==History==
Upwork was formed 18 months after Elance and oDesk announced their merger on December 18, 2013 to create Elance-oDesk, an online workplace with a combined total 8 million registered users. oDesk was founded in 2003〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=California Secretary of State. Corporate filing date 1/27/2003 )〕 by Odysseas Tsatalos and Stratis Karamanlakis.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=oDesk About Us Page )〕 Elance was founded in 1999 by Beerud Sheth. With the launch of Upwork, the oDesk platform was upgraded and rebranded and the company announced that the Elance platform will be phased out within a couple of years, resulting in a single freelance marketplace.
After the re-branding of Upwork in early 2015, wide-spread criticism surfaced among freelancers because of various bugs and slow loading speed of the Upwork platform, which lead to an apology being issued by CEO Stephane Kasriel.〔https://collegetimes.co/upwork-sucks/〕
