Enhancv makes it look sharp.
Portfolio makes it a website.
Enhancv is a design-led resume builder with striking layouts and a content analyzer that scores your wording. If a standout resume document is the goal, it is genuinely good at it. Portfolio starts from the same resume and builds more: a website you own, a matched designer resume, a live ATS score, and a cover letter. You come away with a resume and a real site to share. The rows below say plainly where Enhancv is the stronger pick.
What Enhancv is strong at.
Honest first. Enhancv puts real care into how a resume looks and reads, and it shows. Here is what you get.
Bold, well-composed resume layouts that stand out from plain templates.
A checker that rates your wording and flags weak or vague phrasing.
Extra blocks for strengths and interests let you shape the story.
The deliverable is a polished resume document, and that focus pays off.

Enhancv questions, answered.
Straight answers about design, scope, and ATS.
Are Portfolio's resume designs as bold as Enhancv's?
Enhancv leans harder into standout resume design and has a content analyzer built for that document. Portfolio offers 48 resume layouts tuned to match your website. If a striking document is your first priority, Enhancv is the more focused tool.
Can Enhancv build a personal website?
No. Enhancv is a resume builder that outputs documents. Building a multi-page website from your resume is what Portfolio does. See resume to portfolio for the path.
Does Portfolio score my resume for an ATS?
Yes. Portfolio shows a live ATS score while you edit so you can see what an applicant tracking system reads. Enhancv also runs content checks, so on feedback they overlap. Try the free ATS score checker to preview Portfolio's score.
Do both include a cover letter?
Yes. Enhancv includes cover letter support, and Portfolio drafts one matched to your resume. On that point they are close, so decide on whether you want a website too.
Will Portfolio give me a resume I can download?
Yes. You get a designer resume you can export, plus the website. The difference from Enhancv is that the resume is part of a full site, not the only output.
Should I leave Enhancv?
Only if a document is no longer enough. Enhancv stays a strong choice for a design-led resume. Choose Portfolio when you want a website and a scored resume from the same text.
