Consultant at a tech vendor with 51-200 employees | 4.0 | I used Box primarily for storage due to its efficient search, user interface, and foldering system. Despite some collaboration challenges and a tricky installation, it surpassed SharePoint in performance, saving time and ensuring effective file management and retrieval. |
Program Administrator at Flextronics | 3.0 | I use Box for data storage and collaboration within my team, acting as a secure repository to share documents across the organization. However, it lacks a feature to retrieve deleted data, and internal data security could be improved. |
Software developer at TAIGLE LLC | 3.5 | I have integrated Box into our platform to store documents, utilizing its document management and e-signature features. Box is effective as an enterprise solution, offering controlled access, but improving the product's price would be beneficial. |
Regional account manager at a tech services company with 51-200 employees | 4.5 | I use Box for sharing documents externally, valuing its security and flexibility. While similar to Google Drive, an increase in capacity and better encryption would improve it. Despite trying alternatives, I find Box simple and effective, preferring it over Microsoft. |
Service Management Consultant at Tata Consultancy | 3.5 | No summary available |
Technical Adviser at a computer software company with 5,001-10,000 employees | 3.0 | I use Box to store and share documents efficiently, finding its sharing feature particularly valuable. However, challenges with the permissions system, reporting, and API call costs have been significant enough to prompt a transition to SharePoint. |
Medical Director at University OH Partners | 5.0 | I find Box to be a very secure tool for sharing files with external clients. Its most valuable feature is security. However, real-time document collaboration could be improved, and I wish it integrated with more apps. We've seen a return on investment. |
Senior Manager, IAM (Des317) at Inspira Enterprise | 4.0 | We use Box as our central hub for file storage and organization, appreciating its impressive performance and simple file sharing. However, the API and user interface are complex and could benefit from simplification to improve the user experience. |
