  1. Display email address of sender for files uploaded through email to folder

    When using email to folder in Box, the "user" shows whatever name another company set up for that external email address. An example is service@ringcentral.com - the uploader shows as "Fax in Rehabco 2" which means nothing to us - it is apparently something set up by another Box company. It should display the actual email address instead.

  2. Change the Box Logo

    A box logo can’t be made of a cute font.
    It should be boxy. Sharp angles. Makes sense.

    This is my interpretation to the box;

  3. Provide Tutorials on Login Page

    It would be nice to provide links to tutorials or resources on the login page for non-managed users. The biggest hurdle to using Box with non-managed users is their frustration with login process and getting a hang of the product. Having easy access to basic tutorials would be beneficial to non-managed users and those attempting to help the non-managed users.

  4. When using the Send Shared Link feature, non-URLs in the Message are getting caught as URLs

    It is unclear which part of the message got caught in the filtering.
    For example we A.COMPANY get's caught as a URL since .com is recognized as a top level domain. This is very confusing to the user and would be better if there was a message that shows which string was marked as invalid.

    -Display the number of search results hits
    -Save search results (query and results)
    -Run search again and show differences since the last search (this is helpful to see what's been added or removed since the last time the search was run)
    Include all filte

  7. Shared Link Default Setting

    I propose that the default Shared Link setting be the strictest available setting "People in this Folder" rather than "People with the Link". In my opinion, the default setting should be the more confidential / private one and force the user to opt to share the link with outside parties. In my experience, many users have not understood to update that setting.

  8. Can we shut off GSuite document edit options

    We want to make sure our users are not able to see options for GSuite within our enterprise. We only want Microsoft application options to appear in the drop down for editing documents. We don't want users using Gsuite so having the option isn't a good user experience for us. The less options we have in the drop down the better. It should be a on/off option at the enterprise level for enabling GSuite apps or connectors to GSuite.

  9. Improve instructions for selecting nonadjacent items in file list

    Improve the keyboard shortcut instructions for selecting nonadjacent items in the file list [e.g., under https://app.box.com/folder/]. From these instructions: https://community.box.com/t5/Migrating-and-Previewing-Content/Using-Keyboard-Shortcuts-for-Box/ta-p/25945
    it is not clear and nonobvious that one has to navigate with the up and down arrows to land on the next file that you want to select, then you can press shift-x (which is a command that I've NEVER seen in a user interface).
    Please improve your keyboard shortcuts article to be more explicit.

  12. When will Versioning be available in the Box Content Explorer ?

    We are using the Box UI Elements, Content Explorer javascript library. It seems Versioning of uploaded documents is not yet supported. I discussed this with the Box team via Git Hub, issue #199, and they suggested that I request for this feature at this site.

    When will this feature be available ?

  15. Fix Favorites sort order between side bar and main view for Japanese file names

    Currently the Favorite sort order is not the same between sidebar and favorite view.

    It appears that on Favorite view, items are sorted in order of UTF-8 code point (when you sort by name) whereas in sidebar, items are sorted in a similar way as Window explorer.

  16. Hide admins/co-admins and owners/co-owners from collaborators

    We would like a way to hide owners/co-owners, or potentially admins/co-admins, from the default view of collaborators on the right side preview panel.

    We have a closed folder structure where admins & co-admins own content. Due to this. anytime a user is pre-viewing content in the webapp, the quick list of collaborators on the right hand panel shows the admins and doesn’t show other editors in the folder. This makes it difficult for them to quickly assess who is part of the folder without clicking into the collaborator view, since it always shows the admins/co-admins (owners/co-owners) by default. They lose…

  18. Reduce number of clicks to create Shared Link

    Regarding the new simplified sharing experience: The drop down to get a link to share has disappeared and now, anytime I want to get a link to share that will work for anyone with the link I have click four times 1) CLICK: Share This Folder, 2) Click to get access to link options, 3) Click to select must useful link type, and 4) click to copy the link.
