Structured cloud storage has streamlined document collaboration and automated workflows
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. While I have used it for integrating and using it as a cloud platform, I have not encountered any significant negative aspects. A few times, I might have faced performance issues, but I am uncertain whether that was due to the automation platform or Box itself. Overall, the only thing I could mention is that it can take a little time to understand how the integration works with Box; setup and figuring out what can and cannot be done might take some time, but other than that, I do not think anything else bothered me. One thing I would want Box to introduce to improve the platform and make it stand out even more would be incorporating AI. For example, the only way to identify documents shared in Box currently is by their names, and if those names are not precise, I can get confused. If Box had an AI feature to summarize and identify documents based on their contents, it would significantly enhance usability. AI is essential for making work easier, so that would be an excellent addition to the platform.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"You can upload your bin, upload your files quickly, and download your files quickly, and you can use it on your own, on an iPad, or on your mobile phones whenever you wish to."
"The application is very light in terms of uploading and downloading files."
"Box had a very easy-to-use search feature and a good user interface on its website, which was faster and better than SharePoint."
"They're the most compliant company we've ever encountered."
"Most of the time, they are running a free 50GB for life promotion, which is a pretty good deal."
"I like that Box makes it easy to deploy virtual machines."
"Box is very realistic when it comes to sharing capabilities."
"The document management system (DMS) has a fast retrieval time regardless of the stored volume."
"Our accounts department's invoicing process has been optimized and this has helped us in saving a lot of time."
"The tool's security has improved our management process. Its integration is good. It offers ready APIs that you can customize without developing the code. You don't have to go to the code level to implement the integration parameter."
 

Cons

"I would like to see features for online collaboration between team members in the future, to open and see who is accessing the document now and see my movements across the document or the file we are sharing together."
"Collaborative editing was challenging if multiple people were in a document at once."
"The Search functionality needs to be more robust and behave like Google Search."
"It could be cheaper."
"Maturity of the enterprise security around user management."
"I don't like the low level of role-based security it provides – it's very cumbersome, and the support is ordinary at times."
"I truly believe that Box should have a box consulting division which would really enable customers who do not necessarily want to work with ISVs."
"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."
"We need to work on establishing a stable licensing model. When licensing terms change frequently, customers find it difficult to budget effectively."
"Newgen could open up more to the education segment by making resources easily available to customers, similar to IBM and SAP certifications."
"The Arabic language text search ability needs to be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"I believe Box is cheaper than SharePoint."
"Better sign a full year's contract to get a discount."
"I'm in Higher Ed, so we purchase through Internet2-Net+. I absolutely recommend going that route for Higher Ed customers."
"Box's pricing is excellent."
"They are very price competitive when pushed. Initially, they come out with a standard list price, but they are willing to be very competitive. The Box price was pretty much equal to or lower than the Citrix price, and Box has more features."
"Our pricing and licensing is excellent. I'd tell all Higher Ed customers to talk with Internet2 for excellent pricing and support."
"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 rate the tool's pricing a seven out of ten."
