  4. 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.

  5. 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.

  6. Checkbox default values on account deletion and content transfer process

    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.

  7. 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.

  8. 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.

  9. 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

  10. Disable ability to use a secondary password

    We'd like the ability to disable the use of a secondary password at both the account level and user level.

    Main risk for us is that users can map a shared drive and use FTP with a secondary password - which would allow WU data outside of WU managed PCs all while bypassing SSO.

  11. Logging in with Google Account on Android

    Once you allow Box to login using your Google Account credentials on your computer, you should be able to login using those same Google Account credentials using 'Company credentials' at the login screen on your Android mobile device. This currently is not the case, but users are able to do this on their iPhones.

    While this is a very understandable request, most customers are using a third-party eDiscovery tool and therefore we’d like to focus on higher and broader impact features.

  13. 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.

  14. Upload Excel files on iPad to Box

    Would really benefit from being able to upload Excel files on iPad to Box for when doing remote work.

    Thank you for your feedback! You should be able to upload from the Office apps. Otherwise, this is an iOS limitation.

  17. Lite Users added to Groups when rolled in as a managed user

    When lite users are rolled in, the admins would like to have the ability to add users to groups within the WebApp UI, instead of having to add users to groups 'AFTER' they are rolled in

  18. Role configuration on group sharing

    In Enterprise setting -> Content & Sharing -> Collaborating on Content Tab, you can configure which role to enable and the permission those roles gets. This setting only applies to individual collaborator but not Group. You can disable Co-owner in that setting but still see it available when doing folder sharing with group.

    We assume that the setting above is a global thing and applies to both individual collaborators and groups, so we find it a little confusing.

    Can you put an extra option like "Apply the same role setting to group" in "Collaborating on Content" tab to better demarcate…

  19. Visually denote already shared folders as in Shared Folders interface for Group Admins.

    When adding folders to groups in new interface, a list of all folders is shown including folders that have already been added. This is confusing and can cause additional workflow, having to go back and forth to see what has and hasn't been added.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the experience to manage users before we add enhancements to the group management process.

  20. Have an enterprise-facing/admin notice that external collaborators have certain single-file upload limits (250 mb, 2 GB, 5 GB, etc.)

    Currently, the responsibility lies on the external collaborator (they receive a message to upgrade their account), but admin would like a way to know if external collaborators have these limits
