Artists Soar

Horrible Customer Service Experience and Lessons Learned for Artists to Protect Their Files.


Listen Later

Jules, Rachel, and Stephanie discuss a terrible experience where Julie was locked out of her Adobe Profile because a hacker got into her account and changed her password.  The lack of customer support from Adobe led to a number of discoveries we discuss. 

If you have a question you'd like us to discuss feel free to  email us at [email protected]

Key talking points: 
  • DO NOT KEEP YOUR FILES ONLY ON THE CLOUD.
  • Save your images in 3 different places: 
    • Backup to hard drive (like an SSD Portable)
  • Another hard drive in a separate location
  • And a cloud-based backup service.
  • Save PSD files as TIFs.
  • Save Illustrator files as EPS files.
  • Enable 2 Factor Authentication for all of your cloud-based systems.
  • We'd love to hear about your experiences with terrible customer service and what you learned from the situation, email us at [email protected]
