  1. Add ability to manage tags

    Admins need a way to mass edit tags. Sometimes people misspell tags when they're adding them, or sometimes an entire tag itself needs to change completely, and everything that has that tag should be updated. (Check out how Zenhub handles tags for inspiration!)

  2. Flexibility to adjust column settings on the left panel

    Flexibility to adjust column settings on the left panel - where favorites are listed. It is very small and you can not see the entire field name.

    This field is stationary and will not adjust.

  3. Option for condensed/compact UI

    Please consider an option for a condensed Web UI (similar concept to Gmail's cozy/compact): smaller icons, less white space, options to eliminate interface elements like the sidebar. It would be nice to be able to fit more information (filenames, file lists, etc.) on the screen.

  4. Ability to prevent users from adding/deleting files and folders of a specific folder without affecting that folder's sub-folders

    Example: I have a top level folder called 'Top'. Inside that folder I have two other folders 'A' and 'B'. I would like to prevent users from adding and deleting content in the 'Top' folder but still allow them to add and delete content in folders 'A' and 'B'.

  5. Improve ability to see created tags and select tags

    Need to be able to see and select tags that we have created. Right now we just have to guess what tags we have. And hope that we're spelling them correctly. Right now this lack of functionality is going to force us to keep looking for a tool to manage assets for a team.

  6. Share Modal

    The dropdown when you click a Share button to invite someone displays the permission descriptions. The dropdown when you click the person already in a folder does not. It would be nice to have consistency across the UI. Anytime a collaborator appear listed and I click on their permissions, it should include the fin text explaining what each permissions allows them to do.

  8. Ungroup "Tags"

    We still need to be able to see all the tags on a file or folder rather having to click on a grouping link once there are more than a few tags.

  9. show file name in Version History

    Some files with autosave create new versions every couple of minutes (2 hours in a Keynote = 238 Versions). It is necessary to be able to view filename in the Version History sidebar, not just in the preview pane. It is impossible otherwise to determine which file I'm looking for just by looking at version numbers.

  10. Lock Entire Folder (and all files and folders underneath)

    Product Enhancement Request: In the same way that I can currently lock files, it would be great if I could lock things at the folder level and that lock would apply to all files and subfolders within the main folder.

  11. Avoid 3rd-party cookies in embedded widgets with iframe tag

    Cookies in an iframe will be treated as 3rd party.
    Browsers these days are much stricter: create an embedded widget that doesn't require a cookie

  12. Remember sort order for a folder

    Remember the sort order chosen for a folder, whether by date or by name. Some folders will always need to be sorted one way or the other - currently have to re-sort multiple times a day when going back and forth between folders.

  13. "Shared links" - search functionality

    Currently "Shared links" do not have the search functionality or the search bar enabled. This is presenting an issue some someone that needs to share a ton of files and for one reason or another cannot add the users as collaborators.

  14. Open a file contained in a .zio

    When opening a .zip in Box preview allow the user to open a file contained in that .zip file. Today, the user has to download the entire zip file to extract a single file.

  15. Downloading Multiple Files

    Web app needs to make it easier to download multiple files, especially when the list of files spans multiple pages. A checkbox system is the best way to handle this.

  16. Ability to track access log of folder shared link

    We have access stats at file level, but there is no way to check if a folder is accessed via shared links. It would be nice to get counts on how many times a folder was accessed via shared links

  17. Tag within Document Viewer

    Currently, you can only Tag a document when viewing list of files and folders. It would be nice if could Tag document within Box's Document Viewer, likely in the 'Activity' pane where see Add Task and Comments.

    Example, when click on pdf document hyperlink to which brings up pdf document's contents within browser, to be able to Tag directly here.

  18. Overlay menu on left obscures window in Safari

    The overlay menu that appears on the left side of the web page obscures the main Box window and cannot be removed. This happens when you are NOT viewing the Safari Sidebar. If you show the Safari Sidebar, the Box overlay menu does not obscure the web page.

  20. Change Pop up Window for external users downloading files from public share

    There is currently an animated pop up window that appears for external users that are downloading files from a share, The pop up never goes away and states the download is "IN PROGRESS" there is never any indication the download is complete as this pop up forever stays on the screen.

    this pop up only seems to appear when the user is either using a browser for the first time or does not have a Box account. While it is meant to snag additional users to sign up to Box, it is confusing to many users waiting for the download…
