Box vs. Docmosis vs. S-Docs

I think Box is great for research teams or anyone that has a large number of files that need to be securely stored. Particularly in the case of social science research, where it is important to protect identifying data, Box is a great option. In cases where teams need a more reliable means for real-time collaboration, I would probably consider a different alternative

With customer support and flexibility in handling specific, unique scenarios, they are able to provide solutions quickly. There are no scenarios currently which we are aware that it may be less appropriate. If you have very large documents you should review architecture choices on how best to optimize your performance using Docmosis.

S-Docs would be great for anyone looking to make the process of getting signatures more seamless and less time intensive. You can get a signature in minutes no matter where the signee is located. No more having to worry about printing, scanning, and emailing over important and time-sensitive documents.

• The main feature that I like the most in Box is that it makes collaboration seamless, workers can easily check the documents any time and make changes according to the needs.
• Box manages and backs up all of your files on its cloud servers, and provides a very nice interface for creating, viewing, editing, and collaborating on the most commonly used file types (PDF, XLS, DOC, etc.).
• Over the past few years, Box has built on top of its basic cloud storage management with a host of other tools, such as workflows, AI, monitoring, and analytics.
• It is helping us to make good connections with clients and our workers themselves as to its syncing and viewing feature to all is very much helpful and easy to go.

• Docmosis is excellent at support and will work with you to find a solution for your particular use cases.
• During our evaluation process, they were very helpful to get us up and running and we were one of the first docker based implementations so they worked quickly to get our infrastructure support setup.
• Their solution is very flexible and allows several ways to allow support dynamic document generation at a very good value.

• onboarding
• approval of marketing spend
• approval of travel expenses

• The graphic design of the dashboard should be simpler and more tangible that can be changed to the liking of the Admin.
• Sometimes there are some syncing issues in the background.
• The product has very limited functionality in some areas which could be a bit frustrating at times.

• There isn't much in terms of what could be improved, but the only challenge we have which is in terms of future scaling and isn't a limitation, but just something we're trying to be cognizant of as it might increase our infrastructure costs. Since we have large numbers of multi-nested document templates, and large documents. Although Docmosis did help us reduce the time to generate our largest documents by a large percentage. This is likely an area of improvement that all providers would need to address.

I like the security features and I like the website. It's easy to use and create and move things around as needed. The main reason for a lower rating is because the Box Sync app is just not a good program. It's a memory hog, it's slow, transfer speeds are slow, and it's not the most efficient route. If you have a large Box account and you need to get a computer up to speed on a large amount of data within Box, you are in for the long haul. Last time I had to do this, it took 3 days to sync all of the files and we are talking around 100 GB worth of data

Everything with Box is seamless. It can be integrated into virtually any other software or application. You can even get the app for your phone or tablet to work on the go. File syncing is so quick. The only reason I gave it a 9 is the issue I discussed earlier about the local file application rebooting and not continuing to sync files. Other than that, it's great!

Yeah, it's always worked, I've never had any kind of connection issues, the only issues I've had it I've been on our end when the Internet hasn't worked.

The general operation and management of Box is very efficient, both when accessing the account, and when adding files, downloading or modifying any document directly. The web platform, mobile and desktop versions work really well and quickly, making all the work and process flow smoothly and without setbacks. So far I have not been able to observe any inconvenience

I found their support community lacking in clarity when I experienced a login issue. The error messaging was poor on my Box Sync application. I did not reach out to support staff for help, instead, I reasoned that I should try downloading the Box Sync application again and reinstall it. That fixed my issue, thankfully. I think a less computer-savvy user would've been much more frustrated.

They always respond to support and provide resolutions quickly and even provide the ability for new features/support to be incorporated very cooperatively by help with with alternate solutions as necessary.

The in person training was done in house and I helped with the training, people seem to respond well.

The documentation is good. Since Box is a popular service, there were also a number of YouTube videos and other sources that were helpful as we were considering the product and planning for deployment. Also, the ability to try the free version helped to prepare us.

Be careful with settings. It is easy to get overwhelmed with updates. For example, you don’t want to be updated when doing historical data uploads. I recommend taking off notifications initially and then turn on post you have done your historical data upload.

They are kind of the same. And both of them do their job as promised. But for company and project wise I think that Box slightly wins for some points. Which [makes him] win over Google Drive (don't forget that Google Drive is very easy to use and has a lot [of] nice features too).

We also evaluated Winward Studios solution along with HotDocs, we selected Docmosis for the following reasons:

1. We were using docker very early on, so they were very cooperative in helping us get our infrastructure working during the early evaluation phases, and went above and beyond to help with some of our template processing efforts.

2. When we were looking to improve the processing speed due to our complex large number of dynamically inserted templates, Docmosis was helpful with ideas. We were able to improve speed quite significantly with Docmosis' help by managing some dynamic aspects of our templates and including them inline vs. having them loaded dynamically.

just as easy to use as dousign. Since I do not make the purchasing decisions, I am not sure how these prices compare to each other

It's great, as we put more files on there it's done very well.

• Box has been an only positive experience. It provides a seamless way for me and my team to collaborate on documents in such a way where we're not sending the document back/forth via email. It's a huge timesaver.
• Box reduces the risk of sharing a sensitive document to the wrong person via email.
• Box has provided a platform where my team can share notes in meetings - this has helped streamline and organize our meetings. Our meetings are more productive and actionable.

• Very strong impact on ROI as it's value has been able to scale with our user growth.

• increased efficiency
