What do you like best about YellowFolder?

I love the team at Yellow Folder. The are VERY responsive and on top of things. If I need anything I message an have a reply back within minutes They monitor the system closely and if they see a problem or question they will contact me right away. They listen to us the, consumer, and want to make their product the best fit for us and are making strides daily in doing so The system itself is user friendly and I don't feel I need a ,"For Dummies" manual sitting beside me to operate the system. Also the system can be set up to personalize your company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's hard to narrow it down one best thing. Customer service is top notch! The staff at Yellowfolder are so nice, super helpful and really strive to make their costumers happy. The site is very user friendly and Yellowfolder offers many options to meet a variety of paperless needs. Weekly webinars are available to provide constant training.

What do you dislike about YellowFolder?

What do you like best about YellowFolder?

How easy it is to send records to other schools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about YellowFolder?

The YF logo...it’s cute with the actual yellow folder Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Trying but frustrated"
2/5
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Not cutting edge"
3/5
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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Monthly Data Conference meetings. It is nice to catch up and chat about new features and see how we are doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
