Great talent, pricey though

The freelancers are top-notch, but you do pay a premium for their services. If you can afford it, I’d recommend them.

Good talent but pricey

I found some really skilled developers on Toptal, but their rates are definitely on the higher side. Overall, I had a positive experience but keeping the budget in mind is essential.

Pretty good experience

Toptal has some talented people. My designer was pretty great and delivered on time. Just a minor hiccup with the initial onboarding, but it was resolved fast.

Good freelancers, but expensive

I found excellent talent, but the costs for the service are quite high. If you're on a budget, be prepared to stretch it a bit.

Solid talent but slow process

I got a decent developer through Toptal, but the process took longer than I thought. The vetting is thorough, which is good, but I wish it was faster. Overall, I'm happy with the work, but not the wait.

Decent service but...

I found a good developer, but there were some communication issues. They were responsive, but things got lost in translation sometimes. Overall okay, but could be better.

Mostly good matches

I’ve had a few solid hires from Toptal. The vetting process brings in qualified people, but sometimes I had to go through multiple candidates before finding the right fit. Overall, it’s a reliable source for talent.

Good freelancers, but expensive

Great experience with the freelancer I hired. They exceeded my expectations and delivered on time. Only downside was the high fees, but worth it for quality work.
