Customer support is always very prompt and very informative. Box making collaboration very easy. note taking and text editing features are optimal > > **Cons**: The only thing I would have to say is the price and only because I think storage should be free but I know that's not good > > Delighted and a very happy user who will continue to use the service until I die or pass always from age ----- ### "Handy instrument for content collaboration" — 4.0/5 > **Maria** | *22 April 2026* | Pharmaceuticals | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: It is easy to collaborate on documents. I can leave comments or propose changes in the text - it is very handy for articles and other documents, because we have a lot of people involved in the content creation and coordination. > > **Cons**: The interface might be confusing for less technically sophisticated people. I had to create a video tutorial on commenting because some colleagues couldn't figure out how to open the document and leave their notes. > > As an editor, I work with articles from multiple authors and collaborate in a box with authors, medical reviewers, and other stakeholders. We collect all the comments for materials and work on them together before we reach an agreement, and the document is accepted. Box helps keep all the history of comments and changes, and it also helps avoid the situation where someone has the wrong or outdated version of the article for review. ----- ### "Easy program to use for doc sharing" — 5.0/5 > **Lela** | *30 April 2026* | Legal Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's nice to have easy access to documents shared to your file. Easy to download and save to your file as needed. > > **Cons**: That if you don't log in for a while it's like you have to get a reset password to log back in. Time consuming when need documents quickly. > > Great experience being able to receive documents shared by another party and can download as needed to file. ----- ### "Not Sure About Box" — 3.0/5 > **Valerie** | *27 April 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: Box is a decent file storage program that allows for ease of access to files on the cloud. It has helped with team collaboration and productivity, especially in terms of storing, organizing, and sharing video files. > > **Cons**: Box has upload speed and file size limitations that make it very cumbersome to upload large video files. Uploads time out or have errors and require starting over. There's also no system in Box to help with organizing files. I wish they would implement an AI system, like Hey Eddie, that can scan files, describe them, group them into folders, and tag them so they're easy to find and search for. It's very difficult to do that manually all the time, especially when working on a small team that works on 24 events a year. The manual time it takes to sort things correctly in Box cuts into our productivity, > > It's very mixed. On one hand, it's easy to share files across teams and collaborate. On the other, the limitations of this platform can really cut into our ability to be more creative and productive. I wish they had a better solution for creative teams, especially video teams. However, if you're just looking for a document sharing system (or not large files or a high volume of files), this should be fine. ----- ### "Very good file storage & collaboration platform" — 5.0/5 > **David** | *17 April 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to send an "upload" only link to someone is a great feature when working with external people. It allows them to upload their files without being able to view or access the original folder or see what other people may have uploaded. The folder structuring is pretty standard compared to other platforms but Box does a really good job with granular collaboration permissions from the parent folder and down. Configuring organization wide settings is easy to setup as well. UI is modern, clean, and easy to navigate. > > **Cons**: Box is a little on the pricier side when compared to other platforms and some of the more advanced features are hidden behind an additional license/add-on. There is no native "team/shared folder" feature. If you need to create a team/shared folder, it has to be created within someone's individual account. You essentially need to start off with creating a service account user and then creating all your team/shared folders within that service account. > > Box overall is a very good file storage and collaboration platform. Web interface is easy to use and navigate and the desktop app syncs and works well within File Explorer or Finder. Its great when collaborating with external users because you can either give them access to a folder with granular permissions or you can generate a link for them to upload files to only. Reporting is good as well as you can report on all user and file/folder activity (for both internal and external users). It can be on the pricier side especially if you want some of the more advanced features such as a Shield or Goverance or Retention Policies. ----- Page: 1 / 227\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/18947/box-enterprise?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/18947/box-enterprise) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
