Uploading Word/Excel Files

[VanessaL]

Is there a chance the option to upload a word doc or excel spreadsheet will become available?  It would be so helpfu in our line work, so we can share word documents with our members - so they can view the document, red line and return to us.  As it stands now, we have to find another way to upload the document and then provide a separate link.  It would just take that one extra step out of the process.

Hi Vanessa,

At the current time we do not have a way to upload word or excel files.  I believe we are looking into that for the future, but no ETA as of now.  I would be happy to pass your information on.  Many of our customers will use a third-party free site to upload their files that we currently do not support.  Some use MediaFire or GoogleDocs.  Both are free and are easily shared. 

Thanks for your feedback! We love hearing from our customers and that is how we find new features for our products!

Is the excel feature available yet?

Hello Kevin,

Unfortunately Constant Contact still does not allow word/excel files to be uploaded to the system. I will add your vote to user feedback for this topic.

However as a work around there is a program in our market place called Digioh,  which offers free file storage. Their program allows for any type of file to be uploaded and shared through a link, which you could insert in your newsletter.

Here is the link to Digioh
