ODesk vs Elance vs Freelancer vs Guru
I used both Odesk and Freelancer to hire developers, and I urge everyone to look at my previous submission (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=5177951) about deplorable protections at Freelancer.com.In summary, my $2500 project was closed by the developer at his will, with no money returned and no way to even leave a feedback! Multiple attempts asking the company to allow me to even leave a feedback came to nothing.Freelancer is not to be trusted.
