UI improvement for box mobile site
Please remove the top page of mobile site if we access the site via browser instead of APP. It should directly go to the box web site.
If above is impossible, since “Open in Box App” and “Download for free” are not needed for all customers who are using mobile site without accessing it from App
so that “View on Box Mobile site” should be more emphasized and above two option should be removed or minimalized.4 votes -

Support smartcard authentication for Box Sync and Box Drive.
Please put some more effort into federal customers inquiring about SSO sign in for Box Sync on Macs. The response I got was kind of a punt to our smart cards being the problem but fed agencies have an increasing mandate to login with smartcards. My specific issue may affect many other gov agencies that use Macs and Box Sync. Long story short – smart card certificate passthrough on Windows works as expected and certificates pass through Box Sync app login to the external SSO for USDA e-Authentication but the certificates don’t appear to make it to the external authenticator…

Add "Do not notify" to "Share this folder" dialog box
When inviting users to collaborate in a folder, it would be helpful to add a check box to Not Notify the users.
Larger folders can cause a lot of noise as users are added to a folder.
There are times the collaborators may need to be removed, then re-added to a folder - this generates confusing emails.6 votes -
Slow IO: Switch from SQLite to something faster?
Benchmarks show that BOX drive is 50% to 90% slower than direct filesystem
Boxdrive stores the files in the cache as-is so there is no cpu overhead in encryption or packing, IO should be as fast as native filesystem.Perhapse the SQLite database layer is slowing things down?
If that's the case, replace Drive backend with something faster, like this one:
https://www.iboxdb.com/See, it already has Box in the name :-D

Recommending update for "Understanding Collaborator Permission Levels"
I really appreciate the "Understanding Collaborator Permission Levels" article:
We send users to this page all the time to help them understand Box permissions.
However, one thing that has caused some confusion is that there are security settings at the Enterprise level and at the user and folder level that can impact an Editor's ability to "Invite Collaborators".
I think it would be nice if there was a footnote on that grid that alerted people to the fact that there are security settings that prevent Editors from being able to issue collaboration invitations.
Thank you

Please add Box as an option for

Disable drag/drop function for subfolders when navigating to save a file
When navigating to the relevant subfolder to save a file, it is too easy to accidentally drag/drop a subfolder into a parallel one, on route.
Causing headaches with missing folders and upsetting the folder structure.
If the folder moving function could be frozen while saving files, this would be more secure.8 votes -
Option to prevent Drive from launching on startup by user
We are preparing to deploy Box Drive to our users using the Windows .msi. However we've found that after installation, the Box Drive window opens automatically for every user, every time they log into the computer. For users on a shared system who are not using Box, this means dismissing the window every login.
We'd like an option for Box Drive installation to not have the client launch automatically for all users. Or post-installation, allow the user to tell Box Drive not to open automatically for them. If the Box Drive client needs to run at login for every user,…7 votes -

A method of Direct message or chat to a user.
Besides notifications, we would like to have a way to DM or chat a user about changes to content.
Comments are limited in characters and will also appear to others. This is why we would like a way to message a user directly within Box.

Admin login/impersonation actions viewable
Request Box user reports show any actions that take place when an Admin performs an action when impersonating a user. Right now, all the reports show us is that an Admin impersonated a user but we don't know if that Admin performed any actions as that user.
