I hired Superside a few months ago and was really excited to work with them. I was impressed with their other work and our business. Sadly, I regret ever stumbling across them.
I requested a very simple project (make ~20 SVG icons, most of which already existed and needed a few small tweaks) and they quoted me 100 hours, which was my entire month's budget of work. I brought this up to the account admin team, who were nice and professional, and they did a second attempt, which wasn't much different.
Frustrated, I was able to complete the task myself in about two hours. I decided to cancel my agreement and, since this was the first project they'd ever worked on for me, asked for my money back. They'd delivered no work as of yet so it seemed reasonable.
It's taken more than three months to work through this and, to top it all off, when I said I'd be posting honest reviews of what happened, they said:
"We refer to your email dated May 30, 2024, regarding your threat to publish negative reviews about Superside.
While we are always open to constructive feedback and are committed to resolving any legitimate concerns our customers may have, it is against the law to use threats of defamation as a means to an end. We take these matters very seriously and must remind you that defamation, including libel if written, is a serious offense and Superside will not hesitate to take the appropriate legal action.”
I've never been so surprised to see a company's legal team say they would pursue legal action if I published a negative review.
Well, here I am publishing it anyway. You deserve to know what kind of company Superside is, and now you do.

Review of Superside
Very unprofessional. Tend to be deceptive about the effort estimates until you sign the contract and got locked in. Nothing significant gets done in the amount you paid for unless you buy extra hours. Feel like scammed!

Review of Superside
Needs a more expensive pricing model that supports fair wages. Another voodoo company devaluing design.
False promise in this business model in the wording of "dedicated" staff. It's just not possible at this cost to truly have people dedicated to your business. In FAQ when asked if clients will have access to those dedicated staff, the answer is that the point of Superside is not to worry about your work, it's just magic.
The math doesn't add up and this sounds sketchy. $3K/month for 7 "dedicated" employees means that if those folks worked a very lax 20 hour work week (just in case you want to lie and have them work for two clients and not be "dedicated") for the whole month, they'd make a whopping $5.36/hour. And that's if Superside takes no cut. Very skeptical of how this all works and if they are supporting US designers while paying them industry standard wages.
