"It is really easy to load files to and from this solution."
"Sharing and collaborating across files and folders has been a massive game changer."
"The interface is very good."
"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."
"Simple file sharing and sync for internal and external customers."
"The most valuable feature of Box is security."
"You can upload your bin, upload your files quickly, and download your files quickly. It provides a lot of other alternatives."
"We standardized our CIS log processing with CA View. We support a whole bunch of LPARs, about 80 or so. When we go to an LPAR, we know just where the CIS log is, it's in CA View, and we know how to get to it, we don't have to search around for it."
"It's easy to add more space to it when you need and to. If you're producing large reports it's easy to increase so you can handle the new volume that may come along."
"Like all cloud platforms, there are always areas of improvement around sync to local devices."
"The room for improvement is in the area of integrations. They need to establish more integrations, especially with Office 365 and Outlook."
"If there was a plugin that added some sort of toolbar in Office, that would be great."
"If you want to delete something in Box, you have to do it manually, one by one. That was my recent experience. They might have a bulk delete, but I could not find that option. If you want to delete something, you have to go to each and every file and delete it."
"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."
"With OneDrive, you can continuously save your files over a Box folder. That is something I wish we could have."
"They could integrate better with other platforms."
"Maturity of the enterprise security around user management."
"There was one customer we were trying convert over, and it was complicated. There were retention criteria which seemed a little more limited than with some of the other products."
"I believe they do probably have a GUI interface for the laptop, so you can just use the interface instead of the mainframe ISPF interface. I think that's already available but, if not, that would be my only issue."
