Box is about keeping my files safe.

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Box from other similar products?

File security and encryption on the Box platform is top notch . Personally, I can say no cloud storage program comes close to Box in terms of its encryption technology and file security.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I like that Box more or less works across all platforms , through which I access it. Whether I am using Box on mobile phone or on desktop, I always get a smooth experience.

What do you dislike most about this product?

There is always this tendency for automatic synchronization to suddenly stop. This has left me having to always continuously check all of my devices, to confirm if their records of my file storage activity is up to date.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It obviously has its limitations, some of which are glaring. However, Box more than make up for them in terms the level of security it provides users.

Pros

  • Helps Innovate
  • Continually Improving Product
  • Reliable
  • Performance Enhancing

Box’ will help you think out of the Box

Likeliness to Recommend

7 /10

What differentiates Box from other similar products?

The box provides a clear UI, easy integration with your OS, both free and paid versions. It is very useful if you need to share files with you, especially. As it is no small task to share with other people. It’s straightforward when you meet a client or peer using this system.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

We have chosen Box as a backup and solution Cloud for our company business. The fact that you can browse files directly from your OS as a file folder is excellent - even though it is similar to other services now. What really stands out is the ability to edit Photoshop PSD without downloading it.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Although, the interface is simple and optimized for your seamless operating system yet, the biggest challenge to set up. There seems to be no place to set which documents you would like to make a backup copy of. Somehow, though, things are backed up amazingly. It is unclear how it works. There do not seem to be any documents or tutorials on setting up some backup folders.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Examine the case carefully and aggressively. Box failed to meet all of its promises. Apps are not working; the system will not be synced. That is the most important function of the system, if not its intended purpose.

Pros

  • Reliable
  • Trustworthy
  • Efficient Service
  • Effective Service
