Featured Reviews

Jeremey Kenney - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager, Technology & Integration at GlobalMac IT
Secure file governance has improved collaboration and automation for client document workflows
The best features are around security, being able to set up different groups, and the governance features are really great. The new AI functionality that they released has been pretty handy. For governance and security, the audit trail capability is excellent. We are able to see when people interact or change files or if something was deleted, and we can go through and review that audit trail. The AI has been great for creating different workflows that we are able to execute. When a form gets submitted into Box - Intelligent Content Management or a file is uploaded, there are certain automations that we can put in place to where it can essentially generate tickets in our system for new users or other tasks.

Helps us secure viewing of customer accounts; scalability streamlines production of large reports
You can control who views what, as far as security is concerned, in viewing customer accounts. I'm not sure if that was available in the product at the beginning, but we use it extensively now. Also expandability. 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.

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 this solution is the set of security options that can be set when sharing files with a group."
"We can provide controlled access to documents using the product."
"The features I have found to be most helpful over other cloud storage platforms are: Collaboration - just not that it exists, but it is easy and user friendly, allowing data that is necessary to be worked on to be brought to the surface; Security - focus on compliance, encryption, enterprise grade management; 3rd Party Integrations - allowing for Box to truly be a platform to be used with other software."
"It is a very user-friendly product."
"For basic file storage and a little collaboration, the product is fine."
"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."
"They're the most compliant company we've ever encountered."
"File and Folder sharing in the organization and outside of it."
"I would suggest you strongly consider CA View and Deliver; take a big look at it, it's straightforward."
"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."
"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."
 

Cons

"Like all cloud platforms, there are always areas of improvement around sync to local devices."
"The biggest friction point I have encountered with Box is mainly the pricing part; I think five dollars for this platform is not necessarily justified."
"They could integrate better with other platforms."
"Tasks and comments could be easier to see, report, search, and manage."
"In future releases, there could be encryption, to have better security."
"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 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."
"Better integration with other solutions is needed."
"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."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"My organization pays for the license."
"The pricing may seem steep at first, but delve into the features and you'll soon realize it is incredible value for what you get."
"Better sign a full year's contract to get a discount."
"A business account has a minimum of three users. If you are more than three people in-house, go for the Enterprise version. All the external users are free of charge."
"I believe Box is cheaper than SharePoint."
"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."
"It is expensive per head, as you need the enterprise license to get full security and tools. So negotiate a discount!"
"The more you dig, the deeper the level of tools, and the more expensive it becomes."
"It requires other pieces of CA software and license keys, thing like that. That's one thing to keep in mind. It requires CA Common Services in order to actually be licensed to run on LPAR."
