There needs to be more than one way to organize files. Most of us are used to having options for organizing our files on our desktops, so only being allowed "collections" has a negative impact on productivity. I view Box as a dump of my files, and dread having to find anything.

Collections option does not solve the need for multi-level custom folder structure that would be a big welcom for all useres I suppose.

It's a definite need, and my Box is now so unorganized that I can't find any information without searching on the search bar.

Yes, I agree. This would be a good idea. File names are not always clear and it would be practical to categorize folders.

This would be extremely helpful. I would call them folder "Nicknames" and then users could identify them. We have this exact same issue and it is a fundamental problem that should be addressed.

We need some way to organize shared folders, I have at least 5 folders with the same name the only way to find the one I am looking for is to open each one. We either need to be able to move them into folders, change the name, or add some sort of tag at least, none of these can be done if I do not have permission to the folder. These changes do not need to be shared with others on the folder just specific to my account.
