Review:

Behance is a popular portfolio site that gives businesses looking for freelance designers access to portfolios and profiles for free. They also provide the opportunity to post jobs and open projects.

While Behance offers a free job posting service, it is less feature-rich than similar portfolio sites and other U.K. freelance job boards, lacking applicant tracking tools, job ad distribution, and social media promotion.

Pros:

  • Behance offers free job postings.
  • U.K. employers with active job listings can view the profiles and portfolios of local and global freelancers.
  • The platform provides access to around 40 million job seekers.
  • Posting a job gives employers access to an extensive network of freelancer profiles and portfolios.
  • The platform allows users to re-activate listings after their 30-day expiration at no additional cost.
  • The job board features an employers' dashboard to easily manage job postings.
  • Employers can save the information of potential candidates.
  • A free mobile app is available to download.

Cons:

  • The platform is quite basic and does not offer paid plans or any additional visibility options.
  • No applicant tracking system is available.
  • Employers need an Adobe account to post jobs.
  • No U.K.-based phone support is provided.

Reputation:

On Trustpilot, Behance has a 2.9-star rating based on almost two dozen reviews. U.K. reviews range from very positive to those advising changes to make the site more user-friendly.

Behance also enjoys a rating of 4.5/5 rating on Sitejabber based on more than 30 reviews. Many users noted the platform's easy-to-use interface and good customer service.

Pricing:

Behance offers a free job posting service. Any Behance member can post jobs or apply for jobs through the dedicated Jobs portal. Employers can also hire freelancers from the platform's extensive candidate network, or purchase a subscription for access to exclusive content.

For project hires, Behance charges a platform fee of 10% plus a $2.00 flat fee for payments under $500.00. Project payments from $501.00 to $2,500.00 are subject to a 5.5% fee. Project payments above $2500.00 are subject to a 3% fee.

Behance vs. Designhill:

Behance and Designhill both cater to the local and international design markets. While Behance offers a free job posting service, employers using Designhill can post design contests or gigs to hire designers, which starts at US$249.00 per project. Of the two, only Designhill features additional logo and business card marking tools.

Behance vs. Design Jobs Board:

While Design Jobs Board primarily lists local design jobs, Behance has a global reach and attracts more than 12 million job seekers. Compared to Behance's job board, Design Jobs Board is the more feature-rich choice, offering job ad distribution. While Design Jobs Board charges £99.00 +VAT per post, Behance is a free job posting service.

Behance vs. Reed.co.uk:

Behance offers employers a niche portfolio and job posting site for creative design projects, while Reed.co.uk is a top general U.K. job site. Both platforms reach global talent pools, but with a starting price of £89.00 +VAT for a six-week post, Reed.co.uk is the costlier option. By contrast, Behance offers a free job posting service.
