Resolving my problem quickly
It feels good to be taken care of real pros. It was fixed fast and to the point

No saben o no quieren hablar en Español, con lo cual no se puede hablar por teléfono con ellos, y en escribir un correo y que contesten, tardan más de 15 días, con lo cual pierdes las misiones. No funciona la plataforma y al entrar para poder confirmar una misión no sale la opción para poder hacerlo, lo he denunciado mas de 10 veces pero o no lo comprenden o son incapaces de solucionarlo, todo sigue igual. Cuando surge algún problema en edl display de las opciones que salen, no sale nunca la opción adecuada al problema surgido, y no hay forma de poder explicarlo,

Réactivité de la réponse , très bien

In the new update, if we want to Drop a Project because the Client cancelled at the last minute, there is no option to do that. All the options suggest that the fault is from our side and that’s why we are cancelling it and that may affect our future projects, whereas mostly the reason of cancellation is from Clients side. Everything else is good and fine, but I think this feature should be looked into as well.

Incredible IMPROVEMENT! Ive never seen a company improve so much so fast! Keep up the great work OCUS!

In late 2025, this was literally one of the worst companies I had ever worked with! Seriously, it was SO BAD! My first support request took them TWO MONTHS to respond to, and my second check was paid a MONTH LATE.

At the beginning of 2026 they implemented a new platform, and it’s literally like a completely different company! I get responses from actual humans within hours! I am so impressed!

Amigos/as de Ocus, contraten nuevos informaticos. A ser posible con titulo y experiencia demostrada o pagen a los sufridos fotografos (entre los que me incluyo) con los que "colaboran" una indemnizacion por todo el tiempo que nos hacen perder.
Tres meses con la nueva version de la web y estamos practicamente como al principio. Los nuevos parches no funcionan!
Por cierto, ustedes prometieron una prima a los asistentes a un webinar de formacion. Dónde está la susodicha prima?
Tomen medidas que funcionen, por favor.

Seems legit, does pay as promised, and has it perks, but I can't take this business seriously when they don't take mine seriously.

No tax documents after the year is over? Don't buy the "We are based in Paris" BS. When you do business in the United States, which Ocus does, you are required BY LAW to pay taxes, and supply 1099 employees documentation of their earnings for the year when it exceeds $600.

Ocus doesn't agree. I have struggled with their system, their run-around under the radar illegal business tactics, and won't be leaning on them for income moving forward.

Quand on arrive à communiquer avec un être humain le niveau de gentillesse et disponibilité est très élevé... toute l'équipe s'engage pour régler toute situation d'une façon impeccable

Dear Team at Ocus,

Thank you for the opportunity to share my personal feedback. I truly appreciate the brand, its reputation, and the standards it represents, especially within the Nigerian market.

At the beginning of the year, I structured part of my professional plans around the expectation of continued collaboration and job opportunities through your platform. Receiving information that there are currently no available jobs has been quite discouraging, as it affects planning, workflow, and priority setting for creatives who rely on predictable engagement pipelines.

In the past, the booking call system and the possibility of getting immediate responses created a strong sense of accessibility and operational confidence. The reduced availability of that direct and timely response channel has been noticeably felt. Faster communication and clearer availability signals would greatly help professionals better manage expectations and scheduling.

That said, the brand remains highly respected, and I believe strongly in its long-term potential and influence. With consistent engagement, transparent communication, and dependable opportunity flow, the brand can continue to grow and become even more widely recognized at the household level.

Thank you again for inviting honest feedback. I value the relationship and hope to see continued improvements that benefit both the company and its creative partners.

The reply gave me all the information I needed

First year when I joined, 2025. it was good, they had customer support that you could easily get in touch and solve any issue. Now, they've decided to automate everything, it's like there is no one single live human on the platform that you can talk to and resolve the problem.
I got rejected to shoot when I got to the restaurant, because nothing was prepared and they decided that they don't want to prepare the meals, despite we agreed before about everything and the owner confirmed everything again on the same date, just to change his mind when I got there, after spending 30€ on gas and 3 hours drive.
I remember last year, similar situation, but I didn't have any expanses, they offered to pay the full amount.
Now, the situation completely obvious, that I've done everything as agreed, but the owner rejected at the last second - they said there will be no refund.
Also, they said they have someone who is making deals with the owners, agreeing about everything and your job as a photographer is just to come and shoot - that's a rubbish. I need to call the owners on my own and try every tactic to make them agree to have a photoshoot, free of charge for them.
So after this incident, I've deleted my profile, and I would not recommend to anyone.
I'm really sad for this, I never left negative feedback, but it's really huge disappointment, especially after great support team from the previous year.

Plateforme pour photographe assez complète en terme de missions
Des progrès sont encore à faire pour le nouveau site internet
Rémunération par mission pas toujours attractives

Pagos atrasados, factura no generada tras actualización

I worked with them for over four years in The UK. In the early days, everything was much easier, but at some point they started constantly changing the rules. First they changed the way assignments were picked from the map, then they couldn’t make it work and brought it back. New rules kept coming all the time. However, over the last 4–5 months, it has honestly become unbearable.

The new website is a complete disaster, totally unusable. There is no help or support option on the new website, which is unbelievable. I can no longer reach live chat either. This has to be one of the worst website designs I’ve ever seen; it genuinely feels like they are making things deliberately difficult for photographers.

They used to pay a travel fee, but now they try every possible way to avoid paying it. Even when I receive confirmation from the restaurant, the shoot gets cancelled once I arrive. I spend 3–4 hours travelling to a distant location, and they only compensate 30%, despite the fact that none of this is my fault.

On my most recent job, I can see the earnings under the invoice section, but I’m unable to approve the invoice. I tried contacted them via live chat, but there was no chat or help section on new website. I don't know how to ask them about my last invoice. The lack of basic functionality and support is unacceptable.

It feels like they are constantly looking for new ways to cut costs. Many very good photographers around me have already stopped working with them. If this continues, they will be left with amateurs only, and they will eventually lose their contracts with major companies as well. I genuinely don’t think they have ever listened to photographers over the years, they only think about themselves.

Since September, this was the first time I decided to accept a job again, and it turned out to be a complete waste of time. I’ve completed around 1,000 assignments for Ocus so far. The company is extremely poorly managed and has now become a total waste of time. It’s a real shame. I hope the delivery platforms they work with choose to partner with other companies instead

worst platform ever, just signed as a photographer and it is so badly well informed as a wast of time

I've been shooting food photography for an OCUS client for a couple of years now. Although the OCUS team tends to provide a fair number of assignment opportunities per month, my wish is that the restaurants were better informed on what's expected of them and what my role is as their photographer BEFORE I contact them. I wish that every restaurant was at least already aware of the service and WANTS the service BEFORE I'm assigned. Too many assignments just feel like cold calling which makes budgeting frustrating. The company does have an array of helpful hints on their web interface for creatives to browse should they run into issues. Direct communication on some issues, however, can take days.
