It depends on the service involved Apr 29, 2018

In general being a freelancer or a company is not my first criteria of choice (quality, price, proximity, convenience might be…).

It definitely depends on the type of service ... Apr 29, 2018

I'd rather not have my electricity delivered by a freelancer (what if the next storm would blow their solar panels away or they are too tired to ride their stationary bike), but I always use translation/proofreading services of my fellow freelancers)

In my country, you always look for a company, pay a bit more, and you're still not 100% sure you'll get what you paid for.

I would definitely opt for a freelancer. I believe, a freelancer can mold work as per your ideas if required & quality work can be done in lesser amount.
