Find out what your peers are saying about Dropbox, Microsoft, Google and others in Content Collaboration Platforms."The most valuable features are the ability to revoke rights after sending the document, and shoulder browsing protection."
"The solution is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of Box is security."
"I like that Box makes it easy to deploy virtual machines."
"Box is very realistic when it comes to sharing capabilities."
"The ability to collaborate around data anywhere, anytime is the most powerful features of Box."
"Sharing and collaborating across files and folders has been a massive game changer."
"The application is very light in terms of uploading and downloading files."
"Governance and ease of use are why I think a lot of people like Box, including ourselves. Basically, we're concerned about what information is being sent to Box, so we use a lot of the Box governance features to make sure that what is being sent to Box is appropriate. If it is not appropriate, it is not allowed to be sent. It is also pretty easy to use. It is the easiest to use for customers and for technologists."
"SharePoint is already moving to cloud, if you are using SharePoint online, which is cloud-based technology, it is more accessible."
"Its functionality is enormous."
"The search feature is valuable."
"Information is much more readily available."
"It has helped us with storing all the documents, which means that people are not going to intervene. There is a way of extracting knowledge within documentation and tracking it. There are knowledge assets for where documentation is stored, indexed and searchable through SharePoint."
"The metadata services, the WCF service integration and the Voxel feature are three most valuable elements of this solution."
"SharePoint has an option where you can open files on the browser, whereby more than five people can make amendments to one Excel online file."
"The product provides flexibility in collaboration."
"I would like to see workflow implementation, as well as a lite version for non-business users."
"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."
"I would love to see the ability to invite collaborators extended to a file level, not just the folder level."
"Like all cloud platforms, there are always areas of improvement around sync to local devices."
"The solution's data security should be improved."
"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."
"If there was a plugin that added some sort of toolbar in Office, that would be great."
"Tasks and comments could be easier to see, report, search, and manage."
"With OneDrive, you can continuously save your files over a Box folder. That is something I wish we could have."
"The way to change the version of the files in SharePoint should be improved. The method of synchronizing files from local to the cloud can also use improvement."
"The limitations and boundaries must be extended."
"Make it more intuitive."
"We'd like to be able to upload from MS Excel to deploy tasks and use drop-down lists to collect further information."
"One issue is that when users mistakenly hide files or set permissions incorrectly, it can lead to files becoming inaccessible, requiring intervention from Microsoft support to resolve."
"SharePoint sometimes cannot handle the amount of co-editing that we do."
"It should have more user-friendly customization, as it still requires developers to get engaged and build sites."
"The support is the worst. It is bad when Microsoft support does not even know what to do and you have to tell them. Also, they take too long to solve a problem."
