Support Emojis in file names
Box currently does not support Emojis in filenames, which means it won't sync if I drag and drop a file from my desktop into Box Drive. It would be great if Box would support the same characters in file names as current OSes

Quarantine Folder Customization
We'd like additional customizations for quarantine files including search, notifications, and outreach to folder owners.
Is there a way to notify the folder owner and co-owner if an item is quarantined? We don’t see anything in the Admin Console to set that.
Alternatively, is there a way to customize the quarantine email to add a contact instead of “your administrator”?

Email Upload Confirmation Failure reason
For Email Uploading to a folder, it would be nice if the confirmation email received by the sender would specify the reason for it failing so a ticket doesn't to be submitted to support for answer to that.

Box new account
Here is an idea to make Box new accounts on-boarding more user friendly.
My account team was not clear on any ETA when to expect the account to become active.
Not a single email was sent what to expect and at what time. After 2 weeks the purchased licenses were assigned to another account. After that I was told to submit a ticket to support to resolve the problem created during the initial provisioning of the account.
I have to say that's not the level of customer service I was expecting from Box.com1 vote -
Better functionality for viewing photo libraries
We have folders of photos - Box is not great either in browser or in Box Drive to review this. In Box Drive, i guess it struggles to cache all the thumbnails fast enough so it is effectively unusable

Read Enterprise Settings using API
Is there a way to read Enterprise Settings using API? That would be much beneficial where the Admin can choose certain settings like Storage and there wont be a necessity to change the Code every time the Admin wants to change the settings. The API can read the existing settings and manage users based on those configurations. Currently, the application that manages Box accounts has to store those locally and every time there is a change in those settings, that calls for a Change management and code deployment.

Synchronize changes between Box Edit and Box Drive for Excel
The file which is referred from external, if we edit , save download and upload, we need to save original Excel from Box Edit. The customer does not want to open Edit only for this.
For example, there are two excel ExcelA and ExcelB. Excel B is referring the data from ExcelA.
ExcelA was created via Box Drive and ExcelB was from Box Edit.
If Excel A was modified, then open ExcelB, but the modification is not reflected to ExcelB.

Change the background color when selecting collaborator in @mention function
We would like to request to change the background color when selecting collaborator in @mention function
When searching for collaborators using @mention function and when the target collaborator has been selected, the background color becomes "light grey" and it is hard to tell if it is already selected.

Block end user password reset for SSO users
In our environment, we enforce SSO, however users can still go into their user settings to reset their password and change the password. My understanding is that this password is only usable for FTP access, but it is confusing for users and we do not use the FTP functionality. Block end user password reset for SSO users

Unify nomenclature for permission levels between mobile and web clients
We've noticed that the same feature is called differently in Desktop-browser, iOS app and Android app
Specifically the link type 'Invited people only' is called 'People in this folder' in iOS (which I actually like better) and 'People in this file and folder' in Android
Can you pass this feedback onto the product team? I don't think it makes sense to be inconsistent between the platforms

Add Description field in Windows Explorer
It would be a great feature if Box Drive could be integrated so that the "Description" meta field on the Box website is populated into the actual Description field when files are viewed on Box Drive locally on a desktop (i.e. adding the "Description" column to the view in Windows Explorer).

Add permissions to a folder without emailing everyone
I'd like to be able to edit permissions directly in a folder without sending and receiving a ton of emails. I have not found a way to do this - even silent mode on the admin account does not allow for this. I think the notifications within Box are sufficient to let people know their folder permissions have changed and if I want to send an email it is easier if I just send a single email outside of Box to all affected.

User Activity Report to log all User Events that happened in external outbound folder (grey folder)
Currently, User Events (such as file upload, download and delete by Managed Users) that happened in external outbound folder (grey folder) are logged and can be obtained via Box API. And these user activities within grey folder (by Managed Users) shall be logged in User Activity Report.
These User Events may be required to be kept for few years due to organization's security policy. But currently, User Events are only stored between 2 weeks and 2 month, and user ID needs to be specified when ever it needs to be obtained via API.

Box Drive and Time Machine
You seriously need to work on your time machine issues. Almost all my data are gone, as in GONE, also from the trash bin that you just empty every 30 days. Thanks for hours of work that I will have to put in now to restore data from time machine. Yes, important data. Data that hold HOURS of hard work.
