An easy-to-setup solution with good scalability
We used the solution for storing digital assets Before implementing Acquia DAM, our organization had all its digital assets spread across various storage systems. We can now centralize all of them within a single infrastructure component, enabling easier discovery, versioning, and utilization of…

Structured cloud storage has streamlined document collaboration and automated workflows
The biggest friction point I have encountered with Box is mainly the pricing part; I think five dollars for this platform is not necessarily justified. While I have used it for integrating and using it as a cloud platform, I have not encountered any significant negative aspects. A few times, I might have faced performance issues, but I am uncertain whether that was due to the automation platform or Box itself. Overall, the only thing I could mention is that it can take a little time to understand how the integration works with Box; setup and figuring out what can and cannot be done might take some time, but other than that, I do not think anything else bothered me. One thing I would want Box to introduce to improve the platform and make it stand out even more would be incorporating AI. For example, the only way to identify documents shared in Box currently is by their names, and if those names are not precise, I can get confused. If Box had an AI feature to summarize and identify documents based on their contents, it would significantly enhance usability. AI is essential for making work easier, so that would be an excellent addition to the platform.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is a stable solution."
"File/Folder collaboration has allowed our users to work together, eliminate silos and reduce unnecessary email."
"The ease of using Box on multi-platforms, including my phone and tablet, along with the collaboration features means I've been able to use it with my family (including my non-tech-savvy parents) for simple sharing, as well as with colleagues for team collaboration."
"Customer Service: Great! Technical Support: Technical support people really know their stuff, Great service."
"Box is very simple and effective, so I prefer Box."
"Most amazingly its integration with Office 365 (online) is one of the best features it has other than integrating with other apps like Salesforce, etc."
"I like the ease of use."
"The most valuable feature of Box is security."
"Office Integration. The full integration into the Microsoft Office products is just perfect."
 

Cons

"There could be better web documentation for the solution."
"I recommend doing the trial first, because it's not cheap ware. It's not overly expensive, but it's not cheap ware, and enterprise has a minimum number of users."
"I haven't really come across a case where we're not able to use it for what it is, so I don't really have anything holding us up or any customers holding us up at this point that I know of. There are always some limitations, but as a technologist, I just live with them, and there is always room for improvement, but I don't have anything quantifiable."
"The integration with other products should be improved."
"I would love to see the ability to invite collaborators extended to a file level, not just the folder level."
"The solution's data security should be improved."
"The security settings are such that if I have a folder with subfolders several levels deep, whatever security setting I have for the parent folder gets inherited at all the subfolders. This has been limiting."
"I don't like the low level of role-based security it provides – it's very cumbersome, and the support is ordinary at times."
"Tasks and comments could be easier to see, report, search, and manage."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution was very inexpensive in comparison with the other vendors."
"Box's pricing is excellent."
"Better sign a full year's contract to get a discount."
"The pricing may seem steep at first, but delve into the features and you'll soon realize it is incredible value for what you get."
"I'm in Higher Ed, so we purchase through Internet2-Net+. I absolutely recommend going that route for Higher Ed customers."
"The more you dig, the deeper the level of tools, and the more expensive it becomes."
"I have to pay for Box. It could be a little cheaper. On a scale from one to ten, I would give the pricing a five."
"Box needs to improve with their pricing in terms of licensing costs."
"They are very price competitive when pushed. Initially, they come out with a standard list price, but they are willing to be very competitive. The Box price was pretty much equal to or lower than the Citrix price, and Box has more features."
