Manage extensive content workflows with user-friendly interface and WebScan feature
What we appreciate about Arc XP is its comprehensiveness. For media organizations with numerous content contributors, creators, and curators, Arc offers a complete solution that addresses all their needs. It provides all the necessary tools for managing extensive content workflows, which we find particularly valuable. Another standout feature is its user-friendly interface. It’s very intuitive, similar to Microsoft Word, making it accessible for journalists and content creators who may not have technical expertise. Lastly, the WebScan feature is exceptional. It functions like a newsroom project management tool, helping to organize and track content planning and workflow. This feature is unique to Arc and is highly beneficial for editorial planning.

Team collaboration has improved through shared access and real-time synchronization
I find the synchronization feature most valuable in Box. When I use multiple devices, it syncs them together and gives excellent results. I can assess the benefits of Box's file sharing. Box's integration with third-party apps is valuable, especially with Outlook. Box has helped my team's productivity by being very helpful with team collaboration when we are sharing certain shared documents between us. I mostly value Box's automation capabilities. They have helped optimize my business processes by saving time for sharing or sending files between the team. This gives us a shared workspace to work together on the same document or the same ideas. Box's security features have helped my organization meet compliance needs.

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"A business account has a minimum of three users. If you are more than three people in-house, go for the Enterprise version. All the external users are free of charge."
"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."
"I believe Box is cheaper than SharePoint."
"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."
"The more you dig, the deeper the level of tools, and the more expensive it becomes."
"My organization pays for the license."
"It is expensive per head, as you need the enterprise license to get full security and tools. So negotiate a discount!"
"I'm in Higher Ed, so we purchase through Internet2-Net+. I absolutely recommend going that route for Higher Ed customers."
