Manager, Technology & Integration at GlobalMac IT
Secure file governance has improved collaboration and automation for client document workflows
The best features are around security, being able to set up different groups, and the governance features are really great. The new AI functionality that they released has been pretty handy. For governance and security, the audit trail capability is excellent. We are able to see when people interact or change files or if something was deleted, and we can go through and review that audit trail. The AI has been great for creating different workflows that we are able to execute. When a form gets submitted into Box - Intelligent Content Management or a file is uploaded, there are certain automations that we can put in place to where it can essentially generate tickets in our system for new users or other tasks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"All of our different repositories of documents, like SharePoint and Box, were linked to Workspaces to ensure that sharing content was monitored, controlled, and secure."
"The most valuable features are the ability to revoke rights after sending the document, and shoulder browsing protection."
"We use Box as a cloud-based storage service for our employees to share documents, such as presentations, between people, and some of our customers have many gigabytes in files and we set up shared access to them using Box."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the set of security options that can be set when sharing files with a group."
"File sharing for projects and other unique activities have been greatly enhanced."
"The ability to collaborate around data anywhere, anytime is the most powerful features of Box."
"Being able to securely invite, share folders, do version control, and comment on files so quickly and easily without using unsecure large email attachments is a major productivity gain."
"The system's performance is impressive, and file sharing is notably straightforward."
"Box is very user-friendly; more so than SharePoint."
"The application is very light in terms of uploading and downloading files."
 

Cons

"I would like to see workflow implementation, as well as a lite version for non-business users."
"The Search functionality needs to be more robust and behave like Google Search."
"In future releases, there could be encryption, to have better security."
"The search features and role permissions are not very user friendly. It only searches the first few pages of a document, which is quite a problem."
"Box Sync is still a bit buggy and it is difficult to get used to not being able to organize your view of folders as it is determined by the owner of the folder."
"The solution's data security should be improved."
"Data privacy, regarding where to store your data: Offering several transparent(!) options (where to store my data and whether to sync back or not and where to sync) regarding the local law situations (USA, EU, Switzerland!) would increase the credibility of a US based company (after NSA ‘snooping’)."
"I truly believe that Box should have a box consulting division which would really enable customers who do not necessarily want to work with ISVs."
"The UI should be faster. Sometimes it lags when switching between documents."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is expensive per head, as you need the enterprise license to get full security and tools. So negotiate 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."
"Box's pricing is excellent."
"Better sign a full year's contract to get a discount."
"There's a free version that allows you to use it with almost full-feature access. Even in the free version, it gives you all you need."
"I'm in Higher Ed, so we purchase through Internet2-Net+. I absolutely recommend going that route for Higher Ed customers."
"My organization pays for the license."
"We are using the free version of the solution. There is a free version and monthly and yearly subscriptions available."
