Content Manager - allow all folder transfer for all folders owned by one person to another
Using the superadmin box account, I can transfer ownership by folder. This is nice when I want to transfer 1-2 folders, but when a person leaves the university and that person owns 17 different folders in Box, changing ownership is a very manual task. Keep the change ownership model (under Content Manager), but also have an option that allows me to transfer all folders owned by one person to another - be it 2 folders or 20 or 200. Please.

Provide granular error messages when creating a Chinese external account
Below is one of the error messages we get, and as you can see there are very vague messages. We have to spend time checking a few things before actually finding the reason for the errors. This takes up time which can be better spent on other issues.
Error: External email address <email> belongs to a company which already has Box. You may begin collaborating with the external user.

Ability to login as a Co-Admin to users' accounts
Would like the ability to login as a Co-Admin to users’ accounts, even if those users still have not reset their password, without getting prompted to reset the password for that user. The Primary Admin does not get prompted to reset users’ passwords upon instant login, even if the end user is still required to reset their own password.

Ability to block external invitations for collaboration
We don't want users accepting any external invites to external company shares but we want them to be able to share folders with any company. Basically, we only ever want to be the folder owner.
We have a rule that only we can create the folders and share them out but this sometimes is accidentally overlooked. In addition, Box does not have an option to "block outside collaborator invitations" only an option to completely turn off inbound/outbound sharing or white list domains.

billing
It would be nice to have a role for billing administrator. Where the Billing Administrator would be able to manage subscriptions and credit card information but not the rest of the administrative settings.

Email to Box Change Disappointing
Box decided to remove email to folder options for less than business users, with supposed preservation of existing email to folder set ups. That didn't work. The existing email to folder broke, one of our critical business processes was subsequently broken.
1) I did not receive notice of this change
2) I can't even view what the existing email to folder email address is.
3) It's a poor move to remove a feature an existing customer has access to. Should have been grandfathered in.1 vote -
Ability to disable the download button on the root folder of my main shared folder
I am setting up a folder in my account as an external-facing folder of assets. This will be a public folder that anyone can access with the proper link. Currently, I'm in trial of Box and noticed that the "Download" button appears at the root folder of this shared asset folder. I want people to be able to download assets as they wish, but don't want the download button to be at the root folder. I can honestly see myself getting a lot of feedback from people who accidentally download several TB of assets, instead of the individual files they…

We need a way to administratively remove ALL instances of the per-user installs
We need a way to administratively remove ALL instances of the per-user installs, without resorting to the a VBS login script. In many cases, there are profiles on machines for users that no longer exist, they won’t ever log in to run the per-user removal script.

Improve the help text for “Allow Folder Owners to Extend The Expiration Date”
Feedback on info bubble that shows up in the admin console when setting collaborations to expire:
because we have the box checked to : “Allow Folder Owners to Extend The Expiration Date” – with your info bubble specifically stating “Allowing user to modify settings will apply these settings as a default setting..”
While I’m no linguist, I believe that in this context, default means this setting can be modified, especially as that info bubble continues with “..Not allowing these settings to be modified will enforce these settings on your users.”
A better info bubble could be wanting here

Report on downloaded files across several folders
We would like to generate a report which shows how many files were downloaded across several folders within Box. We have a team that is looking to monitor the usage of certain files which are saved in Box across a number of individual client folders. We can see the downloads of individual reports through Box online, but there are a few hundred folders and that would be too time consuming to go through individually.

Make inactive users their own category vs. remaining as licensed users
Inactive users shouldn't be regarded as licensed users; we need to maintain user history so we never delete users.
