  2. Previous versions on Folders as opposed to just files

    We would like to be able to see Previous versions on Folder level items as opposed to just individual files. This would help if a folder was overwritten.

  3. 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.

  4. Invited folders cannot be consolidated by collaborator

    I am invited to view individual accounts by an outside company. I would like to be able to move these folders into a “company A” folder so that they are not at the top level of my box drive.

  6. Removing co-owners from view of external clients

    Removing co-owners from view of external clients. Currently all owners & cowners will show under collaborators in BOX folders - meaning external clients can see all who is listed and will email all individuals, including executives. There is a feature to hide this from anyone who is not an owner, but that would mean that managed users/internal staff would also not see these.

  7. Mirror files in one location to another

    Add the ability to mirror files from one location to another. If we have /Investment/Deals/financialReport.xlsx we want to have the option to mirror it to another location such as /Investment/Investor Profiles/Axel Pina/financialreport.xlsx.

    The feature should include the file's versions. If the file is edited in location one, it should be reflected on location 2.

  12. Content Manager should be content-based instead of user-based

    Request from healthcare customer: Instead of Content Manager being organized by user, then showing their folder structures and content within that user, Content Manager should be a direct reflection of the organization's folder structure in a tree view that allows the admin to have an understanding of what is in their tenant, root level folders, and then if you click on an individual folder, you can see the corresponding users and content within.

  13. Restrict more special characters used in naming all uploads

    to have an account or folder level setting/configuration that will allow account admins to enforce MS windows file/folder naming restrictions for all uploads (This includes restriction that following characters aren't allowed: " \ / : | < > * ?. )

    We have a production issue where a partner is dropping folders in Box that do not meet Windows naming convention (they're using *) and that is causing a failure with download from Box.

  14. Shared links auto-expiration exception for specific folders

    Currently, the auto-expiration policy for shared links applies to all folders and files. For shared links on folders, it would be great if we could prevent specific folders from expiring (similar to custom notifications settings on specific folders).
    We have a couple of folders that are synced and shared using public links and shouldn't expire.

  17. Detect empty folders

    Is there a way to detect empty folders in Box (so we can delete them if needed, to simplify a folder tree) ?
    Maybe a tool on a computer can work (like Remove Empty Directories) but it would be great if it was detected by Box itself.

  18. Rewind a folder

    Dropbox had an incredibly useful feature called "rewind", where you could rewind the entire contents of a particular folder back to a certain point in time. This has saved our company on numerous occasions. Box should look into adding this feature since there isn't a way to preview different versions of a folder (only a file). Could save customers from huge headaches of losing files within a folder.

  19. Ability to moderate/pre-validate comments

    Some files in Box have a very wide diffusion (All the company so about 1,5/2K people).

    We would like to moderate the comments.
    The function we want is a folder parameter stating that all comments on any file in this folder would be validated by the owner ou co-owner of the folder.
