### "Enterprise level cloud storage that offers ton of storage space for free"

August 1, 2018

5.0

Plenty of free storage with affordable pricing for adequate amount of space.

Pros

SIgned up because their base paid plan is cheaper than other competitors. I like the native integrations for signatures and the ability to grant access to specific folders. Was useful for working with clients.

Cons

It's an enterprise focused app so it's not as pretty of an interface as other one. Not as media-file friendly as other cloud storage apps. Wish there were more advanced file encryption.

### "Quick and easy to use cloud storage"

April 13, 2020

5.0

Box is a great platform for storing and sharing files in the cloud - quickly, easily and securely.

Pros

I love how quick and easy it is to upload files to Box and the different ways you can organise and structure folders. Not only this, but so much time is saved through the ability to file share via a URL link, which is extremely helpful - particularly during the times when you have a huge file to upload (of which the size exceeds limits for sending over email). The 'Box Accelerator' feature also allows some very speedy uploading!

Cons

One small feature that could be improved are the alerts whenever a folder or file is shared with you - if you are already in Box, it's easy to miss notifications if you don't actively check the bell icon. Fortunately, thanks to the frequent email updates this is never really an issue overall.

### "I use BOX.com for file storage"

June 5, 2018

4.0

Pros

This software is organized well and really easy to use! The search functionality is great and the permissions levels are a nice feature

Cons

I would like to have a 'expiration date' on shared links so you could set the link to expire after a certain period of time.

### "This Box is full of benefits"

September 16, 2018

5.0

I have used Box for years. In fact, I was tasked with finding a tool for sharing files amongst our team, and the tool had to have versioning. My research led me to suggest Box, and we've been using it for years now -- with not regrets at all.

Pros

I love the ability to maintain prior versions of files in Box. Also, I love how you easily share files with one or more users very quickly. I also love how much space you get to use with a corporate account.

Cons

I haven't found anything that I dislike about Box. Not yet.

### "Best Business Solution"

January 10, 2018

5.0

Over the several years I have used the product I have only had 1 experience with support that was frustrating. However, Box was great to follow up consistently until my issue was resolved. They ensured I was happy with the outcome and listened to my feedback.

Pros

Box is the best solution for business. The product offers easy administration and security. Box also offers Box Drive and Box Sync which make the end user experience simple and easy to use. Managing users activity/access/etc. is extremely easy. Box truly is the cloud service for the business.

### "Box for Docs"

February 13, 2023

5.0

Pros

I like the ease of setup and use in storing company documents online. As a small organization, with limited needs, I have found some online storage to be cost-prohibitive. I also like the integration with both Office 365 and G Suite.

Cons

Our pcs have limited hard drive space, and Box does not allow for off-loading less frequently used files.

### "Easy to use"

June 6, 2022

5.0

Pros

I like how easy it is to share documents - it helps to increase productivity in your daily activities. The "Notes" feature is also very nice as I can quickly find documents just by searching by my keywords. We can also link Box to other apps.

Cons

Sometimes it is a bit difficult to find comments written by collaborators - in my experience, you have to open each file to see them.

### "Box is great for company file sharing "

December 19, 2015

5.0

I started using Box when my company used it. We shared files internally and with external stakeholders it was great to know your files were safe. The editing in app function didn't work so well, due to perhaps my company's hardware or operating system, but regardless, few in our org were able to edit within the app. We got around this by editing in Word and then re uploading. The collaborating was great because we could control who had the file open and who could see it. For individuals, Dropbox is probably fine. For larger orgs, Box is great.

Pros

Intuitive interface for basic functions like uploading Access it anywhere Useful mobile app

Cons

Hard to access and navigate folders Non intuitive search function Hard to get the editing within the app function working

### "I use Box every day to store my documents rather than having to save it to my desktop. "

July 25, 2018

5.0

Pros

It's great knowing I can access my documents from anywhere and it not being determined by the device I'm using.

Cons

I don't really have a con to share about Box. It's a very simple tool and something that anyone who manages sensitive material should consider.

### "Best Cloud Based Storage on the Market"

June 22, 2016

5.0

We were a fast growing company that relied upon file servers to house our data. We experimented with OneDrive, Google Drive, and Dropbox and none of these products met our expectations. Box met all of our expectations for cloud based storage and are adding more useful features all the time.

Pros

\- Easy to administer. Security groups and waterfall permissions makes everything very easy. - Integrated with Microsoft Office and offers co-authoring (multiple folks can be in one file at once). - It just works!

Cons

\- I'm not crazy about the Box Sync application that syncs Box files down to your hard drive. I've had a lot of issues with it taking up bandwidth and filling up hard drives when too much data is synced. Really looking forward to the rollout of Box Desktop that will stream the data and make these issues go away. - Workflows need some work. An integration with DocuSign would be really nice.

### "Fast and simple file sharing"

August 7, 2018

5.0

We were faced with finding a solution to sharing large files. Box presented a very easy solution to this problem. The easy to use interface and problem free roll-out have made this the right choice for our company.

Pros

The ease of use of use has been extremely important for implementing within our company. Users needed to adopt the software quickly and be able to utilize the sharing functionality without much instruction. The intuitive nature of Box made this a very smooth process. Our users are able to share very large documents with ease.

Cons

I've yet to encounter any issues with Box, so far it's been a very good experience without any bumps in the road.

### "Security is the key"

May 26, 2016

5.0

Box has surpassed all competitors with a consistent focus on security. Sure the product is easy to use, provides killer features for content management collaboration but its the security, auditing and compliance that truly make it an enterprise class platform.

Pros

Works on any device, allows you to take your work critical content anywhere. The previewer functionality allows for viewing of 100+ of file types. The integration with Microsoft Office / O365 is flawlessly simple and amazingly productive.

Cons

Would love to see the BoxNotes functionality expanded to include revision tracking, we use it frequently for drafting initial documents. It would be great if the previewer supported Keynote in the webapp.

### "It's Awesome!"

February 17, 2023

5.0

Pros

Box is an exceptional platform that has completely transformed the way I store and share files. I have been using Box for a few years now and have been consistently impressed by its features and functionality.

Cons

One of the biggest issues I have with Box is its storage limitations. Despite paying for a premium subscription, I found that my storage capacity was quickly used up, and I was forced to constantly manage and delete files to free up space.

### "Good for file sharing"

April 12, 2019

4.0

Pros

Box is a pretty good file sharing system. It’s not the best I’ve used, and can tend to bog down and be glitchy from time to time but it’s great for sharing and version controlling docs.

Cons

Coauthoring is lacking. It can be easy to accidentally get locked out

### "a big surprise that I did not expect"

November 29, 2018

4.0

Pros

to start I must say that until a few months ago I did not know box, and the truth I was pleasantly surprised, within their strengths we have to: 1.- You have several types of accounts according to your needs and budget. There are personal and business accounts, and the prices are quite consistent with the market. 2.- the free account gives you a big enough space in the cloud (10gb), so you can store thousands of documents and files without any problem. 3.- the upload and download of files is very fast. 4.- The environment is very friendly, sober and really easy to use. 5.- It has support for the different operating systems. 6.- You can easily share the files.

Cons

Unfortunately it has some small flaws: 1.- The collaborative work system does not work as expected, since as in other platforms, conflicts and errors are created when two or more users use the same file. 2.- the files that you can upload in the free version are a few megabytes. I know that box is oriented to office work, but it is also a great disadvantage that you can only upload 250mb in the free version, while in the payment range varies between 2GB and 5GB.

### "Great for sharing files"

October 24, 2018

4.0

Pros

I prefer this over some of the other file sharing options (their security controls are a little better). One of the advantages is the ability to edit text files within the browser without having to download them locally and re-sync (though I think some of the other file share sites now allow this as well)

Cons

Not the greatest security controls (can't remember if data is encrypted at rest), and any time you use a service like this there's some degree of privacy that you have to give up.
