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.

Built-in integrations increase efficiency but cluster support requires improvement
On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments. Multiple instances need to be set up and configured. In the cloud environment, improvements are ongoing. The fallback and benefit assessment of the product suggest a need for a rating of seven or eight.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Governance and ease of use are why I think a lot of people like Box, including ourselves, because we use a lot of the Box governance features to make sure that what is being sent to Box is appropriate, and it is also pretty easy to use and is the easiest to use for customers and for technologists."
"The sharing feature, with its various permission settings, such as viewing or uploading, is convenient and helpful."
"Simple file sharing and sync for internal and external customers."
"Box is very user-friendly; more so than SharePoint."
"Office Integration. The full integration into the Microsoft Office products is just perfect."
"File and Folder sharing in the organization and outside of it."
"Most of the time, they are running a free 50GB for life promotion, which is a pretty good deal."
"It is a very user-friendly product."
"There are competitors out there, but there's a lot that Oracle Cloud offers outside of giving you just a basic database or basic infrastructure-as-a-service that add a lot of value to it."
"It's a comprehensive solution for managing documents within our organization's management framework."
"The reliability of the system is significant, creating a lot of trust among our customers."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
 

Cons

"Working on documents in real-time is sometimes faulty and could be improved."
"I find their API to be quite complex and it could be more straightforward."
"Like all cloud platforms, there are always areas of improvement around sync to local devices."
"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."
"Tasks and comments could be easier to see, report, search, and manage."
"The Search functionality needs to be more robust and behave like Google Search."
"If you want to delete something in Box, you have to do it manually, one by one."
"Sometimes, their website doesn't work properly."
"The only issue my company has with the tool is the licensing part, which is expensive."
"On the ITM side, there are conflicts, particularly on the convergence side, where it does not support cluster environments."
"Oracle Content Management poses complexities in initial implementation and configuration."
"I would like to see faster turnaround for provisioning new services."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Our pricing and licensing is excellent. I'd tell all Higher Ed customers to talk with Internet2 for excellent pricing and support."
"Better sign a full year's contract to get a discount."
"The more you dig, the deeper the level of tools, and the more expensive it becomes."
"Box's pricing is excellent."
"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."
"My organization pays for the license."
"The tool's licensing part is expensive."
