  2. Admin Messaging to all Users

    Currently, there is no way to send a mass message to all users in an enterprise. It will be great to be able to send a message about an upcoming maintenance or upcoming feature users can look forward to or certain changes that may be coming directly from Box.

    I needed to send a message to our users a few weeks ago when we needed to disable SSO in order to perform some maintenance with Recommend and I had no options. I used a Box group we add all our users to, but there is no HTML formatting so the…

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on making foundational updates to the Users & Groups page to make managing users easier at scale.

  3. Provide Shared Links Details report on a user / groups level

    Instead of running it for the entire enterprise, we want it segmented by user or group

    Happy to review. Can you provide more clarity on the use case/reason here? Are you hitting a scale issue, or is there some data you’d like added to the report?

  4. Upload/Change User Avatars (Profile Pictures) from Managed Users Page in Admin Console

    Currently user avatars (profile pictures) can only be added, removed, or changed from an individual user's account settings and these avatars are not editable whatsoever via the admin console. Meaning for an admin to add one on behalf of a user or to remove one, they must use instant log in (which not many co-admins have).

    When clicking to edit a user from the Admin Console -> Managed Users page, options to manage the user's avatar should be presented (just like we have for editing their name, email, etc.).

    This proposed enhancement to email notifications and to custom branding is a reasonable idea, but an area that we are unlikely to invest in this year.

  9. "Failed logins" on Enterprise Settings should clear the number of failed login when a user logins successfully

    Currently, the number of failed login piles up even after a user logins successfully. It's strange, so it should be cleared when a user logins successfully.

    This is a reasonable request, however we do not have enough user demand to prioritize this feature.

  10. 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.

  11. Aliases - Better Email Alias Management from Managed Users Page

    Currently, email aliases for users are poorly exposed in the Users page of the Admin Console and we also provide poor alias management functions on the users tab too.

    Key Gaps:
    1. No ability to promote an alias to be primary directly from the Managed Users page (must use instant log in - which not all co-admins have - in order to make this change)
    2. No ability to remove an alias from the Managed Users page

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We are currently focusing on improving the performance and user interface to manage users before we add enhancements to manage email aliases.

  12. Usage stats per region of the world (Global stats)

    We have global offices / teams dispersed globally. Admin teams currently have no way to monitor Box usage broken down by these teams (workaround suggestion is to create groups by office, but lots of admin overhead).

    Suggestion is to use localization settings, IP address, or Box regional setting and categorize by country or region (Europe, APAC, LATAM, NATAM, etc.) to allow admins to report on usage stats by global region. (heat map of the world, etc.) Current reports with an additional column/filter.

  13. Ability to create a custom group name that will be displayed on the collaborator list without affecting the SSO integration

    Currently, groups only have names unlike user accounts that have names and aliases. However, since we have SSO groups enabled, we have found that is impossible to rename groups without causing issues.

    Because of SSO groups, we had to have a specific naming convention for our groups so we can know which groups to send to Box. All our group names begin with COMPANYBOXPD and then the corresponding team name. Since these groups are shown as collaborators, it will be nice to be able to edit the group to display a user friendly group rather than the technical…

    Thank you for the submission! This is a reasonable request. However, we will need to hear from additional customers before prioritizing this request.

  14. The ability to customise width of columns

    Without this ability, some file names aren't displayed fully in the Content Manager.

  16. Auto Provisioning for Japanese name (lastname->firstname)

    When Auto Provisioning option is enabled, the user's name is set "firstname lastname", but we hope to have "lastname firstname".

    Currently, Japanese users set firstname information to "lastname" and lastname information to "firstname" in SAML Response.

    Firstname and Lastname should be separated like in Salesforce.

    Thanks for filling this. Because there is a workaround (though not ideal) to this issue, we are not likely to prioritize this request.

  17. Rolling content from deprovisioned users

    There needs to be an option to specify a particular user for all deleted users' content to be rolled in to. This could be capped so that LFO doesn't happen, or maybe by number of users in the enterprise.

    The other option is for "Inactive" users' content to still be accessible, and the seat no longer counting in the enterprise.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. We will revisit as we receive more demand from customers for this feature

  19. Support Multi-Select for Granting Folder Access to Groups (via Folder Picker on Groups Page of Admin Console)

    Admins must currently add folders to Groups in the Admin Console on a one-by-one basis, so if an admin has 10 folders to add, that's a lot of clicks.

    You could simplify this process by supporting multi-select in the folder picker that's provided when editing a Group from the Admin Console.

    This suggestion is not under consideration for the current or future roadmap. However, we’d like more clarity and details from the requester about this suggestion to better understand the problem and where exactly in the Admin Console this sorting is needed.
