Answers to common questions regarding data, security, privacy, features, and support.

Written by Jeremiah Hendrickson

Migration & Getting Started

How long does IT Glue migration take?

This depends on the size of your IT Glue full export. It could be minutes, or hours. Upload your export file and we handle the rest, preserving structure, relationships, and metadata.

What data migrates from IT Glue?

Data migrated from IT Glue include:

  • Organizations

  • Locations

  • Contacts

  • Domains

  • Configurations and interfaces

  • Passwords (if present in the ITG export archive)

  • Time-based One-Time Password (TOTP) (if present in the ITG export archive)

  • Documents (if present in the ITG export archive. The following content blocks do not migrate: Heading, Step, and Gallery. IT Glue help page on this.)

  • Flexible assets (see below)

  • Applications

  • Attachments

The script does not migrate:

  • Users

  • Groups

  • Asset permissions

  • Asset relationships or embedded passwords

  • Checklists

  • Logs and recent versions

  • Password categories

  • Password folders

  • Document folders

  • Regions

  • User metrics

  • Tickets

Do I need to re-train my team?

No. The interface is intuitive, and Lex answers search queries naturally. Most teams are productive within hours.

Can I try Lexful before migrating all of my IT Glue data?

No, you must do a full migration to start using Lexful.

How about other documentation tools?

In early access, we currently only support IT Glue exports. Our team is working on support for Hudu next. Other tools like Sharepoint will follow as part of roadmap prioritization.


AI & Privacy

Is my information private?

Absolutely. We only use your data to serve and improve Lexful for you. We will never sell, distribute, or share your data with anyone. Your documentation stays yours. For more detail please review our privacy policy.

Do you train AI models on my data?

Never. We use Amazon Bedrock with enterprise privacy guarantees that your data is never used to train public models.

What AI model powers Lex?

AWS Bedrock supports all major LLM models and is a capable enterprise AI for reasoning, analysis, and content generation. We select specific models based on the best suited for different use cases; and we upgrade to newer models as they become available.

Can Lex access the internet or public data?

No. Lex only answers from your documentation. It has no internet access and cannot pull information from external sources.

How does Lex handle permissions?

Every answer respects your role-based access controls. You only see what you're authorized to access.

Can I use my own AI (Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc)?

Yes, Lexful MCP server enables this now: https://developer.lexful.ai/mcp/overview


Security & Compliance

What security certifications does Lexful have?

Lexful is built on zero trust security principles from day 1, and is currently working on getting SOC 2 Type II and ISO 27001 compliances in place. We undergo independent third-party audits to ensure rigorous security, availability, and confidentiality controls.

Where is my data stored?

Your data is encrypted and stored in secure AWS data centers. Data never leaves our controlled infrastructure.

Do you offer SSO?

Yes. We support Google and Microsoft.

What's your privacy policy?

Our complete privacy policy and terms of service are available at: lexful.ai/privacy

How do you handle password data from IT Glue?

Passwords are encrypted end-to-end and respect your existing permission structures. Only authorized users can view passwords, and all access is logged.

Product & Features

Do you offer Lex prompts as examples?

Yes. Lexful comes pre-built with optimized prompts for a breadth of MSP operational workflows and tasks.

Can I export my data?

Absolutely. Full data and partial data exports are available anytime - you own your data and can leave whenever you request it.

How do I see previous Lex chat history?

Click the chat history pop-out button on the "Ask Lex" page of the UI.

How do I show archived items in lists?
Click the radio button for "Show archived"


Comparison & Differentiation

Why use Lexful instead of staying with legacy documentation systems?

Legacy systems are static storage with keyword search. Lexful adds AI intelligence, instant answers to natural language questions and semantic search that understands intent.

Why use Lexful instead of ChatGPT for documentation?

ChatGPT doesn't know your clients, configurations, or procedures. It can hallucinate incorrect information. Lexful's Lex is enriched exclusively with your data, respects permissions, and always cites sources.

Why use Lexful instead of Notion or other generic tools?

Lexful is purpose-built for MSPs. We understand multi-tenant architecture, client organizations, asset management, and password vaults. Generic tools require extensive customization and don't include MSP-specific AI capabilities.


Support & Team

What support do you offer?

24/7 chat messenger in-app Support link, escalation to support team via Chat or Email channel during business hours: 9am-5pm Pacific, 24-hour response SLO

Do you offer implementation assistance?

Yes. Migration assistance included by request.

Can you tell me more about the team that created Lexful?

Lexful was created by a team of industry veterans, including founders with deep experience building products for MSPs. We understand MSPs because we've lived it.

How can I request features or provide feedback?

We love feedback! Use the in-app feedback button, or join our community forum. We actively co-create with customers.
