    This is a great idea! Unfortunately we aren’t able to prioritize this ask at this time due to other competing priorities.

  2. Improve Installer UX: Update Branding + Tell User What to Do

    The Box Edit installer has 2 key issues today:

    1. It is old Box branding
    2. It doesn't actually tell the user what they need to do (which is to double-click the icon)

    Many other modern installers, including the Box Sync installer, at least have an arrow or additional guidance telling the user to 'drag here' or 'double click to start the installation'. Box Edit doesn't have either of these, which means users end up confused about what they actually need to do.

    REQUEST: On the Edit installer, tell the user what to do. Aka add text that says "Double click this…

  3. Desktop Web App & 3rd Party Apps: Split this setting and have one titled [Web Browsing]

    After testing the Device Trust setting Desktop Web App & 3rd Party Apps for the purpose of Box Notes and Box for Office, I have noticed that when we enable this, it closes the door on Box web browser usage from any non-company machine (since it doesn't meet the Device Trust setting.) Currently we find it very useful and it is required for us to be able to use Box from non-company machines via web browsers.

    It would be excellent if Box Support could separate Device Trust in more depth, specifically this setting Desktop Web App & 3rd Party Apps

  4. Allow for easier re-selection of files in New UI upload widget

    In the upload widget, the user is prompted to select a file to upload on the first screen and then fill in additional information on the second page.

    If the user wants to reselect the upload file, they need to press the "cancel" button to return to the first page again. Allowing re-selection of without having to do this would reduce user frustration

    We are not prioritizing this feature for development. We are happy to reconsider with additional demand.

  5. Adobe Sign in Integration should be Opt in, not opt out

    We have 150,000 accounts in our instance, of which only a handful might have Adobe Sign licenses. I need to turn it off for everyone and allow those with the licenses to turn it on.

  6. Suffix Match on titles (a form of Wildcard Search)

    We need this feature for legal eDiscovery purposes.

    We were doing some file name search testing, and we found some odd results based on our filename searches.

    If the filename was alphaomega and we tried searching for omega the search does not pull up any results, but searching alpha does pull up the alphaomega files.

    Thank you for the feedback. We have noted this feature request and understand the value of this feature. Unfortunately, it is not on the current roadmap.

  7. Autocomplete & search for Tags should not be case sensitive

    Right now, Tags are case sensitive. Meaning if you have a tag like "Olive", and you start typing a search for "o", the "Olive" tag won't show up.

    This is currently not on the roadmap as we have not heard this request from many other customers.

    We will consider it in the future if there is increased customer demand.

  9. Ability to watermark audio

    We currently use a 3rd party tool called Studio CDN, a watermarking media delivery company, which can apply and detect watermarks on audio files that are shared.

    However, we would like to use Box instead so that we can securely consolidate all of our audio content on Box.

  10. Permissions requirements to apply retention Governance

    The "view users content" setting is needed to apply retention policies to content that you don't personally have access to.

    This setting is quite restrictive given that only one person in our company has "view users content" access.

    It seems like there should be an additional setting or way to apply retention to users content without relying on this checkbox

  11. External User Box Access Workflow

    We'd like a modification to the external user workflow and change the text of "Not a part of <Company Name> Company"

    Many external users click the "Part of <Company Name>" button as they assume incorrectly this is the proper path as they are doing business with the Company.

    There is room for improvement on either the current text, addition of clarifying text, or a modified workflow.

  12. Add 'Released Holds' Section to Legal Holds UI

    Currently, there's no way (aside from digging through Box events) to look at Legal Hold policies that have been 'released'.

    This means that once a user clicks 'Release' on a hold, there's no UI for that hold anymore whatsoever.

    Digging through unique events in Usage Logs is not an answer to 'show me the holds that we've released - I want to take a quick look at the holds the team has been releasing recently'.

    REQUEST: Add a 'Released Holds' section to the bottom of the existing Legal Holds UI in the Admin Console.

    Thank you for your suggestion.

    We explored this during our initial investigations, and our customers told us they did not want record of prior holds in this view, thus potentially implicating them in still being responsible for the litigation.

    This is not planned work but may be reconsidered if there is a ton of customer feedback to the contrary.

  13. Box Edit Uninstaller

    We like a standard un-installer for Box Edit (even if only the for the EXE version.) We are having to use the PowerShell un-installer requiring admin right assistance multiple times a week and it is not sustainable.

    Only AV checks and FW checks will not work on Windows Server today. This is because the info we use to evaluate is not available on Servers (it is available on Windows Workstations).

    This enhancement is not planned for now, but we will investigate what will be required to support Windows Server in the future.

    This is currently not planned, but we will consider with additional customer demand.

  16. Classification Reporting - Add Details of Classification Changes to Usage Logs

    Currently, when a file's Classification level is changed, a 'Metadata -> Edited Attributes' event is generated in Usage Logs. However, this event entry doesn't say WHAT changed (aka, it could be a Classification change, it could be any other metadata change - the admin can't tell).

    REQUEST: Add information to the 'Details' column of Usage Logs (and the Excel export / API event stream) about what Classification attributes (aka tell the admin what the Classification WAS, and what it is NOW).

  17. Disable Folder Rename capability

    I would like to have a Folder properties setting to disable Folder Rename (even for Editors).

    I was testing setting up departmental folders to replicate our group file server. I want all members of the department to be able to add/remove/delete files in their folder. I was able to do that by assigning them the editor role, but that allows them to change the root level folder name. Is there a way to prevent that?

    For instance, I create folders for accounting, finance, etc. I want those folders to keep the names I set and I do not want the…

  19. Customize 'Get Training' Link in '?' Menu

    Currently the '?' menu in the webapp header includes a few links, including the following blurb: "Need more help? Visit our Help Center or Get Training"

    'Help Center' by default links to the Box Community site (community.box.com), but we allow admins to override this link via the 'Support Site URL' field in Admin Console -> Enterprise Settings -> Custom Setup.

    'Get Training' is also linked in the blurb above (linking to training.box.com), but we currently do NOT allow admins to customize this URL.

    This is problematic for some customers (especially large customers) that have fully staffed internal training teams that…

    This is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

  20. Provide versions of Box Edit ahead of time for testing purposes

    We would like to get new updates of Box Edit to test before it becomes generally available. We would also like the ability to control auto update and possibly block this feature.
