"Great site to build a portfolio"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Portfolium?

It has a good design.

It resembles LinkedIn, which makes it easier to use.

Initially, it guides you on the information you should be entering about your profile.

You can make connections as it is a social network for professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Portfolium?

If you upload a PDF of your resume, it doesn’t suggest auto-filling your experience from the file.

Although it has a section to search for jobs, the filter options are not that good.

You can only import data from a provider called Badgr, whereas something like LinkedIn or Manfred could be a good option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Portfolio Creation: It allows you to create a neat and attractive portfolio that you can use to display and share your skills, projects, and achievements.

"Impressed by Portfolium"

5/5

What do you like best about Portfolium?

Portfolium supports various multimedia elements, such as images, videos, and animations, enabling users to present their work in a dynamic and engaging way. This feature is particularly appreciated by artists, designers, photographers, and other creative professionals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Portfolium?

While Portfolium offers various templates and design options, some users have mentioned that they would appreciate even more customization options to further personalize their portfolios.

"Springboard for Post-University Success or Just Another Time-Suck?"

4/5

What do you like best about Portfolium?

The site could be a great way to network in the employment arena, post-university. Its academic focus is useful for freshly-minted students -- who may not have a lot of practical experience in the job market -- to toot their own horns, in the lead-up to, and following, graduation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Portfolium?

The site is not particularly intuitive. It does not appear to be integrated with my academic transcripts at my university, as in the course of this review, I noticed that my account only displays my BS and not my MA. Trying to add my MA was clunky and I am unsure what, if any, proof must be submitted to expedite approval of my MA so that it appears publicly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Portfolium solving and how is that benefiting you?

To be honest, as an adult student who returned to university in my 40s, Portfolium is probably not as useful to me as it would be to the many younger graduates toward whom this service is targeted. It is nice to be able to share my academic achievements in a social network that is interested in them, however! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to use platform to upload professional resume"

4/5

What do you like best about Portfolium?

It is very simple to upload projects and other things that you want to showcase on your profile. It is a nice combination of Linkedin and Facebook so it is fairly user friendly for those who are already used to those programs. The customer service and support is phenomenal, they have been very quick answering our questions and concerns as well as speedy with resolving technical errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Portfolium?

From the reviewer side, it takes a lot of practice to get used to the pathway. There have been tech issues here and there but it is also a brand new platform to us on the administrative side and over 550 new users trying out this platform. There are some nitpicky things that we think could be improved, but they are things that we are getting used to. We have not come across any major program issues yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Portfolium:

Again, a great way for users to showcase as well as submit things for review Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Portfolium solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using this as a way for students to showcase their work and ultimately prepare a file of all their work so far to show potential employers after they graduate. It is also an easy to use system for each student or user to have their own profile and it is easy to go back into their history to review previously uploaded things.

"Great addition to professional online identity"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Portfolium?

I love that I’m able to add files showing completed work, rather than just describing it. Also, being able to add newspaper clippings creates a sort of historical record of your life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Portfolium?

I believe that here should be more categories for interests. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
