  2. It would be good have two people collaborate when both use box drive

    Right now, the only way to collaborate is using box drive and MS 365 online-- which has a clunky interface. Would be good to have people working in Box Drive be able to jointly edit documents. Sharepoint Sync allows that to happen, but Box Drive does not.

  3. Monthly Traffic metric reset

    my account says 37GB of 10 GB used, and my monthly traffic is summing up but is not reset every month

    [ REFRESH ] - Button to initialise some kind of "reboot" for the account, to review the status and make hick-ups vanish.

  4. priority

    Can we have an option to select or prioritize which comes first and so on. So you can setup a priority of uploads to a level of a single file upload.

    Example: have several large files uploading now. and a small file that its not uploading until the large files are done.

    If you can right click on the file and set to "urgent" or "push now".

    I’m uploading a large directory tree with Box Drive, and I’d like to know the status of the files being transferred. I’ve been reading about this in the support area of their web site.

    From the Box website, it appears that the way to do this is by looking at icons next to files which change color.

    There are two issues with this:
    I am blind and use screen reading software that can’t distinguish icons. The Box people need to know about this accessibility problem.
    I’d rather have an overall report. But there’s nothing available in the Box Drive UI.

  6. Increased accessibility of upload status of a file for visually impaired users

    Currently, in Box Drive the only way to check the upload status of a file/folder is to check the folder/file icons. There is currently no way for visually impaired users to check the current status of an upload, or check the status of content being Marked for Offline, since this functionality also relies on the folder/file icons for this information.

    Box should consider a solution to this that would better serve visually impaired and blind users

  7. Allow to only show Favorited items like box on the web

    Allow Box Drive to show All Files or Favorite Files. This will enhance searchability for actively used files first, or All Files for a broader search.

  8. New update with the search bar on the top is inconvenient.

    Definitely prefer the search bar at the bottom closer to the box drive link. It's just easier to use there for fast searching. Less distance the mouse has to travel, and eyes are already focused there.

  9. We urgently need the ability to drag/drop from box.com directly to other web apps.

    We handle a large qty of jpg imagery. We need the ability to drag/drop directly from box to our web app (which has drag/drop capability). At the moment we have to download to desktop then upload to our web app. Massive bandwidth waste.

  10. Add "Sign in with Google" Option to Box Drive

    For users who "Sign in with Google" to the Box Web App, it would also be helpful to have the option for Box Drive.

  11. Search for a file with an "_" in the name won't work in the windows 10 file explorer, need to rename the serxh entry to "-" dash.

    Search for a file with an "" ( ABCCCDD.pdf) in the name won't work in the Windows 10 file explorer, need to rename the search entry to "-" ( ABC-CC-DD.pdf). In this case the ABCCC_DD.pdf file will be found

  15. Bulk attach Box files via email

    Having to add files to my email one at a time is a horrible user experience and a waste of time. Let me add more than one file at a time.

  16. Enable opening of objects with long folder paths

    In Box Sync, you were able to open files regardless of path length - there was sometimes an issue with saving long path files, but not with opening.

    In Box Drive, you cannot open files with long path lengths...which is obviously a problem for any organization that uses a deep folder structure.

    Solely seeking feature parody between box sync and box drive...

  18. Box Drive Tour and Updates

    We have added Box Drive to our VDI image. At each login, a user logs into Box Drive as if it was the first time when logging into a VDI computer. We'd like the option to be able to skip the Box Tour as it doesnt need to repeat every time.

    Additionally, we'd like to disable Box Drive updates as we'd want to do them on a controlled basis on the image.

  19. Possible bug: large directory fails to enter upload queue after uploading file to sibling directory

    I edit videos. When I'm done, I upload the finished video to one Box directory, then upload the project directory to a sibling Box directory. The finished video is 8 to 15 megabytes. The project directory has 2 files totaling about 100 megabytes.

    When I try to upload the project directory, it often just doesn't enter the upload queue after selecting it for upload from the modal upload window. I can do this multiple times and it doesn't upload. After reloading the page, then it will upload like normal.

    This doesn't interrupt my workflow at all, but it might be…

  20. Would love to have files/folders in numbered order when more than 9

    In some of my Box Drive folders I would like to number the sub folders/files for best structure. So the folder names would be something like: 1. Budget, 2. Production plan, 3. ...... 10. Casting, 11. Marketing, and so on.
    But when I have more than 9 folders numbered like this they will not keep in the numbered order. 10 and 11 comes before 2 and so on. This drives me and my coworkers crazy. Is there any way to fix this so that they keep in the numbered order 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11 and so on?
