Top Rated DesignCrowd Alternatives
I really like that you have access to such a variety of projects and that you are able to pick and choose the work you do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that if a customer doesn't appreciate the work you did, even if it's an alright design, just not something the client loves, you get a low review/score which impacts the future clients because they see a low score without seeing the context or quality of the design Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I thought it was great at the time until I was alerted that the winning design was stolen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Poor customer service. Never got compensation for time lost or promotional materials ordered that I cannot use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Optionality and inputs from different designers is a valuable idea but you don't get this unless you buy the more expensive packages.
Not worth it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I have used DesignCrowd multiple times for logo designs but will never use them again.
I hate their process. I had only 1 designer working on my logo, who it's important to note I couldn't pick, DesignCrowd automatically picked him.
He was based in Venezuela and worked slowly all the while, DesignCrowd had me on a deadline timer that was running out fast.
I did not like the logos and to spare the designer trouble, I asked DesignCrowd to cancel the project and refund my money as they proudly proclaim to do.
Due to their small print on a separate page, they were only refunding me part of my money and they were keeping 1/3 of it.
What a waste of time, I'll gladly refer and use a competing service instead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
we have used design crowd for many projects with great results. The website offers a large pool of freelancer designers which helped us in getting custom designs in our defined budget. This site is very useful if you are particular in what you want.
would definitely recommend the site to any entrepreneur looking for assistance with their logo designs and other services.

we have had some communication problems with designers but the DC team ensure that this issue is fixed.
Also had to go back and forth since we were new in business but the designer did a good job and explained it well Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to pitch ideas to get multiple designs by simply describing the project and platform for the design needed. It’s step by step and reasonably priced for multiple designs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I wish I could alter the colors, fonts, and have more of direct interactions for the drafts. I felt a little more differentiation between designs would have been nice. However getting 3 designs for under $80 is an unbelievable deal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I really like this software because it provides ideas so you can start making your designs and it helps you to demonstrate all your skills, potentials and creativity to the different companies that look for unique designs. I also like that I can use DesignCrowd as a medium for the realization of my projects and the development of my business so I can find many clients through this software. If you do not have a main idea with which to start a design this software will not hesitate to helps you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Since I am using this software I have not found something that I do not like. But... I must pay more to get more shipments, that's a bit disgusting because what I want is to have more profits for my time invested. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that you can give an initial ideas to the designers so that they have a starting point. Since it is viewed as a competition, it is an opportunity for the designers to show off their skills and give you their best. You get design submissions from all over the world and everyone I've worked with has been more than willing to make changes and tweaks multiple times to ensure that you're happy with the end product. Once you finalize your design, it is sent to you and every format that you request. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I didn't find any dislikes using this process and actually came out with a logo. While you get what you pay for, I did find that you need to pay more to get more submissions. But it makes since, designers want to go for the opportunities that will land them the greatest amount of return on their invested time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
With graphic designers from all over the world, you have the ability to take the start of your idea, share it, and see what comes about!. It truly takes the hard part off of you if you lack in the creativity side and allows you to move forward with multiple designs/logos to choose from. You can't go wrong!

I had plenty of time to complete my projects because I like to get ahead of the game. But I would not suggest using this route if you have a time sensitive project. Plan ahead... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
They answered to our refund email quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
We received terrible designs. We trusted their promise of "full refund", but it turns out they keep 55Eur out of 165Eur payment.
We feel cheated and we do not recommend this dishonest marketplace to anybody. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
