DESIGN CLOUD VS THE REST

How we stack up vs traditional outsourcing

There are many benefits to working with local freelancers or using marketplaces - especially when it comes to one off project work - but when you need day-to-day design work on a consistent schedule, things get a little trickier....and expensive.

Here's how we're different.

Low, fixed monthly pricing

No surprise bills or awkward conversations. Our pricing is fixed on a per designer basis and never changes, regardless of how much you request or how many revisions to you make to your work.

FULLY SCALABLE SOLUTION

Need to increase your output? You can add multiple designers to your team in just a few clicks and scale back when demand drops. Our software platform makes managing design requests across multiple designers easy.

CONSISTENT AVAILABILITY & DESIGNERS

When you sign up. you'll work with the same designer for as long as you decide to stay with us. If your designer is off that day, a member of our team will pick up your work.

UK BASED DESIGN & SUPPORT TEAM

All of our team are based in the UK and are available to work with Mon-Fri 9am-5.30pm (UK time). We're a remote first business with a head office in central Manchester.

We don't use AI for customer service (or design work) you'll always be able to reach out to a real human if you need any help while working with us.

PRICE COMPARISON
