G2 Crowd’s 2021 Best Software Awards are finally out, and we are excited to announce that Upwork has placed #15 on the “Top 100 Best Global Sellers” list in 2021 and as #1 “Best Freelancer Platform” on G2’s Leaderboard.

Upwork works tirelessly to provide the best possible service to our customers, and it’s their feedback that plays a vital role in our ability to fulfill our mission: To create economic opportunities so people have better lives.

“Every year over quarter-million searches in Google are focusing on ‘Upwork reviews’ topics,” notes Kirill Kronrod, Upwork SEO Director, “It's essential for us to facilitate customer feedback on sites like G2 to streamline our products and services.”

G2 Crowd is a peer-to-peer review site that empowers businesses to compare user reviews and pricing for software and other IT services. Like The People’s Choice Awards but for tech companies, Best Software Awards leverages authentic, timely reviews from real users to rank the world’s best software companies and products.

“This isn’t a subjective list based on a few peoples’ opinions,” explains G2 CEO, Godard Abel. “With the highest traffic and engagement, largest selection of product and services, and highest quality data, G2 analyzes more than 4 million data points to determine which products and companies make the list.”

Placing in the “Top 100 Best Global Sellers” list in 2021 means a lot to us, because it’s based on real reviews. It’s a testament to our ability to provide a global work marketplace where businesses and independent professionals alike are able to forge real working relationships.

“It’s an honor to be recognized as a Best Global Seller and the Best Freelancer Platform by users,” says Eric Gilpin, Senior Vice President of Sales at Upwork. “We’re proud to provide people with a home where they can grow their businesses, take control of their careers, and create meaningful work relationships. This recognition from customers validates our strategy and commitment to helping both businesses and independent professionals unlock their true potential.”

We’re incredibly grateful to the businesses and independent professionals who helped us transform Upwork into the world’s work marketplace. To the customers that have reviewed us on G2 Crowd, thank you! We appreciate your feedback and will continue to use it to push the boundaries of the future of work.
