Description

If you haven’t already, register a username for yourself so you can discuss this topic in our Online Outsourcing Services forum.

Clickworker calls itself an online crowdsourcing resource, but it operates more like a multisourcing resource. With multisourcing, multiple service providers work on individual parts of a large project, which is what you’ll find at Clickworker. In addition, the service doesn’t operate like a traditional outsourcing service, where providers bid on a project. Instead, Clickworker assigns a project to qualified workers for completion.

Buzz Factor
Onsite, Clickworker lacks a ratings/feedback system because it doesn't operate on top of a bidding platform. That criteria has thus been disregarded. Offsite, the service is somewhat-known, with 425 external websites linking back to its own. See the Presence category for more.
Support
Clickworker provides support via phone and email. It also offers an extensive help section.
Presence
As of the date of this review's publication, Clickworker, ranked 40,478 by Alexa, provides access to over 100,000 contractors. It maintains a company presence on Twitter, LinkedIn, and Facebook, but not Wikipedia. It has also released several press releases on its own website.

Additional Comments

There may be some confusion surrounding the Clickworker name, considering “ClickWorkers“ is a NASA experimental project that uses public volunteers for scientific tasks. As far as we could tell, Clickworker is not the same as, nor associated with, Clickworkers. Current events can be found in our Clickworker News section.
