Zillion Design is one of the most reliable crowdsourced logo and branding platforms available today. The contest model is particularly powerful for businesses that want creative variety rather than a single designer's interpretation. Having used them at Manzari.com for over a decade, we can vouch for their consistency, their responsive support, and the quality ceiling that comes with access to such a large global designer community. The 20% fee is worth noting, but factored into your budget, the ROI on a strong brand identity far outweighs it. If you need a logo or brand identity work done right — without the overhead of a traditional agency — Zillion Design is our top recommendation.
