CloudTask compared with an open freelance platform
An open freelance platform lets anyone create a profile and lets you post a job and collect proposals. The reach is enormous and the screening is yours to do. CloudTask does the screening first and sends you a shortlist instead of a pile of applications. This page compares the two models, not two companies.

Where CloudTask is different
You get a shortlist, not a directory.
Our team runs the search and sends 3 to 5 matched, verified profiles within 48 hours. You do not browse, filter or sift. The screening happens before you see anyone.
One all in monthly rate on Managed Staffing.
Salary, compliance, payroll and support sit inside a single rate per person. No recruiter fees on Managed Staffing, no placement commissions, no markup layers to reconcile.
The relationship does not end at day one.
Managed Staffing carries a 6 month replacement guarantee, and so does Direct Hire. Retention is our problem, not your risk.
Latin America and the Caribbean, in your working hours.
Every professional we place works US business hours from the region. Overlap is the default, not something you negotiate.
