Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Box is being used in my current & previously worked organizations as document management platform, for sharing the technical deliverables to the client by safe and secure medium. This basically businesses to share the documents in any format and by assigning the document approval work flow. So we use this platform to share documents (deliverables) to the client, with safety, speed, approval work flow and also get the notifications for the same.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Box is our primary cloud based data storage platform. It is the source of truth for our business data. We word directly from Box and collaborate on documents, utilising the built in communication tools.

Prior to utilising Box, we ran our own data server which was expensive to maintain, lacked collaboration features, was difficult to access remotely, and was less secure than Box.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Box for document management purpose. Box is one of the best Document Delivery System tool available in market. Box also has free version which is having all the necessary features available for using tool perfectly and deciding if premium version is required or not. We need to prepare loading register of the document which we are going to upload and that feature is i think old fashioned apart from that totally recommended.

Box is simple, and useful!
