"Box office"
What do you like best about Box?

I like that it's very fast and works great even just logging in and uploading files on the web , it's very convenient in a pick up and go kinda way, uploads are fast and simple

What do you dislike about Box?

Well it can become overbearing on the rules and regulations of sharing and ownership, the verification system could do for an upgrade , I was being redirected a few times out of my own files with error reading I did not have permission to view but hadn't even shared the link with anyone but myself

What problems is Box solving and how is that benefiting you?

Well I'm able to finally get my teams in order and take advantage of my software that includes Microsoft Office along with box drop and a few more features we use , it's putting everything in order lovely which makes for even better business growth

What do you dislike about Box?

Box does not seem to cater very well to individual users, and there are no good subscription options if you want a single-user license.

What problems is Box solving and how is that benefiting you?

Box enables our entire organization to collaborate on projects securely.

"Easy way to store collegiate work."
What do you like best about Box?

Clean. Simple. Effective. Box does an excellent job of storing files on the cloud so that they are accessible across all devices where you have a stable internet connection. As a college student, it makes backing up my class assignments easy. I am able to transfer files between my phone, laptop, and desktop computer with ease. If I have an assignment that I want to work on at home, I am able to start it on my desktop. Then, when I go to class, I can download it on my laptop and complete my work.

What do you dislike about Box?

The only downsides of Box are a minor user interface issue and inconsistent upload speeds with medium-to-large-sized files. When I first started using Box, I would always right-click below my files or in folders expecting to be presented with an upload option so I could quickly upload my materials. Unfortunately, this is not an option, you have to drag in files or hit the "New+" button in the right-hand corner of your window. But, as I said, this is a minor issue. The larger issue I have is with the upload speeds. When I want to upload files that are larger than just a word document, it seems to take ages to upload to the cloud. Most of the time I have had no issues, but there is a chance that the upload progress bar seems stuck right toward the end of my upload.

What problems is Box solving and how is that benefiting you?

Box is solving the problem of having too many tech devices and not enough ways of transferring files. It benefits me because I am able to quickly transfer files from my phone, laptop, or desktop computer with ease.

What do you dislike about Box?

There is nothing negative I can say about this product.

What problems is Box solving and how is that benefiting you?

Safety and accessibility. No one can get into my files unless I give them access to it. Updates are done in real-time, which makes life easier!

"A vital tool for collaboration"
What do you like best about Box?

I think the interface is great. There are many options for protecting, sharing, and organizing your files and version control. It now integrates with almost any other platform you could imagine using, providing incredible flexibility for accessing your files anywhere you need them.

What do you dislike about Box?

I would like the ability to have more user role types other than the standard three and to track shared file usage.

What problems is Box solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps our company quickly share files for collaboration, it affords one place where we can keep all of the essential documents needed to reference daily and allows us to access them on any device at all times.
