Add comments to different versions of files
Box has version control (it essentially stores every update of a file, i.e. saving the file), however without adding comments it still hard to use it as an actual version control system. Is there a possibility to add comments to file version?

Ability to opt-out or disable presence for a user or enterprise
Admin would like the ability to remove presence for her account as she doesn't want her activity recorded for other users to see.
1 voteInteresting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

Show number of unread notifications on left menu bar
In the past, users were given the number of unread notification they have on the left menu bar. This has now been replaced by a red badge. We would prefer to have the number display so it is more accessible.
2 votesThis is currently not planned. We will let you know if anything changes.

Recents in Sidebar - Display list of Recents in Sidebar
As of April 2018, Favorites now display directly in the Web App sidebar.
This request is to expose Recents directly in the sidebar similar to how Favorites are currently shown.

Preview should either fully support PDF Portfolios or not preview them at all
When our users try to preview a PDF Portfolio document, they see the message "For the best experience open this PDF Portfolio in Acrobat X..." Which is fine since it isn't supported in preview.
However, if the user refreshes the page, it generates a preview for only the first page so then users think that the other content is lost.
If this file type is not supported then no preview showing is better than a partial preview which confuses users.

Ability for a folder owner to opt-out of email notifications when a collaborator shares or accepts an invitation
An Admin owns all folders for the enterprise and she receives an email every time a collaborator invites another user to the folder, and then again when it's accepted.
It caused a lot of noise in her inbox. Short of setting up an Outlook rule, the Admin would like to opt-out of these notifications.
This would be helpful for enterprises whose admin's own the content, or at least root level folders for their users.

Create annotations that aren’t visible to other users
Annotation that only the user/owner can see and not to other collaborators.
5 votesThe overall request for the ability to annotate files in Box is tracked here: https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-feedback/suggestions/35984509-ability-to-annotate-markup-files-documents-ima
Specific to this request, we do not plan to expose the ability to mark up a file (with highlights, drawings, etc.) with annotations that aren’t visible to other users. The primary use case for annotations in Box is to share feedback on a given file, like these examples:
“Update this paragraph to be here instead” on a document or “Change the color of this to blue” on an image -

Box used to have style options for the embed folder/file widget.
We liked the option to customize the Box Embed widget since we embed content on sites like intranets.
When the style options change or are taken away, it really impacts site consistency. Now, we can now only select the widget size, but don't see the Dark or Light option any longer.

Ability to generate shared links with the same settings for multiple items in a folder
We would like the ability to multi-select content, generate shared link references to the content, and either have the result exported to a CSV file or into a table formatted Box Note with File Name and shared link URL.
We are looking to displace existing Wiki functionality in favor of Box
