- **Resume translation:** Translates a resume into languages including French, German, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Japanese and Hindi while keeping the layout.

- Resumes download as PDF only; the FAQ says there is no Word download.
- Monthly fees are not refundable; only Quarterly and Semiannual plans can get a partial, pro-rated refund.
- The job tracker extension works in desktop Chrome only, according to its own FAQ.

## ToolGPA grades

**GPA: 2.0 out of 4**, graded Oct 24, 2026. Enhancv builds resumes with unusual sections, checks the wording, tailors a resume to a pasted job ad with a match score, and tracks applications from a Chrome extension. There's no lasting free plan, only 7 days with branding, downloads are PDF only, and the $16.50 rate means paying $99 for six months.

- **Value for money: C.** Pro works out at $16.50 a month only as $99 every six months, right at this category's middle ($16.50). Quarterly is $69, and month to month is $39, which is in the dearest tenth here.
- **Free plan and trial: C.** A 7-day Free Plan with no card: every template, but basic sections, up to 12 items on a resume and Enhancv branding. After the week, you pay. A trial that needs no card is a C on our ladder.
- **Features: C.** Templates with extra sections, a content analyzer and ATS check, job tailoring with a match score, translation into languages such as French, Arabic and Hindi, interview prep and a job tracker. The listing's gap: downloads are PDF only, with no Word file.
- **Ease of use: C.** No App Store rating on record. You build in a web editor with extra sections to fill, and the tracker needs its Chrome extension.
- **Platforms and integrations: C.** Web, plus an extension that saves jobs from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, Greenhouse and Workday. The extension runs in desktop Chrome only, and there's no phone or desktop app.
