The ability to set the report name when the Export Report option on any report
Exported reports currently write with a standard name of the report type with date and time but it is challenging when I have reports with almost similar names and the only difference is the date and time. It is confusing to ID a report when I run the same report multiple times.
If users can specify the report name when exporting it, it would make it easier to jump to the report. I know users can rename the report but it would be a lot easier and more efficient if the report is named right from the start.

Mobile App for Box Notes (Standalone)
Allow users to access Box Notes via a standalone app model on iOS / Android to make the overall experience more native.

Image Shared Link Permissions should Match the Box Note's Shared Link Permission
For example, when a Box Note's shared link is set to 'people with the link', all images in the Box Note should also automatically be updated to be 'people with the link' links.
The current issue is that when I set a Box Note's link to 'people with the link' but my company's shared link default is 'people in your company', all the embedded images in the Box Note are still set to 'people in your company', meaning if a non-authenticated user accesses the 'people with the link' Box Note link, they'll see 'insufficient privileges' for all the images in…
49 votesThank you for the feedback. We understand that the current permissions behavior for Box Notes images is not necessarily intuitive, and are actively looking into ways to improve that user experience. We don’t yet have a timeline for delivery, but will update here when its available.

Receive Box browser notifications while using Skype
We would like Box to send Browser notifications in Skype whenever there is a comment directed to you (Facebook does it through Chrome).
We want to be able to keep a conversation in Box (which is possible now with comments) AND easily notify the participants that are not in Box or have not checked email, but may be in Skype.

Drag and drop to a linked folder
If the link that's saved in a folder is another Box folder, be able to drag and drop a file onto that link and have it moved to the linked folder.
0 votesThis sounds a bit tricky from an engineering perspective. We will reconsider this with additional customer demand.

Thank you for this suggestion! This is unlikely an integration Box will build.
Fujitsu can call our APIs and build this into their app.

Subfolder Sync: Don't Sync the Files Located in the Parent Folder Path
One of the nuances of Box Sync 4.X's 'subfolder sync' feature is that files that are located in the folders of the parent path for the synced subfolder are also synced, which creates a weird, and unexpected, experience for end users.
Reference: https://community.box.com/t5/Box-Sync/How-Do-I-Sync-Subfolders-In-Box-Sync-4-0/ta-p/116
REQUEST: Fix this behavior so that even when only a subfolder is marked for 'syncing', none of the files in the parent folders are also inadvertently synced, and instead only sync the parent folders to keep the path in tact.

Inactive State: Do Not Hide Owned Folders for Managed User Collaborators (still hide for External Collaborators)
Currently the 'Inactive' User Status not only prevents the user from accessing their account, it also hides ALL owned folders for all collaborators.
Meaning if John Smith is changed to 'Inactive', all of the collaborators that are in his owned folders will no longer see those folders in their accounts.
REQUEST: Change this status to only prevent the user from accessing their account, while keeping their owned content visible for Managed User collaborators (keeping today's behavior of hiding for External Collaborators).
18 votesWe are currently re-designing our managed users page for performance and usability updates which will be released at the end of this year. We will revisit newer features to user management after we release our new UI. In the meantime, please add your use cases in the comments so we can have this feedback when we decide to pick this up.

Change wording of a shared file to a more specific title other than "Shared"
When a Shared Link is created, the file bar in the Web App shows the term "Shared".
It would be beneficial if this showed the specific nature of the shared link, for example instead of "Shared" the "Share" button would change to "In Your Company", "In This Folder", "Everyone".
2 votesThis is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

Ability to lock files from within application once they're open
Our users would like the ability to lock a file once they have already opened a file in Box Edit/Box Drive/Box for Office.
They would like the ability to do this within the document without having to navigate back to the webapp or sync to lock the file.
9 votesBox for Office automatically locks a file when it’s being worked on. We don’t currently have plans to do this or Box Edit.

The User Filter is built to only look at the list of current, managed users, so it would be quite difficult to include deleted users.
