How does BlueFolder handle access when I am on the road?
BlueFolder can notify you and your team via email or text-message when certain events happen in your account. And because BlueFolder is a web application, you can log in from any device with web access.
What if I need special assistance converting important data?
While our import tools allow you to load the most common types of data into BlueFolder yourself, we offer services to assist in special conversions of data if needed. Please contact sales at sales@bluefolder.com to get a quote for a special conversion if that is required. Most conversion projects are quick and inexpensive.
