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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Box is security."
"File sharing with collaborators not on the same domain with offline access from multiple devices: I work on many projects that are multi-organizational, such as with customers, suppliers, or acquisitions."
"Box had a very easy-to-use search feature and a good user interface on its website, which was faster and better than SharePoint."
"File sharing, authorization on the back, its ease of use and reliable uptime performance are valuable features of this solution."
"It is really easy to load files to and from this solution."
"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."
"Box is very simple and effective, so I prefer Box."
"I like the ease of use."
"It provides a single pane of glass for delivering content from multiple repositories. It is also highly recommended because of the ease of use when it comes to searching and retrieving from multiple repositories simultaneously."
"This solution has improved our organization by providing a central repository for business data with control over sensitive data."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
"Mobius excels in ensuring data security for captured content, which is crucial."
 

Cons

"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’)."
"The UI should be faster. Sometimes it lags when switching between documents."
"The integration with other products should be improved."
"In future releases, there could be encryption, to have better security."
"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."
"The upload speed needs improvement."
"Tasks and comments could be easier to see, report, search, and manage."
"I don't like the low level of role-based security it provides – it's very cumbersome, and the support is ordinary at times."
"The setup and the support could be improved when it comes to populating the reports from a mainframe environment."
"The primary area for improvement is the platform's accessibility."
"If it were up to me, I wouldn't use Mobius due to its lack of accessibility and outdated interface."
"Sales and service need to be more consistent."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My organization pays for the license."
"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 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."
"We are using the free version of the solution. There is a free version and monthly and yearly subscriptions available."
"Box needs to improve with their pricing in terms of licensing costs."
"The more you dig, the deeper the level of tools, and the more expensive it becomes."
"It is expensive per head, as you need the enterprise license to get full security and tools. So negotiate a discount!"
"I believe Box is cheaper than SharePoint."
"The pricing and licensing are commensurate with other solutions in the market that handle a distributed system environment."
