Likelihood to Recommend If you have an emergency that requires a tech, and you don't have the resources in-house, then it's good to be able to call on these guys. I would never use my affiliation with them as a reason to say "we provide nationwide onsite services" because the techs, in the end, don't answer to you and may not work to your standards. It's definitely a band-aid last-resort, and you should let your clients know if you intend to use them.

Read full review Pros Offers technicians from a large geographical area (most major cities, many smaller cities, a limited international selection). Creating competition - Mixed bag with this one depends on your outlook. Are you in favor of finding the person who will work for bottom dollar? I'll leave that aspect for your personal view. Project Tracking: While I should likely have listed this first and I will say they do a better job than most at this it could use some key upgrades. 1099 filings and fiscal tracking -- They got this much down pat gotta admit. Read full review 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.

Read full review Cons Their mobile platform is not that great. Truthfully, there are some jobs viewable on the mobile under WorkFeed that I cannot apply to because it requires viewing the job from the full website. If a job has requirements such as uploading GL insurance, background check, or drug test in order to apply for the job, then it should not be viewable at all for the technician who doesn't qualify. Recently it keeps providing available jobs that are hours away which makes it difficult because when I have to counter, I usually don't get the job because I have to cover the 2-4 hours of driving each way. In short, they need to only list jobs that you are truly qualified to do within the proper distance. Read full review 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.

Read full review Support Rating If I could drag that slider to a negative number it would be more accurate. There are several canned responses that all resources receive when contacting WM support that you are assured will leave you feeling crushed, disheartened and even as if you are dealing with a Bot. The responses to posts in the support forum were so egregious that unrelated parties would read the posts and feel compelled to chide the WM support rep for inhuman indifference that sickened them. The support by management to its users is comical at best and nearly criminal at worst. This is justified by their very upfront belief that WM is only software and nothing more. Its some misguided attempt to take a company to a purely 1 and 0 mentality that is backfiring on a massive scale. This will likely become the story of legend in business schools worldwide as its a thinking I have seen no other corporation embody so single mindedly that they refuse to view its carnage in its wake.

Read full review Return on Investment Positively, we can respond to out of state client emergencies with this service. We actually don't make that much money on a call, it's negligible, so the ability to call them is really the selling point. It can help get contracts and footholds elsewhere, but it won't by itself generate much income if any. Read full review The investment is worth it, taking into account that the program is very fast and allows us to save a lot of time; in a few days, we already have, in our ranks, expert developers working for us, increasing our productivity and our profits.
