Remove File Size Limit
File sizes only continue to grow as video quality improves due to better technology. Our video teams have some files that are 700 GB or more. We are unable to use Box as a backup solution because of the file size limit.

Reduce welcome messages
The ability to turn off welcome messages when a new user logs in. Its very busy for the user to have to click through a bunch of screens showing all the features and then have a another window on the side showing how to do things.

Edit Locked files when Co-Authoring is turned on by the user trying to edit
Our workflow uses both coauthoring and often requires locking files to prevent others from editing while in use. The new coauthoring with Office locks out the user that is trying to edit the file. It would be nice to be able to use both when needed. Now, if a user tries to lock a file to prevent access to it while editing, that same user that locked the file is prevented from editing it. Or maybe add an additional option to edit and lock.

Folder ownership transfer warning message
When transferring ownership of folders, there is no warning message that it will take some time, and no warning that it will make those folders/files inoperable until every folder has been successfully transfered to a new user.
Can we please add a warning that ownership changes to folders will sometimes take days depending on the file size, and that none of the files/folders can be used until the ownership transfer is complete? Not having this warning caused 4 days of downtime for my company.

Remove 10,000 Result Limit on Search API
We currently use a custom application to pull metadata from files. Recently, Box implemented a 10k file limit on the Search API, so our application times out if our results exceed 10k files (this happens a lot). This has forced us to run small reports and piece them together, which is extremely time consuming, cumbersome, and labor intensive. This month alone, we have spent thousands dealing with workarounds for this. If Box would remove this limit, it would make our lives so much easier.

Adding a function to manage tasks in BoxDrive
Since we mainly use BoxDrive, we would like to be able to conduct task management from BoxDrive as well.
Specifically, we would like to be able to check the tasks assigned to us and the tasks we have sent from Box Drive, just like "My Tasks List" and "Tasks Inbox" on Box Web.＜BoxDriveでタスク管理できる機能の追加＞
BoxDriveをメインで利用しているため、タスク管理もBoxDrive上から実施できるようにしてほしい。
具体的には、Box Web上の「My Tasks List」や「Tasks Inbox」のように、自分に割り当てられているタスクや自分が送信したタスクを、Box Driveからも確認できるようにしてほしい。4 votes -
Warn users that annotations will not be added to a Word document as comments
Since Annotations do not get added to Word documents as comments, a warning should be presented to users stating this to avoid any confusion by the user who may be expecting this to happen.

Pause and Resume Uploads or downloads to or from Box
The ability to Pause Downloads + Uploads so that Resource intensive tasks on other software can be carried out on a single computer/device without being slowed down by Box Transferring large amounts of data to/from the device to cloud. The ability to resume Downloads + Uploads after resource intensive tasks are completed.
Not everyone/every company has the budget to have expensive "workhorse" computers or Gigabit internet (not to mention a lot of places dont even have gigabit internet. (Im lucky enough to have access to both where I work and I STILL run into issues from time to time)

Ability to edit the Admin Contact e-mail address
I understand that the 'Admin Contact' is always the e-mail address of the primary admin account and cannot be changed.
We think it would be useful to be able to amend this to an alternate e-mail address (e.g. our Helpdesk) both for support productivity and security.

Ability to set a display image for the group
I want to be able to set any image in the group.
Because it can be difficult to understand the purpose of a group just by the name of the group.
The image should be set to make it easier to understand what the group is.4 votes -
Require additional Multi-Factor Authentication for external collaborators using SSO
We can require 2-FA for external collaborators, but for external collaborators using SSO, Box does not check for whether users pass multi-factor authentication. Please add the ability to require additional multi-factor authentication for external collaborators using SSO.

Ability to specify items that have been moved to the recycle bin when outputting the user activity report.
It seems that the specification is also intended to check the movement of items before and after they are moved to the recycle bin, but I would like you to be able to specify the items that have been moved to the recycle bin when outputting the report.
Currently, it is a specification that can not be searched if it is moved to the trash box when the item name is surely grasped.
Items cannot be specified in the target folder and file items.If it can be specified at the time of reporting even if it has been moved…

Want to have an option to skip the "Save" button
Every time a user finishes writing, the user needs to click Save button. As it is not intuitive and effective so it should be the same UX as iPad's markup (Apple's standard annotation)

Enable option with Shield Access Policy to break hard coded waterfall permissions (e.g. Editor --> View)
Enable option with Shield Access Policy to break hard coded waterfall permissions (e.g. Editor --> View).
E.g. everybody who is not the owner of the content previously was an Editor, but after I overlay a "View Only" Access Policy and Classification Label to the content, then everyone who is not the Owner of the content is View Only.

Enable ability to auto-organize folders (e.g. by Name, Size, Date Updated), rather than manually doing so, similar to my desktop experience
Enable ability to auto-organize folders (e.g. by Name, Size, Date Updated), rather than manually doing so, similar to my desktop experience.
Today, if I create a new folder, it does not automatically fall into the organization structure that I've applied to my folders (e.g. alphabetically). I'd like this to be done automatically.

More detailed error handling with sync errors
We have a user who is on Box Drive that has had several sync errors come up on his Box Drive client over the last week, but when he clicks on the info icon next to the s"9 items with sync errors message" it just gives them a generic error message with no details about which files can't be synced or how long they haven't been synced. I don't know if there's an existing solution for this, but thought I'd mention it here.
