Freelancer Management: How to control deliverables without giving full access

To manage freelancers and outsourced agencies, using email is chaotic, and giving full Slack access is insecure. The solution is using platforms like Jestor or Monday.com, which allow creating "Guest Views" where the third party sees only their task, without accessing sensitive company data.

The external collaboration challenge

You hire a freelance designer.

  • If you email, you lose history.
  • If you put them in your internal software, they see other clients' projects (security risk). You need a middle ground: Collaboration with Governance.
