Box is yet another entry into the cloud storage and sharing space for me. I have used it extensively for file sharing thanks to its simple interface and standalone apps. Media files, PDF documents, and other files have been a breeze to share within Box, and I appreciate the flexibility.

Great all-around cloud storage
Mainly used to store larger files that I need for work and to collaborate with co-workers.
All of my main work files are stored in Box, so I can access it from any computer if necessary.
I also make and edit project-level files as needed, as well as reports and other relevant files.

We use Box to store our sales collateral, agreements, videos, etc., which allows us to collaborate with one another regardless of whether we're in the same office or on the other side of the world. I believe their tagline is "Access your data anywhere, anytime, and from any device," and that's the truth. As long as you have Internet connectivity you have access to everything stored in Box, and if you know you're going to be somewhere without Internet, you can download what you'll need ahead of time by dragging it into your quick access folder. It's a fantastic platform, and although we're a very small company, I can easily see how a company with hundreds of employees could securely share files and collaborate in real-time.
- Strong security in the cloud
- Large storage limits
- Real-time collaboration with co-workers from anywhere
- For how we use it it's fine. I don't have any suggestions for improvement.

Box - Just as great as its competitors!
Weve been using Box to share information with external vendors. Its mostly been used by myself and people in quality who needs to be sharing documents with external providers without providing access to our company shared drives.
- Simple and easy interface
- Good permission control
- Solid security measures
- Design really resembles other similar programs...
- The desktop sync version and MS word sync functions are a bit slow

Box is used in my department and across my organization for every activity, which has to do with securely saving work files in the cloud. I find Box easy to use, regardless of my desired medium of access; whether it is a mobile phone, desktop, windows, or iOS.
Asides from file storage, which is our primary use for Box, we also use Box for collaboration and minor workflow automation activity.
- Secured data storage
- File security
- Workflow automation
- Content collaboration
- Offline capability is almost non-existent on Box.

Box delivers the goods for everything around file storage
I use Box to save all forms of data. I need to be able to work effectively in the workplace on a day to day basis. I find Box easy to use and convenient to access across a variety of platforms, regardless of my operating system or computer device type. In regards to my entire organization, Box is used in the same way as mentioned above, while also used for team based collaboration and for streamlining minor workflow processes in select departments.
- Version history
- Secured file storage
- File synchronization across multiple devices in real-time.
- I am absolutely okay with what Box provides me. I used it in my last organization and in my current as well and my experience has been same and positive.

I use Box for sending requests for reviews of my project files. I get requests to create designs for website pages. Upon creation of pages, I send various versions of designs for approvals. I am trying to minimize communications by sending files via Box platform to the project team. I use Box for sending content documents as well along with design files.
- I think box has a good price than some other vendors.
- It helps me updating designs based on comments received from team.
- It helps me minimize communication for getting approvals.
- It will be helpful to get a real time collaboration within files from Box community.

Box currently helps my company solve all concerns, around security of sensitive files we save in the cloud, accessibility of critical content by anyone across my organization and collaboration, to aid productivity across teams and departments. I have used this tool since the first day I joined my organization and I am absolutely satisfied by the quality of file security, the high level data encryption which Box employs and of course the level of seamless productivity Box brings into the workflow process in my company.
- Real-time secured collaboration
- File security
- Multi-platform accessibility
- None. Box has provided me with everything I expect to get from a secured file storage provider.

Primarily, Box is being used for saving our work and official files securely in the cloud, from where we can access them across teams and departments. Of course, beyond file storage, Box also helps to address vital work related activity in the area of electronic signature and workflow automation, in departments outside of mine. However, in my department, we have used Box mainly for storage purposes.
- Secured file storage.
- Collaboration.
- Workflow automation.
- Limited offline capability.
- Aside [from] the aforementioned, I have found my overall Box experience to be satisfactory, both in terms of efficiency and security of content.

Box is used to backup important day to day work files across the length of my coy [company]. I tend to think our use of Box within my coy [company], has improved productivity within my organization, especially in situations where employees need to collaborate remotely. In this kind of situation, Box ensures that we always have access to much needed work files, as long as we can connect to the internet. In select departments within my coy [company], like the marketing department where I work, Box is integrated with internal workflow process, thus resulting in the automation and faster completion of regular day to day simple yet effective tasks such as scheduling events, requesting file access, etc.
- Basic task automation
- File storage
- File collaboration

- Box on web browser is not intuitive.
- Box does not make it convenient to share files with non-Box users.

Box is the backbone of our productivity at the workplace
Box serves my organization for most purposes around file storage and management in the cloud. We obviously also use it for sharing files amongst collaborators . From my own personal experience, I find it easy working with Box across different mediums - as a native extension on desktop, computer web browser and very importantly on my mobile devices as well.
- File content protection.
- Content collaboration.
- In-house wokflow acceleration.
- Box falls short in the area of asset management. As an example , I can not presently synchronize specific folders directly from my computer into my Box.

More Than a File Storage Platform
Box is currently the major platform we use within my work organization for all things around file storage in the cloud. It is currently used across all teams and departments for the aforementioned purpose.
Our Box use case, does however go beyond just securely saving files in the cloud, because Box integrates well with our internal process workflow to ensure that we are seamlessly automating sequential tasks, therefore accelerating productivity in select aspects of our overall operation as an organization.
- Automated collaboration by integrating with internal process workflows
- Integration with third party applications, used across departments within my company
- Secured file sharing
- Secured file collaboration
- I am very absolutely satisfied with the quality I keep getting from Box.

Reliable Secured file storage option.
Box is the sole file storage program deployed across my company, for the over four year period I have worked here. It works on my web browser, on my mobile phone, and as a native installed drive on my computer. I have found Box to be most especially suitable for team collaboration, in the sense of creating team folders and sharing files. The aforementioned are some of the most obvious purposes that Box serves within the length and breadth of my work institution.
- Secured electronic signature collection.
- Integration with regular third-party applications, deployed across my company.
- Secured file storage.
- A tendency for synchronization to fail, without any notification.

For me, the ideal option for enterprise-level cloud-based storage
Whilst we do maintain backup storage options, Box is the ultimate first option for all storage activity, across all departments and teams in my current work institution. It is simply used as a secured, centralized platform where we save team content, share team content, and collaborate as well when the need arises. Box, for me, has proved to be a secure, reliable, and scalable storage platform in terms of its ability to just work fine regardless of what I try to do with it, as far as cloud based file storage is concerned.
- Box simply integrates with every single important application I use at work. For me, this greatly helps when it comes to migrating data from third-party apps for safe-keeping on Box.
- Box is secure--very secure from my experience comparing and contrasting with other cloud storage solutions used in my previous work institution.
- Secured team collaboration.
- Slower file synchronization on mobile application.
- Uploading large files on Box does take longer than any of our backup cloud storage options in my workplace. I was told this was due to Box encryption technology.

Box is quicker than Google Drive for file management
My projects team uses Box to manage project-based documents with the clients. The design files need reviews from our clients on a weekly basis and we use Box to transfer over files to them for review and providing feedback. We are trying to solve the communication issues to discuss feedback for design files. Using Box, we have been able to send files quickly.
- Box is quick to download files. The clients are able to access information as soon as they receive an email from Box with the design file link's information.
- Box allows uploading of multiple files together.
- I don't have a use case where Box needs improvements at this moment.

An important backbone for streamlined productivity.
A box is a container where things can be kept, and my experience with Box is very similar to the aforementioned container, only that storage in Box is very secure. It is so far the cloud content management tool of choice in my company for securely saving files, and it provides me with a frictionless experience with any activity around file storage and collaboration.
- File content security
- Electronic signature collection
- Integration with 3rd party work tools
- User interface flaws on its web browser version

Box helps manage file sharing with teammates
We use Box from time to time to manage files between our clients. Clients send files via Box and we use it to manage those files accordingly. Box helps receive design files and other format files for the projects. If a client wants to send files via Box, then this platform helps us manage them with it.
- Box has a clean user friendly interface.
- It has functionality to manage files upload easily.
- Box has options for users to signup for free so they can receive and download files.
- Integration with Slack would be great.

Secured, scalable cloud based storage.
At present, Box is used by employees of all departments in my company. It serves as a centralized cloud storage platform for members of my organization, from where we can collaborate, share files, and most importantly, save sensitive and everyday work content securely. I think Box has a very positive impact on our overall workflow, makes productive-remote collaboration a lot easier, and ensures that file access is as convenient as it should be.
- File security.
- Smooth file access , courtesy fast device synchronization.
- Seamless integration with third-party work software tools.
- Limited document editing capability.

A Great Tool for secure Cloud Data Storing for Organizations.
Getting everyone on the same page with one place to work together easily on our most important content. Our organization depends on collaboration between lots of people, from teammates to customers to partners and vendors. Making it easy for individuals and teams both inside and outside our organization to do their best work.
- Best-of-breed app integration.
- Simplified workflow.
- Seamless collaboration.
- Data transfer with link to any user is not available like Dropbox and pricing is a little higher compared to Google Drive and lacks more features as a collaboration tool.
- Sometimes there are some syncing issues in the background. Many of our employees face issues while using it from their smartphones.
- During uploading feels like it's slower, by comparing other similar service providers it's definitely slower.

Almost frictionless experience with Box.
Specifically within my own department of my organization, we use Box for sharing files , saving files and other collaborative activity around file storage. It has an huge benefit personally for me, as it enable me upload files into the cloud from one device, and immediately be able to access my uploaded files from other devices, linked to my account.
Personally, I see Box as a top tool when it comes to file version control, file security and file disaster management. At least from my own experience using it.
- File version history.
- File security.
- File collaboration.
- Offline capability with Box, is almost non-existent.
