### "Ease of use to share files"

January 4, 2023

5.0

Pros

Box allows me to access and share files between my colleagues.

Cons

### "Graphics card bought "

February 13, 2023

5.0

I like how easy it is to move files from any device to the Box platform's cloud storage space, as well as how well it has to offer in terms of features and speed.

Pros

It is an excellent product, and its security features give our company the assurance that we will adhere to all requirements.

Cons

Sad to say, I have to fragment my files a lot because of the file size limit, not to mention the restriction on file versions.

### "Box helps share documents with your team"

February 22, 2019

4.0

Pros

Box is helpful is providing a shared drive that is easily accessible on or off campus and also allows you to share files, especially large ones, with people outside of your company. The editing features are nice, letting you make edits and save to update the document for everyone to view. You can also lock the document so others cannot make edits. The folder system makes it easy to organize.

Cons

You cannot see the edits in real time (like you can with Google Docs) and sometimes you can overwrite someones changes by saving your new version immediately after they did.

### "An innovative approach for cloud content and file sharing management."

September 21, 2018

4.0

Pros

It provides the innovative forum of cloud content management, where all the data and files can be managed in a single platform. The data is kept secure and all the team members for particular projects are kept updated with the progress. This is great for a modern day, a virtual work environment where the planning management is something we no longer have to bother about.

Cons

Even though it provides a prompt customer care service, it is difficult to avail some features as they have higher pricing for the storage of data crossing a particular limit. These higher versions can be uneconomical for some small business groups and teams that might not be able to invest despite the large numbers. A large number of team members will therefore not benefit much here.

### "FOTO VIDEO E FILE AL SICURO"

March 3, 2024

4.0

Uso Box per conservare file di dimensioni importanti come video in 4k e foto dei viaggi. Trovo davvero utile poter accedere ai contenuti caricati in mobilità da qualunque dispositivo.

Pros

Uno dei principali vantaggi è la facilità d'uso sia da pc che da smartphone. Un altro aspetto fondamentale, al giorno d'oggi, è la sicurezza. L'archiviazione è sicura e ben protetta.

Cons

Velocità di Upload un pò lenta a volte. Probabilmente, per la versione gratuita, conviene aumentare lo spazio a disposizione.

### "Box is a fantastic way to collaborate"

November 26, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like it's ease of use. It's data compliant and safe in so many ways you can really flex it's collaboration muscles without being worried about IRM issues.

Cons

The cost per user can be an issue for smaller companies, but for smaller companies you can just use the free version standing normally. Once you get to an organization the size I'm in. It's a no-brainer for the cost.

### "Effective collaboration and storage platform."

May 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like the Microsoft online integration,which enable multiple users to simultaneously edit documents. Box has eliminated the need for back and forth exchange of emails at my workplace,as specific project files are kept in a folder in our box,making it easy for any project member to find information or relevant documents about such projects ,without the need to email a team member.

Cons

The Microsoft online for box feature is limited feature wise.For instance,I am unable to filter my excel columns or zoom into my spreadsheets.

### "Good storage option "

September 18, 2019

4.0

Overall, I think Box is a great storage option, but it does lack the benefit of being directly supported through the Apple or Google interfaces.

Pros

I like that Box can sync right with your own software making uploading and record-keeping, all but automatic. You can back up your important documents and files with ease, and know that they will be safely stored in an easy to access site, that can be organized according to your personal needs.

Cons

Unlike Google Drive, I do wish there were more direct ways of uploading attachments in my email with more compatibility.

### "Can't fit this all in a box"

December 8, 2021

5.0

Pros

Secure file sharing and collaboration with fellow colleagues around the nation, makes for quick communication and file transfer.

Cons

There are so many file sharing programs and sites out there, and we've gone back and forth between various ones, but lately as a corporation have seemed to use Box more for secure bigger files. Haven't really found anything too negative, yet.

### "File transfer for construction projects"

June 19, 2018

4.0

Pros

+Box offers significant amount of storage capacity. For a construction project that lasts 12, 18, 24 months this is a huge benefit. The ability to store construction drawings, submittals, RFI responses, field reports, etc throughout the project comes in handy - when at the end of the project an issue arises. With Box.com storing all your files, it's easy to find supporting documentation to resolve the issue. +Box.com allows you to see all collaborators using the software on a project. This is helpful when construction teams get large and are across multiple firms.

Cons

\-Box.com allows for you to download the app "Box Sync", which is linked to the PC web-based software. You can then drag files from a Windows explorer folder and drop them into the Box.com explorer folder. The sync between Box.com website and the explorer folder is often misaligned, which can be frustrating to not see all of your files.

### "Box - EFSS, ESM and Platform... All in one!"

June 27, 2016

5.0

I get asked all the time what is Box... Why do i need Box if I have other tools... My elevator reply is... Box is so much more than just an Enterprise File Sync and Share tool... EFSS while so valuable is table stakes and many tools provide these features... Box just does them better. What you really need to look at is Enterprise Content Management... Box is a very strong player in Enterprise Content Management and that means so much more to organizations than EFSS and SharePoint and Filenet, while they are Enterprise Content Management tools they do not have the integrations, user experience, management and controls that Box has. The most important part of Box is Box as a platform... Box has APIs and Mobile SKDs that allow you to build custom apps and websites as well as use 3rd party applications. When you combine all of this together that is what makes it so powerful.

Pros

Ease of use and integrations with other tools.

Cons

The granularity of controls for some features and functions.

Great. I house all of our 10TB of creative assets on Box, and can even share with our Chinese business.

Seat charges can creep up when sharing within a large organization.

Inflexible plans, no multiple upload option

### "I use Box at work daily"

September 12, 2019

5.0

I use Box daily for note taking and sharing documents with my teammates.

Pros

I think for file storage and note-taking purposes, Box does the job and it is nice to have access to all my notes and complimentary files in one place.

Cons

Nothing special about it. I have to use Box for work, I wouldn't replace Google Drive with Box for personal use though. It's not my preferred cloud storage tool.

### "Box - Overall a great file and version control system!"

June 7, 2017

4.0

I would recommend using this product. I don't have insight into the cost in order to comment on the value but it is a super easy-to-use tool in an industry where we have a LOT of tools. No extensive training is required for new teammembers to understand how to use it. The version we have is cloud based and there is no storage limit so we do not get error messages for exceeding our storage quota like we always used to on our old platform. Very reliable!

Pros

It's super easy to use, it's quick, there's a decent sized MB limit for files when you upload. Items upload really quickly too! The version history that is automatically created when new versions of documents get uploaded is seamless and the user doesn't need to do anything except ensure that the file name is matches.

Cons

Once you have been granted access to a lot of folders, the list of folders you see when you first log-in can be very long and overwhelming when trying to quickly find a folder. The system dates every file that is uploaded and says which user uploaded it but doesn't readily display the upload time. Sometimes we have multiple files uploaded in a day so saying last modified "today" isn't as helpful as a timestamp would be.

### "Useful and does the job, but nothing outside the box"

November 28, 2022

Box gets the job done, but I prefer alternatives to this software if available.

Pros

It's easy to view, edit, and share assets with my team and review in real-time

Cons

The commenting can feel clunky and the software bugs out from time to time. Not the most reliable option

Box allows us to keep our data safe and send large files without jamming our email memory

Pros

Box allows me to securely send documents inside and outside my company and allow them to view, edit and/or download. It's easy to keep everything organized and allow each project's team to access what they need

Cons

There hasn't been anything with this software that has given us issues we cannot resolve

### "Functionality improving regularly and easy to use"

June 8, 2018

5.0

Pros

Ease of use is definitely the most attractive feature of Box. It's easy to "drop" files from your computer in the system and access them easily. I like the new commenting features and "group notes" type features that you can use when you share your Box files with another user. For example, I can post a comment to the group for which draft of a proposal to use, so everything is clearly laid out when you have more than one version of the same document. The icons are pretty intuitive so you don't have to hunt around for what you're looking for. The developers are regularly adding new features (like the group notes, for example), which help make it more convenient and useful.

Cons

No significant negatives come to mind with Box. As with any free program, there's going to be limited functionality when compared to paid subscriptions to similar services, but the features on Box do well to cover the bases of what the average user needs.

### "The greatest security for documents in the cloud"

May 11, 2018

4.0

For us entrepreneurs is very important to have a space for storage in the cloud of all my files and important documents is, I can also access them from any device, the other key element is the option to edit collaboratively that generates higher productivity

Pros

It is the one that has more space from the free plan to store all my files, this gives a good signal to move to premium plans. One of the key elements is the security provided by the server, to be able to trust and always have access to our files and be able to edit them directly.

Cons

One of the features that I miss in free plans is that I could see access statistics and download files that had public access. After the last update you can not see (just premiun), I hope you can consider reactivating this function
