What differentiates Box from other similar products?
Its robust set of content tools is optimized for digital asset-heavy use cases like marketing. Teams can seamlessly manage campaigns in one place with features such as customizable metadata, an image editor, annotations, watermarking, and real-time collaboration. Previewing over 125 file types eliminates surprises or inconsistencies when sharing materials externally.

It tracks actions and monitors content to prevent data leaks. We store all our campaign assets and client deliverables on the Box platform, giving us peace of mind.
