Because I have never personally tried to create a portfolio (or a website for that matter), I decided to check out what other sites looked like to have some reference when I made my final judgment on Adobe Portfolio. Wix is one of the most heavily advertised products I have ever seen, with an ad running on almost every Youtube video. I decided to quickly make an account and check out a few of the starting features. I will say, Wix is cute, playful and fun. They start off by “asking a few questions” where I fill in the blank what I want from my site (see first picture). They then offer to create a site for you based on your responses, which is pretty advanced and cool. I thought Adobe had a lot of theme options, but Wix blew me away with the library of different themes, and all for different kinds of sites. I will say the biggest downfall of Wix is most of the features aren’t free, which is a big con. While it seemed easy to use, the features and customization was not as intuitive as Adobe Pf in my humble opinion.
What really is the biggest draw to Adobe Portfolio is that its a free-to-use portfolio building site, where you’ll only pay if you want to customize your domain name. Wix fails in that aspect so I would definitely rank it lower that Adobe Pf.
