  1. When file is selected, add [Open] button next to [Move] and [Copy] buttons to open a file.

    Most users are Previewing a file first before "open & edit" a file, as they don't know right clicking a file or selecting file and clicking [...] (More Options) would show [Open with...] menu.

    In another words, UI is not intuitive for general users as they would think clicking on filename would open (not preview) the file.

  4. Persistent Box Drive login for non-persistent virtual environments

    Persistent Box Drive login for non-persistent virtual environments. Currently, our employees working in Citrix have to login to Box Drive every day, but they do not need to re-login to other Box tools, such as Box for Office.

  5. Allow Excel's Shared Workbook feature to work on Box.

    Microsoft Excel has a feature called Shared Workbook that allows multiple users to edit Excel file simultaneously and still migrate each modifications into each others' Excel files.

    https://support.office.com/en-us/article/about-the-shared-workbook-feature-49b833c0-873b-48d8-8bf2-c1c59a628534

    Box doesn't support this type of feature, but Google and Dropbox supports to notify users on (Office) file modification status to provide similar feature / user experience.

    While we won’t be building in support for the Shared Workbook feature as requested, we will be providing capabilities in the near-future that will provide more visibility when you open a file that is locked in order to prevent file editing conflicts.

  6. Show search result based on user activities.

    Similar to Box Feed, the customer want to show the search results based on the items that are frequently accessed or most relevant based on user activities.

  7. Ability to opt-out from Group collaboration or hide group collaborated folders under All Files.

    If collaborated as Group, the folder appears under All Files whether the user want to see it or not.

    After a while, all of these folders would show up under the user's All Files and would be very hard to manage.

    Thus, ability to opt-out from group collaboration or ability to "hide" folders under All Files is needed.

  10. Ability to type Shared Link URL directly in iOS or iOS EMM App.

    When user has URL for shared link, they need to type it in email or browser, even Box App is there. Thus, would request to have ability in iOS (or Mobile) Apps to allow URLs to be typed directly in Box App.

  11. Navigation bar at the bottom of iPad App is annoying.

    I have accidentally tapped "All Files" icon when we wanted to see "Favorites."

    The ask is for the ability to configure navigation bar to be hidden (hide by default).

  14. m.box.com should use the same timestamp as the webapp.

    Currently, m.box.com uses content_updated and webapp uses updated as the timestamp in list view. To avoid confusion, customer want us to use the same timestamp.

  15. Add "editor" and/or "viewer" permissions in the dropdown menu using the Attach From Box feature.

    Currently when you Attach From Box, we are only able to select WHO we want to share the link with - People in your company or People in the folder. The option of WHO we want to give permission to, could stay, but it would be really nice if another drop down menu could be added in that same window, allowing the user to designate what type of permissions you want to give the employee receiving the link. Editor or Viewer

  17. Versioning on Box Drive

    In the Box Web App, you can view different versions of a single file, see what changes were made and if needed, revert back to previous version of a file. We'd like for this feature to be available on Box Drive as well.

  19. Keep Netsuite record-folder associations when converting records

    Within Netsuite, users are able to take an existing Netsuite record (for example, a Tender record) and convert it into a different type of record (for example, a Project record). If integration users have already associated a Box folder to the Tender record, converting the record essentially removes the Box folder association. When they view the newly-converted Project record in Netsuite, they will be prompted to create a new folder on Box. Ideally, the converted record should be linked to the folder that was created when the record was a Tender record (or allow admins to customize this behavior).
