stern warning to potential users and a call for Fiverr to rectify its practices immediately.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

It is one of the best freelancing apps. It helps me to find our freelancers at a reasonable price. I use it to hire freelancers for different tasks (graphical designing, content writing, data entry, blog writing). This app is time-saving.

Likelihood to Recommend

It is well suited for me to hire freelancers at any time at any price rate.

It blocks my account without telling me any reason. This is very problematic.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I feel that this is on one of the worst platforms that you can work with either as a Buyer or as a Seller, and one of the worst Businesses in general!

Likelihood to Recommend

As a seller, firstly they will let you run your services as long as you need, charging the most famous highest rate ever of 20% and another from the Buyer. In my experience, they would anytime suspend your gigs and kick you out especially when their algorithm makes your gigs shine on top of Buyer choices "unless" you start to "spend" what you earned on their platform, promoting your gigs, or taking training or whatsoever! The simplest way of doing it is picking up the easiest reason "Not complying with our Community Standard / Integrity / Policy " !! A policy that I doubt any of their staff read or understood! Or whatever comes on their way !! They tend to find all the ways to diminish your business and they would accept anything from anyone of their Buyers that helps on that as long as it is against you! P.S: Their decisions cannot be "undone" and not "discussable."

As a Buyer, nothing special on the platform except a huge enormous security system that hinders innovation and the proper discussions with Sellers !! On another similar platform, you can Video call the Seller through any meeting app! In Fiverr, the maximum would be to find a data entry specialist! They are trying to expand .. true, but with their mentality in how business and innovation are being managed, how would you expect to have a Business Plan through a seller from the USA, who is not vetted and probably staying in Bangladesh and not the cute lady that you see her profile photo! Only cause the platform reads the IP address, easy to bluff!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I utilize Fiverr as both a buyer and seller, although I started out on the platform as the former. Since that time, I've also begun to market several niche solutions of my own on the platform. As a solopreneur, when I started my business I had to cut corners in securing web design, logo creation, or other similar services due to costs. I discovered Fiverr less than a year after it was founded, so it was still operating under the getting anything done for $5.00 concept. Over the years, not only have I procured superior service from a global range of providers, but I have saved money by engaging these nimble and independent contractors whose pricing is significantly lower than mainstream offerers. In addition, differences in currency values also contribute to more affordable costs.

After experiencing these advantages of the platform as a buyer, I made the decision to add selling on Fiverr to my portfolio. Consequently, I offer select consulting and writing services to an international market. These products are great ways to introduce my business to a new group of clients who may be prospects for my full suite of services.

Likelihood to Recommend

Fiverr is well suited for a solo practitioner or small companies that require cost-effective services and short turnaround times. It would be less appropriate for larger companies with dedicated staff. On the seller side, I'd like to have a better idea as to the market I'm reaching so that I could better target by services. But all in all, Fiver has been great for me and I would highly recommend it.
