Collaborators Page (Item-Level) - Add Multi-Select for Changing Permissions/Removing Collaborators
Add multi-select to the Item Collaborators page (the Collaborators page at the folder level) to allow for changing permissions, including removing, for multiple collaborators at once.

Reporting - Add EID, tenant name and proper folder name to Outbound collaboration report
Current Outbound collaboration report display outbound collaborator's login and folder ID. Administrator cannot exactly tell who those users are with this limited information.
If EID, Tenant name, and Folder name could be added Administrator could gain more insight on who their managed users are collaborating with and prevent data lost.

Run a report which shows the users last log in date.
Currently, admins can run user statistics report but this does not show an exact date. Admins can run a user activity report, but this will return repeated users log in rather than last login.

Allow FTP/FTPS access by user
We would like the option to allow certain users to upload FTP, but not everyone in the enterprise. Right now, it's either all or nothing when disabling access to FTP.

Disable preview mode when opening Office 365 files
Preview mode is an extra step that is confusing our technically challenged and upper management. Believe it or not, they come across this roadblock (as it is perceived) and get turned off by Box, thereby defaulting back to opening locally.

Ability to set a custom attribute in the Box Capture application
We would like the ability to set an attribute in the Box Capture application to automatically name photos with a desired store name.
For example, rather than automatically name the photo 2016-05-23_001.jpg, we would like to have the option to set the default name via an attribute or prefix that would enable them to more easily identify, search on, and organize them.
As an example they would like the option in the Box Capture application to be able to Set Photo Name Prefix to "Boise" so that the resulting photos would be saved to Box as: Boise2016-05-23001.jpg; Boise…

Clarify in collaborators list which users are active and inactive
Our admin accidentally transferred data from an account to a deactivated account causing collaborators to temporarily lose access.
She pointed out that she could not tell from the list of collaborators which users were deactivated that have something like that would have prevented her from making that mistake.
7 votesThank you for the request! If we hear this from additional users, we will consider this again.

Bulk assign metadata attributes to multiple folders/files at one time
We were a previous heavy user of tags and our users enjoyed the ability to assign tags to multiple files at once in the old UI.
Because they have tens of thousands of users deployed, they often have the same attribute needed to be assigned to many files.
7 votesWhile we recognize the importance of this feature, it is not something we plan to introduce in the near term. We will certainly keep this in mind for future roadmap inclusion and we will keep the status of this request updated to accurately reflect our current position.

Support for .bak files through Box Drive.
Currently .bak files in Box are not exposed in the Box folder in Explorer, and putting a .bak file in your Box folder will result in a "problem file"

True versioning with Office Integrations
Our users are in Office online documents for several hours as they are working on legal documents. What this does is creates hundreds of versions of one document due to the auto-save feature and eliminates the benefits of versioning because the versions saved are not true versions.
It makes it difficult to see what the previous changes were that the other user made. We need true versioning for forensic value for our legal documents.
7 votesWe understand the request, but unfortunately this is not on the near-term roadmap.

Support Embedded Audio/Video when Previewing PowerPoint (.ppt/.pptx) Files
Presentations sometimes have embedded audio/video, and when viewing the file in Box Preview, these embedded media components do not render/play.
This request is to allow this embedding to be rendered and exposed in Box Preview.

Favorite a Note as a non-collaborator
I most often see this when there is a company-wide Note that I can edit but not Favorite because I have not explicitly been collaborated in, which is a confusing experience.

Having the ability to export/import Relay workflows (without roles etc.) from sandbox to production will smooth the onboarding and transition process.
