Box Reviews

The older the berry, the sweeter the features!

Comments: Using Zapier workflow automation, we were able to mimic a google workspace type experience for our project management needs which we chose box because of a 20+ year relationship and its robust list of available integration options thanks to its multi-decade cultivating of relationships unmatched by any of their competitors.

Pros:

Their Cloud infrastructure is one of the original online storage spaces, which i have used since 2001 to keep my songwriting files secure. My favorite unique advantage that box has is its file versioning. As a songwriter it can be challenging saving updated lyrics though still utilizing autosave to avoid unintended deletion. File versioning combines the two and organizes all versions, with an easy selectbox convenient for final drafting.

Cons:

Their workspace is pretty generic, which can be more seamless as a one-stop project management superapp, which is made possible by zapier

Easy File Searchability and Management

Comments: Overall Box makes organization easier for our small marketing agency. We have tens of thousands of files, if not hundreds, and they're all easily found via the Box app and website.

Pros:

Box makes organizing our server a breeze and finding files quick and easy. The search function and the ability to filter by file type is huge.

Cons:

Depending on specific settings set by the admin, file links sometimes disappear and become inactive. Although this is good for safety reasons, it makes referring to old files a bit inconvenient.

Popular but not as fast-running for all devices

Comments: a lot of companies use this to share files safely

Pros:

ease of use, easy to share files through one cloud

Cons:

It makes my device run so slow- I can only use it on specific devices because it makes it all take so long to load on the box on my pc

Box is where it’s at!!!

Comments: Overall, I thought box was easy to use easy to show others how to use an easy to add documentation to.

Pros:

The product has become more robust through the years of using it at 2 different companies.

Cons:

Sometimes an account needs to be created before someone can view items that are shared.

Good integration with core systems, good options for team sizing and data amounts, slightly harder to use

Comments: One of our core systems had out of the box integration with box.com and we used it for our team. The feedback from our users was mixed. Whilst the integration worked great, the team felt box was a bit harder to use then other competitors.

Pros:

Expandability - nearly any number of team members and storage amounts are supported in either a team or business setting. Good clients - both mac and win clients are supported and work well. Integration - many core business systems have box integrations and the API works well.

Cons:

Pricing is higher than competitors for the same value. The web interface is clunkier than other competitors.

A Formidable Tool for Files Storage and Sharing.

Comments: It's simple to access files with Box on any device, anytime. I can easily search files quickly when using Box.

Pros:

Box enables ease to organize and manage files and documents. It is simple to share files faster using Box. I like how Box enables secure files storage.

Cons:

Comments: Overall it was a needed product at the right time but it didn't quite fill all my needs.

Pros:

At the time I was using it it was one of the only mobile applications available for cloud storage so it was valuable to me as a product

Cons:

The space available for free. I was struggling to get my business going and couldn't afford the cost for all the storage I needed at the time

Simple and sorted file sharing

Comments: Experience is good and helpful with Box. As our main work is logs management and analyse the logs by taking it from customer. This work is easy with Box to take logs and to see the issues with easy storing and sharing capabilities.

Pros:

1. Helpful in storing and accessing large size files with ease and security. 2. Easy login if there is a account and can provide permission to each file. 3. Sharing files with short links, handling company data and signatures are effective and not a big deal now.

Cons:

1. It urge to create account who is not in box to access file which sometimes a headache for customers, 2. Quite costly for small organizations.

Box is amazing

Comments: It offers free storage and it’s content is easily shareable.

I like how secure and convenient it is for storing and sharing files online.

It makes everything we do easy, organized and quick to share so nothing to dislike.

Box - good for the free service tier they offer!

Comments: Box is a good-to-use cloud storage app but there are better alternatives out there.

Box cloud is a browser-focused cloud storage app that offers generous free storage for personal use.

Cons:

Box Cloud's subscription is expensive for the storage amount offered.

Box is my number one cloud storage software!

Comments: Overall Box is my favorite cloud storage software. I use both Online and Mobile App and love the seamless use from one to the other. In all the years that I've been using Box, I have never had a single security issue. The functions are easy and intuitive. File loading and transferring is very fast. Box is a very solid and reliable product, with a high trust factor. I highly recommened.

Pros:

Box offered the best introductory deal, so I gave it a try. I like the clean interface, ease of use, security, and intuitive functions. Box makes file sharing easy and very reliable.

Cons:

I've been using Box for over 3 years and have never had a negative experience.

Helpful for collaboration

Comments: We've used it for years to track various parts of our business, with the persona on site and the one in the office, both able to update, without having to meet or even be in the same place.

Pros:

Quick, simple, easy way to collaborate with others across distances.

Cons:

I really can't think of anything. We mainly use the spreadsheets and it works great.

So easy, so secure, no limits.

Comments: Great. It's so easy to use and I can do all my backup files and sharing files with clients in the same place so I don't have to duplicate work.

Pros:

No limit to file size or number of files and folders for the business (PRO) account.

Cons:

If you want truly unlimited file size and number of files you have to make quite a big leap in price from the standard account.

Solid File Sharing System

Comments: I have been using Box for many years. As an early adopter, I can say that the brand has been loyal to it’s early adopters and that is really appreciated. I only ran into an issue once with a storage related issue and their support team had to run a script to fix it but they were very responsive as they tackled my request in a few business hours which was impressive. Highly recommend.

Pros:

Generous data storage allowance Competitive Pricing Top-notch support team and I’m talking from experience.

Cons:

Sometimes some files get duplicated so you might have to delete doubles manually but I’d rather have my files doubled than deleted. So far the archiving on Box has been a pleasant experience as I never experienced data loss.

Box is a great file storage, sharing, and collaboration tool.

Comments: Overall, the last 4+ years the tool has been really helpful for our organization. We also feel more secure adding files in Box that are sensitive vs Google Drive, so we use this as a backup up location for these types of files.

Pros:

Cloud storage of files that are also accessible in the cloud and desktop. Ability to limit access across staff, project teams, and internal or external organizations. Large capacity for file storage at your fingertips.

Cons:

Some features are not as thoughtout as other tools: renaming large amounts of items like photos, moving files from one folder to another, and many times links shared to outside orgs and emails dont work the first time.

Cons:

I would only like the response times from the customer service team to be faster and not have to wait for long responses.

A robust tool.3+ years using it and it is superb.

Pros:

The safety and security Box brings when sharing files is mond blowing,It is also very easy and effective to send files,download and receive files as well.

Its sync features work amazingly and uploads data in very little time. If I talk about the cost it is a cost-effective tool and provides premium type of services to not only me but also to all users of Box.

Cons:

Box provides secure services, there is nothing to dislike about this tool. I appreciate its team for developing the great features that have created easiness in managing our precious data.

My Box experence

Pros:

I like the ease of use. The navigation is prety neat and the data is well secured.

Sometimes the navigation is not precise but when similar tags are used it works fine. The organization of files could be little more better.

Box Rocks for File Storage

Comments: easy to get started and add on features as we've gone along.

Pros:

Ease of use and the tools/features included. the notifications for downloads and uplaods to collaboration folders is helpful. ability to creat our own workflows and send messages within Box.

Cons:

the workflow creation doesn't work for multiple users utilizing the same workflow. If I create a workflow and another user utilizes it, all communications have my name on them. it sometimes takes a few minutes for the desktop (both Mac and PC) and web versions to sync correctly.

Ideal and very decent platform

Box is great for ensuring that everyone in our organization has access to files we need in a relatively timely manner.It makes sharing large files extremely easy to accomplish.The link provided to view files allows for easy navigation and files load open very easily.

So far I have been pleasantly pleased with the efficiency of the operating system on the whole.

Simple and clean. We have developed a process and system using the box cloud, and it has been a game changer for our business.
