File Accessing via BOX

We are using this platform to share brochure and quotation to the customers extremely securely with full accessing permissions. It allows us to make partners file folder separately to keep their file records.

Pros

1. User-friendly , secure, stable storage cloud platform.
2. Extremly helpful for external users to share and access files securely with environment.
3. Keep record of highly confidential data properly.
4. It allows us to give file accessing permission individually.

Cons

1. Extremely high in cost.
2. Little bit off when it ask for external user to create account for file accessing.
3. Difficult to search document from the records of particular entry.

Better then most online storge services (free account).

The share option is much better than other services.

Pros

The interface is very user friendly , on desktop and mobile.

Cons

The storge space on a free account is a bit low compared to other online storge services.

Box is Useful But Beware of Storage Constraint

Good for cloud files and integrations but storage space constraint is a big turnoff.

Pros

Vast amount of applications are integratabtle. Very dependable and great for file management in the cloud.

Cons

The storage provided is a limiting factor. Desktop syncing resulted in some issues that were not desirable.

Great software but not perfect

My overall experience with Box was really good but not without flaws.

Pros

I liked the ease of being able to transfer files between office computers at a very competitive price.

Cons

The sychronisation was sometimes slow and the software was very limited with compatibility of operating systems.

Alternatives Considered

Google Drive

Reasons for Switching to Box

Cheaper and a recommendation from other colleagues
