At Web 2.0 Expo, InformationWeek's David Berlind conducts a "ReviewCam" of oDesk.com's online service for matching up technology contractors with organizations bidding out jobs. oDesk CEO Gary Swart was on-hand for the ReviewCam and says the difference between his service and others is in how trust and payment is enforced.

  • Now oDesk provides rather hight cost and long term projects.

    Incomparable to other freelance marketplaces.

    Just check oConomy and search for jobs in particular IT areas.

    Very impressive...

  • Well, on odesk there are very low cost biddings and is not attractive anymore. Instead ezdia is providing a better platform. You may like to try out ezdia.

  • good

  • im working right now in Odesk and a I'm so so happy with the results!!

  • *Full disclosure: I work for oDesk Marketing*

    Thanks for sharing this video, David. :) Having used the system in the past, as both a buyer and provider, oDesk offers great 2-way protection! For Buyers: they can see when providers are doing (or not doing) the job correctly BEFORE major losses occur. For Providers: get guaranteed payment - if a buyer is not satisfied with the product (see above), they're still paid for their time.

    As both a buyer and provider, I liked having those guarantees!

  • Sounds very good
