Would like a.box.com to not require individuals who want to access public folders to have a box account.

move box sync deleted items to local trash
Ask: When content is deleted from local Box Sync folder, content is moved to local user's trash folder.
Reason: This is good if you ever delete content from box sync that has not yet been saved to Box's servers yet. It would at least end up in the local trash for recovery.4 votes -
Enable account upgrades without needing to have 3 members
I currently have a Personal Pro account, and I'd like to upgrade to get more storage. It seems, however, that all upgrade options involve at least 3 users. I am but one. As much as I'd like to clone myself sometimes, it's just not practical (or, frankly, ethical...but that's another story).
Can we make a way to upgrade a 1-person account without having to pay for two unnecessary users?
If not, you're essentially throwing up a middle finger to solo practitioners, which isn't very nice.

Custom Applications Scroll
At IBM we have a large number of JWT applications currently whitelisted and we receive new requests for them daily. When we want to whitelist a new application, we have to click through 9 pages of Custom Applications listed in the admin console to Enable the App Authorization.
This makes approving 4 applications a 30 minute process because each arrow click to the nexxt page takes up to a minute to load.
Instead of having arrows to flip between the pages of existing JWT apps, I recommend a scroll bar so we can quickly scroll to the bottom of the…

Action Failed: Unsupported Name - no file path shown in tool tip
For Box Drive errors where 'Action Failed: Unsupported Name' - the tool tip on hovering over the filename shows 'Unsupported Name on OS’, instead of the full file path (such as with 'Rename File Failed: Name Is Already Taken').

4. Creating timelines (nice to have)

NetSuite integrations security enhancement.
Allow the creation of a folder in Box that is secured by box, but the record is attached to the transaction. For example, under bill payments adding a box folder that can hold the contract for that specific payment. Contracts have more confidential information that needs to be secured. Since security in NetSuite is best used as a group, not all who can see if a payment was made, should see the details of the contract. Therefore the select folder should allow more restrictive security, managed by box.

Support for "custom domains" (not just sub-domains).
Add support for custom domains (not just sub-domains). We already use the sub-domain, but we find that box.com is blocked by counter parties, for security/DLP reasons
Having this ability would more easily allow other firms to white list our site without opening up ever Box account under the sun.

“Fit to window” on preview page
When I preview a presentation or some document that is oriented landscape or is just wide, the document is cut off on the right-hand side by the activity stream window and menu system. Preview should always “fit to window” so I can see the whole document.

"Scopes enabled by request" in the app authorization page
Would like the "scopes enabled by request" (https://developer.box.com/docs/scopes#section-scopes-enabled-by-request) which have been enabled on their app to be listed in the app authorization or in the configuration page for their app in the dev console.

Box Drive Notification
It would be nice to have a feature we can use to notify end users of the restriction to upload files at the root level in Box Drive. Right now we are depending on sync errors which can be easily dismissed by non technical users and I believe if a message was clearly displayed of the restriction It would cause less confusion and create a better user experience.

it would be great to be able to extract a list of documents/location for the content structure to support migration, organization and due diligence!

We would like the ability to create a file in Box from our cloud applications rather than the local applications.
As you can change the default application a document type can be opened with, we would like that ability with creating files as well.
At the moment, creating a file within the WebApp defaults to Box Tools and cannot be changed.

alphabetical
My company Box users are having a hard time organizing files/folders shared with them. It means, if there are 100 files/folders shared with an user, all the shared files/folders show in the user's Box account. Which interferes with the user's personal files/folders which the user would like to access more frequently without having to browse through a list of shared files/folders. That being said, it would be nice to be able to move the shared content into a shared folder or being able to organize the folders based on our own convinience.

billing
It would be nice to have a role for billing administrator. Where the Billing Administrator would be able to manage subscriptions and credit card information but not the rest of the administrative settings.

Seamless Sign On - Box Drive
Like OneDrive, we want the ability for the box drive client to seamlessly sign into box without any user integration at login. This will benefit;
- VDI users
- Hot desk users
- Students (e.g. lab machines)
- First time logon for staff allocated devicesWe understand this won't work for everybody but we to SSO to box via Azure AD and all of our 7,500 managed devices are joined to both on-premises AD and Azure AD. In fact we're starting have a slow migration to pure Azure AD.
This has stopped any large scale rollout and we have seen…

When selecting text in a Box Note, you get the option to make a comment related to that selection. We want the ability to @mention there.
You can @mention someone someone in a sidebar comment on a Box Note. You can select text in a Box Note and make a comment related to that selection. But you cannot @mention someone in a comment related to a text selection.
We have a user group that uses Workfront for that specific functionality but would shift that workflow to Box if this functionality was added.

Better handling of situation when another application creates a folder at the Box Drive folder path
Would like to see a few changes to Box:
1) A better error message
2) A possibility to continue regardless of the error
