"Virtual Documents" / Groupings of documents that together form one master document
Box should have the ability to get documents together in a collection. This collection should then be versionable, regardless of the versions of the documents.
Thinks a personal dossier. Some documents might update a couple of time, before I declare the whole dossier as a new version.
Tools like documentum have a concept of virtual documents. My opinion to those implementation is that they are really bad from a user perspective. Therefore we should do it better.

Thanks for the suggestion!
While all our products are available in Brazilian Portuguese, adding support for European Portuguese is something that is currently not on our immediate roadmap. -
Create Colorized folder icons for externally shared folders
We would like an additional color (besides grey, blue, yellow) for folders that are shared with external people.
9 votesWe decided to add an external collaboration indicator within details sidebar to solve for indication of external sharing status as introducing colorized icons solely to indicate external sharing status would not be accessible.

Setting which prevents users from being able to delete commenting
Business unit has a requirement to prevent users from deleting comments to comply with audit requirements.
We were suggested using user activity reports to see when people had deleted comments, reactively - but we do not want to build a process to generate a user activity report to reactively investigate a case.
1 voteThank you for your suggestion! This is a narrow use case which does not have broad impact. We will review other use cases and continue to monitor demand.

Show amount of time left to complete upload and the number of files remaining
It only shows a progress bar but I would like a % complete and time to complete on the progress bar as well. Also if it could show number of files that are being uploaded and how many are left. That would be very helpful when I am uploading a lot of documents and want to know long it will take to upload.
3 votesWe currently have a progress bar in the upload manager that indicates percentage complete. Adding an estimate for time could be helpful for users, but we won’t be able to prioritize this ask due to conflicting priorities – I’d suggest using the percentage complete as a benchmark for now.

1 voteInteresting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

Prevent the easy deletion of root level folders
We accidentally deleted a root level folder for millions of folders.
This may be done by locking the folder, where it could allow users to create/edit/delete the contents within the folder, but not allowing the locked folder itself to be rename/moved/deleted.
This may also help Box Sync (and possibly Box Drive) users, as many Box Sync users often delete the top level folders by accident.

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.

Simplify New User Sign-Up
If you don't have a Box account and someone invites you into a folder as an external user, the process to create account seems cumbersome with a lot of steps.

Remove all collaborations on folders you own and co-own
Currently the Collaborations menu allows you to remove all collaborators on content you own. Some enterprises make one account the owner of all content, but would still like their users to be able to manage users.
