It also makes it easier to send records to other districts. The support team is amazing. The data clerks can reach out with a problem and it always fixed **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** The original set up of the folder structure. There was some confusion, but it was worked through. I don't even like to say I disliked it, it was just getting the understanding which takes time and usage. **Recommendations to others considering YellowFolder:** You will need to change the mindset of the data clerks. Make sure they are involved in the beginning. This will make folder setup easier and have them scanning sooner. It was hard for some to give up the paper copies, but once they started scanning and seeing the benefits, they prefered the digital records. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** Space and compliance issues. Digitizing student records has helped with the not having to house the records and each campus. Compliance in record maintenance and the file cabinets themselves. ### 7.

YF review **Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** Yellow Folder holds a lot of information and can be accessed with advanced searches. It has saved space in our offices by eliminating all the space that file cabinets takes. It also eliminates excessive paper and is available to all the staff to view. **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** So much information was taken to scan into Yellow Folder from our district that it takes awhile to scan through all the data to locate the pages needed. Also the time involved with logging in and logging out like many of electronic systems. Of course when the system has to be re-booted or has shut down takes away time. **Recommendations to others considering YellowFolder:** Yes, it simplifies mass folders and files and makes them accessible to multiple people **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** Elimination of so many paper copies and files in the office.

One major issue we are solving is all information in one located area by using this system.

It was very frustrating to not have records available when we needed them because someone else was using the file. With Yellowfolder, everything is online and available to everyone who needs them. That's been a real time saver for us. The savings we have on paper, ink & copier usage is also a great benefit. ### 13.

Yellow folder **Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Michelle R. | Business Mager, Hospitality, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** Easy access for all users. Our admin team has access to every thing they need at any time **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** I haven't run into any problems so far, it is very user friendly **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** All administrators have access which eliminates me of doing most research ### 16. Good experience **Rating:** 3.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jenifer M. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** October 18, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** How easy it is to send records to other schools. **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** Not scanned in correctly. Records are not all where they should be. Or when I scanned the documents in, it was portrait, but it shows on YellowFolder as landscape and data is missing. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** NA ### 17. Slow, Often errors uploading, not intuitive/user-friendly **Rating:** 0.5/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jennifer A. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 27, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** The YF logo...it’s cute with the actual yellow folder **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** Product could be more intuitive in its usage, many features are quite cryptic. When uploading information to YF, surprised at the volume of files that do not end up uploading, because of errors. Would be super-helpful if file names were descriptive, rather than just a series of letters & digits. Uploading can take not just hours, but an entire business day. Really dislike that there is currently no way to delete files once we have uploaded them to an employee’s file. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** Trying to solve digital storage of HR files ### 18. Trying but frustrated **Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Jennifer H. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 26, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** In theory, the idea is a good one. It should be good to access records remotely and access such records even when off campus. **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** In execution, it is frustrating at best. Whereas previously teachers and support staff would have free or access to student records, now, only committed individuals are able to access records. This place is unnecessary burden on a select few individuals. Furthermore, the burden of scanning, faulty or missing records, improper scanning, mis-categorized records, etc makes the system laborious. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** Remote access is a solution. **Official Response from Lance Rinker:** > Hello, Jennifer. Thank you so much for taking the time to review YellowFolder and provide honest feedback. We will have your dedicated PNE reach out to you and work with you on a resolution to your concerns and ensure things are working for you the way you need and expect. ### 19. Not cutting edge **Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** It is a cloud storage option, so I am able to store documents on the web that are then made accessible to the rest of my team. **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** It lacks many of the features that one could expect from a software like this in 2018. You can't tag files, you can't sort by employment type, it is just raw, unfiltered storage. The "automated" filing they advertise hardly works, so the system requires a lot of babysitting and handholding. It is frustrating to use. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** The main problem that YellowFolder addresses for us is that we were in need of an electronic storage system for personnel files. They are stored in YellowFolder; however, I find it delivers only the bare minimum in terms of services provided. ### 20. YellowFolder **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Shannon O. | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** The Monthly Data Conference meetings. It is nice to catch up and chat about new features and see how we are doing. **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** Sometimes there are issues with using certain web browsers (as to be expected with tech), I also use a Mac so at one point there were compatibility issues. These were resolved upon contacting customer support. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** We are hoping to resolve the clutter that traditional paper files entail. It streamlines all our personnel files into one location for easy lookup and access. ### 21. Great Customer Service **Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars **Reviewed by:** Ryan T. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.) **Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2018 **What do you like best about YellowFolder?** Our office has recently started using Yellow Folder and I have been very impressed with the friendly and helpful customer service and support that they have provided. **What do you dislike about YellowFolder?** It has been intimidating letting go of our old “paper” processes - but exciting to move in this new “paperless” direction. **What problems is YellowFolder solving and how is that benefiting you?** Our old file room is at its max. Yellow Folder will prevent us from needing an additional file room - and hopefully allow us to slowly become completely electronic over the next few years. ### 22.
