  1. Support opening apps from App Gallery in a new tab or window.

    With 141 pages of apps in the marketplace, if I page through and find an app that I want more detail on, I click the app link (I cannot open this in another tab or window).

    This takes me to a page with more detail on the app. However if I go back to the marketplace, it takes me back to page 1. I then have to page through scores of views just to get back to where I left off.

  2. CAPTCHA localization

    When logging into Box via OAuth, a user may be presented with a CAPTCHA challenge. This CAPTCHA challenge is not localized, i.e., it may be presented in a language that does not match the Box customer's account language.

  3. 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.

  4. Send a notification sent to user's when their password is about to expire.

    We use read only sync as a primary use case. Because users do not log into the webapp, they are not aware when their password expires and files are not being synced.

    Thank you for this request!

    We will review this with additional demand.

  5. Enterprise settings should trump individual folder settings

    My only recommendation is that Enterprise Settings should override individual setting and not the other way around. What if the Enterprise Site Admin account was compromised?

    Thank you for submitting this suggestion.

    We’re unlikely to look into changing our settings restriction model without additional customers requesting such an investigation. We will monitor this for additional feedback.

  7. Allow users to set a.box.com as their default engagement method to Box through a web browser.

    The ability for a user to go to box.com or cloud.box.com or domain.box.com and set the accessible version of Box as default for a specific user or group of users.

    This would allow users with unique needs such as visual impairments to navigate to their preference without first making a conscious decision to head to a.box.com or through box.com

  8. Allow users to adjust line spacing between items shown in list view

    In the new Box UI, some users are asking for the ability to adjust the spacing between items shown in list view (some users want to widen this while others want to cram things closer together)

    We do plan to offer an Accessibility Mode where users can set font to be larger and contrast to be higher, but we don’t plan to allow complete customization of spacing

  9. Change the default message in text Box when inviting new collaborator to a folder

    Would like to be able to change the default text in this section to another default text. Currently, you can manually edit this section every time you add a new user to a folder. We want to be able to change what populates this section by default.

    We are unlikely to build a setting to enable changes to this default. However, if there is a better default message that may work for all of our customers, we are happy to reconsider.

  10. Ability to print Box Notes from Box on iOS

    We would like the ability to print a Box Note from their mobile device.

    We have this capability in Box Notes on desktop but not on the mobile application.

  11. Add "expand all" flag for annotations

    Currently, all point/comment annotations are collapsed by default.

    If a user leaves many annotations on a multi page document, this can lead to some point annotations being missed.

    There should be an expand all option to mitigate this.

  15. Allow Save to PDF from Office to point to Box share.

    Users currently use the "Save as Adobe PDF" which I believe is a plugin for Office. It generates a popup window for "Acrobat PDFMaker" which uses the standard Windows Explorer.

    As a result, users need to save to local drive first, then upload to Box. They'd like to save a PDF directly to Box.

  16. Ability to change File extension in 'save as' for Office on premise integration

    When saving a file in Office on prem, we would like to have the ability to change the file extension for docx to pdf.

    We have a number of legal processes where e have to be able to create pdfs. At the moment, we have to save the file to the desktop as a pdf and then re-upload to Box.

    On account deletion and content transfer process, currently, the default value is checked off for "Notify user" checkbox. We would like to be able to toggle the default value to unchecked checkboxes.

  18. New User-Level Field: "User Description" (Free Text)

    Other applications (like Slack) have a user-level free text field (similar to a User Description / Information field) where admins or users can enter free text to describe the user.

    This is not currently planned. We will revisit this with additional use case data and customer requests.

  19. 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.

  20. Bring back the "Login with SSO" link on the login page

    User from universities have 2 email addresses, one they are not always aware of. They are not being re-directed to the SSO login page when they enter the alias instead of the email address on their box account causing confusion. Previously, they would have been redirected
