check status of options in the admin console
We can't check the area of Zones option now, Box should be better to check status of options in the admin console. That's not only Zones.
We heard so from my customers.1 vote -
Allow force download from web for red flagged files.
On occasion, a discrepancy may be found between your local copy and the one on the web. I recommend adding the ability to override your local copy with the web version as a Box drive local option.

Box for Schools - address school related use cases
Creating a Box for School kind of offering to address certain specific use cases for School could open up new market and get kids to get familiar with Box before they enter active life.
Different use cases should be easy to support such class assignment, class user groups, GSuite integration to enable access to GSheet capabilities...1 vote -
.ics (Outlook invite) Preview
Can we please previous .ics (Outlook calendar invite) files in some way through Box? We have had so many use cases where we keep a .ics file on Box and share out a link to it so employees can download it any add it to their calendar.
Unfortunately, currently, when they open that shared link it says "error" and our employees think it doesn't work and it's not there. I know we are familiar with Box and know to just download it because it is there, but less confident users see this as a huge barrier.

Multiple Pages for Filtered Notifications
In the Web App under Notifications the filtered views (anything other than All Messages) is limited to 50 items, and you do not have the option to go to the next page.
For example our HR department set Tasks for each employee to review their Job Description. They were hoping to be able to do away with using a spreadsheet to track emails by seeing who was left under their Sent Tasks. But they are still using the spreadsheet and manual reminders since they weren't able to access more than 50 assigned tasks to send reminder emails.

sort
We can sort the items in a folder by size but the column of size does not show the size if the items are subfolders; instead it shows the number of files. Suggest to make it consistent or add a new column (switchable between showing "Size" or "Number of items").

Make files preview in mobile without user registration like Dropbox
Make files preview on mobile Box, without user registration. Currently, customers need to download the box app just to view any file I send as shared link. This is not an issue with Dropbox. With the majority of people using their mobile phones this would be a good idea, do you agree?

Wait until Save Changes before enabling email uploads
When ticking ‘box’ to create email for folder upload (https://community.box.com/t5/Upload-and-Download-Files-and/Upload-to-Box-Through-Email/ta-p/50552), do not update change automatically, wait until you hit the “Save Changes” button. We have had users tick this box unintentionally and mess up a complicated workflow.

Want to be able to see the previous version file sizes without having to download the previous files.
1 voteInteresting feature request! However, we’re not able to prioritize it at this time due to competing priorities.

Allow use of punctuation symbols in file and folder names
Our users cannot use punctuation symbols when naming folders/files and it’s causing their end users problems. Sometimes using more than one space between words is causing them problems.
They use Box exclusively through the webapp, so it doesn’t seem that this is a desktop related issue or that it’s a Sync related issue. I have heard of some limitations with Windows via the desktop when it comes to folder/file names syncing over.

Search Skill card metadata from Box Drive
Searching for skills-enabled content, a video for example, in the webapp returns results from the various skill cards such as the transcript and keywords and this is part of what makes skills so valuable and powerful. The same search from Box Drive returns nothing based on skill metadata however so users would instead have to try and search based on other information, such as the filename, etc. As skills becomes more prevalent, the search behavior should be more consistent across interfaces if/when possible.

On the browser interface, the option to Sync and Download should be the top two options in the menu
On the browser interface, the option to Sync a file or folder is in the secondary, “More Options” section of the fly-out menu. Shouldn’t "Sync" and "Download" be the top two options on the fly-out menu? That’s what most of us want to do when we use the browser interface.
1 voteThanks for the feedback! While we’re always looking for ways to improve usability on the site, we don’t plan to make this change since we’re moving toward the ‘Mark for Offline’ feature with the newer Box Drive desktop app as the long-term replacement for the ‘syncing’ features of Box Sync.
If you haven’t checked out Box Drive, I recommend downloading it and trying it out, especially now that it allows you to view all of your Box folders and files directly within Windows Explorer / macOS Finder on your desktop, and you can simply right-click a folder and choose ‘make available offline’ right from your desktop too.
