  1. Box Status site improvement

    1. Adding status of each region on Box Status site(https://status.box.com/) , because currently an outage impacting only users in a specific zone/region doesn’t appear on the status site. (e.g. customers who are in Asia region are unable to download/upload/preview.)

    2. Clarifying the definition of impact. "Incident Response and Communications" article (https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/360043697394-Our-Approach-to-Incident-Response-and-Communications) has the guideline of customer impact. However, definitions and examples of each category are not clear enough.

  3. Restrictions on the use of direct links/直接リンクの利用制限

    When issuing a shared link, the direct link is displayed on the screen transition of "Link setting" from the shared link issue screen, so there are cases where the direct link is used by mistake.
    There are many cases where users with free accounts cannot use it because they share files using direct links.
    Therefore, please make improvements so that the use of direct links can be restricted on a tenant-by-tenant or folder-by-folder basis.

    (In Japanese)
    共有リンクを発行する際、共有リンク発行画面から「リンク設定」の画面遷移に直接リンクが表示されているため、間違えて直接リンクを利用するケースがあります。
    直接リンクを用いてファイル共有を行ってしまい、無償アカウントのユーザーが利用できない事が多発しています。
    そのため、テナント単位やフォルダ単位で直接リンクの使用を制限できるよう改善をお願いします。

  4. View saved reports generated by other users

    Currently, a co-admin can view reports run by other users, but not save reports created by other users. We would like our IT Service Desk to create on demand monthly reports that we would provide to some of our content owners. This would require all members of our IT Service Desk to have visibility over all existing scheduled reports

  5. An option for Admin to toggle and lock Personal Workspace to NOT share with others.

    People use their Personal Workspace to create and share documents with important information. If they leave the company, then those they shared with lost the data (after XX days). SOLUTION: provide Admin the option to toggle and lock Personal Workspace to NOT share.

  6. Send box drive logs to any email address

    Allow users to send box drive logs to a given email address rather than ONLY to Box Support. Remote debugging is difficult when we can't work directly with our end users' logs.

  7. word comment email

    We wanted Box to send an email notification to a specific collaborator when we comment in Word Online using Word's comment feature. It would be nice if the email includes the link to the comment in the Word Document.

  8. Box Sign - Results of filled out fields populate into a CSV.

    Results of Bulk Send, Ready Sign, and/or individual contracts populate into a CSV.

    E.g. I fill out W9 fields [NAME], [Address], [Social Security #], etc., and these results populate into a CSV.

  9. Language of signature requests

    I would like to choose the language in which a signature request is sent. could be English by default but if we know the person speaks a different language then we can select that language.

  10. Allow resizeable/full-screen file search form

    Actually the file search UX in Windows has a design giving priority to form over function, with a concept half-way resembling a tray application notification.

    The problem with that is that the ridiculous window size most of the time trims relatively long file paths to the point of having on-screen indistinguishable search results for different files, if they are at somewhat deepth in the file tree. The smallnes brings also unnecesary scroll, and forces the pains of a self imposed real-state screen-space shortage, more proper of mobile devices but undesirable in desktop.

    Let file search have the first class interface…

  11. Add collaborators automatically upon request from who wants the access.

    When a new collaborator is identified but not added as a collaborator yet, he/she needs to wait until permission. To reduce this idol time, automatically permit access first upon request. Check the collaborators afterwards if required. Existing folder collaborators can designate the folder that needs this function.

  12. Recent Box Notes design update - make optional the in-table adjusts

    I type into cells in tables and find it disorienting that they now highlight to allow for changes. I would prefer this to be an optional UI, and be able to opt out and revert to old design where I had to click on top icons to remove or add cells.

  13. Recent Box Notes design update - I need table width consistency, dislike the off-page scrolling

    I use Box Notes quote a bit throughout every day and am really struggling with this new design update, especially to the tables formatting. I use a new table for each day's notes, and make a new file every month.

    This design update has completely messed up the formatting of each table's size: some horizontally scroll off page, some truncate columns and cut words in half, and none are default to width of page. It's extremely disorienting and has set me back quite a few hours.

  14. Co-authoring name display

    Per the recent update to Box Notes, you no long can see the names of the people co-authoring the Note consistently while working. They now only show up as a line in the document making it very difficult to locate, especially when the Note gets very large. Please bring back the display of names at all times

  16. Back up desktop and documents folder

    It would be really useful if there was an option within box drive that would sync the users desktop documents and perhaps download folder to a folder within box.

    I know users could just save the files on to box drive but that doesn't always happen (temp needed files etc) this would act as an almost auto back up feature.

  17. Start Box Drive on windows startup instead of user login

    We have a PC that share Box content on our LAN but it's incredible that when the PC restarts Box Drive does not start until a user does login to the pc. For us it mandatory that Box Drive starts on windows startup instead of user login. We tried to schedule the action but Box process fail with an error that windows is not started in interactive mode.

  18. Make item selection of Content Explorer more kindly

    Currently item selection of Content Explorer is difficult little, because only character area can be clicked.
    I hope thumbnail area also can be clicked, so that item selection of Content Explorer can be more kindly.

  19. Export Control (ITAR/EAR) support by Box Shield (Increase the maximum number of Shield Classifications & Applying a classification label to

    In the case of having global offices/teams, contents related to Export control are dispersed globally. However, the contents need to be in compliance for Export control.
    The following two enhancements work well for supporting ITAR/EAR with dispersed contents in one Box entity:
    1. Increase the maximum number of Shield Classifications - There is a limitation Classification (it's 25) now. To create combination label via country-base for ITAR/EAR, it requires a larger number of classifications.
    2. Applying a classification label to a specific group - this ability is required to support large number of Classification (above enhancement).

  20. Full Image Thumbnail Option

    For the image thumbnails, is there a way to toggle the view, so that one can see the entire image vs. a cropped version? I've noticed a recent change where all thumbnails are cropped, and in order to view the full image you need to click to open each individual file, which is a less efficient browsing method. Is it possible to return to the previous viewing option to see the full image within each thumbnail?
