Does Folder back up the whole PC?
No. It focuses on selected folders. Use Backup Image for a system image.
Do I need to purchase other SOFBAC modules?
No. SOFBAC modules are selected individually. Add other services only when your workflows call for them.
Does EU hosting alone guarantee GDPR compliance?
No. Hosting location matters, but contracts, permissions, legal basis and processors must also be evaluated.
How do I get started?
Review the service scope and requirements, then check the current availability and setup in CORE.
A real-world example
After a photo shoot, a photographer puts images into a project folder and prepares a selection for client review. Workspace supports team collaboration and folder access, Drive provides network file storage and Backup Folder protects selected working directories. Only the intended files are shared with the client, rather than exposing the entire archive. Everyday collaboration is deliberately kept separate from disaster recovery copies.
Industry example: Translation and application offices
Translation and administrative jobs involve source documents, drafts, revisions and final deliveries. Mixing these versions can cause unnecessary corrections or late handovers.
An administrator creates a job folder with the source material, keeps working versions separate and identifies the approved file. Workspace supports collaboration, Backup Folder protects selected working directories and Calendar tracks agreed deadlines. These are three distinct jobs; SOFBAC is not presented as a machine translation engine.
Small offices can adopt organised files and scheduling without buying a heavyweight system.
