With Box the collaborations are simple
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Box from other similar products?
The value for money that box offers is effective. Good search and document sharing function because it consolidates your online content into one convenient location to organize, you can create files and folders securely and continue to work with them on the same computer. You can host all your file systems in box, and access it from any device and share files with a simple link.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
For a very lightweight software it is very self explanatory that it has all the advanced features that adapt it to general quality cloud document archiving and sharing services and large document sharing for collaborative work, classification of documents by folders which allows the user to invite external to contribute to specific work areas/topics/documents.
What do you dislike most about this product?
The synchronization function and the synchronization functions of MS word are a bit slow and could be improved, there are times when documents take a while to synchronize, slowing down group work and the limited offline capability as well as falling short in the area of asset management. For example, we cannot currently sync specific folders directly from my computer to our box.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
With box we have not enabled the ability to securely safeguard sensitive and non-sensitive files, which is probably the goal when using Box. However, Box also does well in other areas such as integration with third party applications. we also use it to enhance vital operational activities such as collecting digital signatures, automating certain repeatable tasks and collaboration. It is a good recommendation from many users and customers.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Enables Productivity
- Efficient Service
- Fair
