Box is most things ,a file storage tool should be.

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Box from other similar products?

Box provision for collecting signatures electronically is one of the things, which differentiates it from similar products. I must also point out the enterprise grade-level security provisions that comes with Box , which is essential for safe storage of critical or sensitive work files.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The fact that Box allows me share files with non-Box users, without them even needing to have a Box account or access to a Box software. Another important aspect of my experience with Box so far, is the Box relay feature. This feature is critical to our positive experience with Box and we are utilizing it to create and automate workflow processes for streamlined content collaboration and accelerated completion of simple day to day, operational tasks.

What do you dislike most about this product?

No unlimited file versioning option available for users. At the moment , we are limited to twenty-five versions per saved file. Likewise, I sometimes struggle to upload files through the Box app for Android device. This infact is a regular occurrence as I have seen similar complaints on the Box Android app.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Accessing critical work files from all locations , through different devices is a critical provision for the day to day operational success of businesses. Box is the tool , I will recommend to accomplish the above.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing
  • Enables Productivity
  • Security Protects

Secure and smart content management

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Box from other similar products?

Box has really outdone itself in the secure content collaboration industry with a great set of features such as SmartSync, streamlined workflows, additional encryption layers, smooth mobile experience, and considerably more.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I love how I can easily download and even edit my files in an offline mode. This platform also provides flexibility, a large number of integration capabilities, and centralized content management. It is quite safe to use for file sharing. I have been using its own AI, which offers content summarization and drafting assistance. Along with this, I am able to access and restore older versions of documents in times of need.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I haven't come across anything that made me question or dislike Box.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

If secure file sharing is your priority, you should use Box and especially its Box KeySafe feature, which allows you to add a secondary layer of control using your own encryption key.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Enables Productivity
  • Unique Features
  • Effective Service
