Add second Box user name filed
There is First and Last name filed available now when Admin create Box user. When customer integrated with SSO in Japanese, active directory name will be used. However, some Box user will communicate with oversea members, they like to use English name, not Japanese name which synced with Active Directory. So, please add additional filed for user name.

Ability in Box Drive to have documents physically stored on PC or external driver
In Box Drive it would be good that the documents are physically on our PC in offline mode, not just a memory copy (metadata).
30 votesThere’s an ongoing private beta for external drive support on macOS. We’ll share more details as progress is made.
For the other request: with Box Drive on Windows, you can mark files and folders for offline use, and that content will be downloaded to your device. Starting with Box Drive for Windows v4.27, even if you quit Box Drive, all downloaded content remains available on disk and can be opened and edited.

Custom Branding not displaying on mobile
Please include the same custom branding when viewing the mobile site that is displayed in the app and desktop browser. This would bring custom branding to be consistent throughout the BOX UI and lacking on the mobile version.

View only share link to have a print option
When you give someone a share link to view only, it would be really useful if there was a print option as is available for normal previews.

Box drive - DIsk full because of "offline files"
The hard drive of my computer is full (or a small free space available) because Box Drive is using a large part of the free space to load files that I don't want to see, they should stay in the cloud. I want to see on my computer only the files that are configured for "Off Line" access. Today there are more than 50 Gbytes on my computer that are useless.
With box sync, I didn't get this issue, it's a new problem specific to box drive.
It's a critical issue, my computer is running slowly because there is only…4 votes -
Option to only have selected users have access to BOX mobile.
We currently store extremely sensitive information within our BOX system and due to the sensitive information we have disabled the option for BOX to be on any other devices other than desktops, for all users. Is it possible to create an option that would override this option to allow only selected users to have mobile access?

Create a new Folder and name it, without having to click in the box to type.
It sounds small, but when you create a new folder and the window pops up to name it, you have to either hit tab or click into the type box to name the folder. The type cursor should just automatically be ready. It used to be this way until a few updates ago.

Last Mile File Security (When moved out of Box)
Last Mile File Security (When moved out of Box)
Box is a reasonably safe platform for file security. However, when a file moves or downloads out to a user device it drops the security controls in box.
Can there be control when the file of specific classification moves out, the downloaded copy of the file is encrypted and open to the recipient only after box authentication.

GDPR- PII Detection
Increase PII detection templates from just three Social Security no, Credit card and Custom text to more as offered by other DLP products in the marketplace.
In addition to real-time detection, also allow discovery of the legacy data utilizing the same templates. Notification on detection could include an on-screen warning/ policy tip in addition to email and file quarantine options etc.

Preventing Business file leak from Private folder.
Box in our tenant provides a "Private folder", to every user, which doesn't allow the user to add collaborators. User can, however, use box link to share files with others.
In a corporate setting, this folder is supposed to be accessible only by its respective owner( an employee), On an exit of the employee from the organisation, the private files in the folder may be allowed by the organisation to be copied/taken by the employee along. However, at the same time, it must be ensured that the business files are not stored in this folder to avoid leakage.
I suggest…

Make login page more intuitive for non-managed users
When users or collaborators visit Box from the customer's account, they get confused when they get directed to their SSO page and not the login page.
A suggestion is to have the user input their username before getting redirected to the SSO page or make the “not a part of COMPANY?” a bigger option and more visible for the user.
40 votesDue to other higher priority initiatives, this is not prioritized at this time.

see folder in file properties
When I send a colleague an email from Box (by @Name in a comment), the email contains a link to the file, but no info on the location of the file within our folders. If I'm asking that person to change the file's tags, they have to hunt for where the file is located. If they could see the location from the file properties, they could get right to it.

Please create navigation to split "shared with me" files and folders from my own files and folders, similar to OneDrive.
Please, please, create a separate view on the web to just showcase files and folders that are shared with me; rather than files/folders that are of my ownership. Similar to what other file storage providers offer, like OneDrive.
19 votesThank you for the feedback here -we are considering various ways to split shared/owned content & are considering this for the future roadmap, but don’t currently have a timeline for this.

Allow authenticated Box app to control value of "uploader" field through API as the Upload Embed Widget seems to do
Related to https://pulse.box.com/forums/909778-help-shape-the-future-of-box/suggestions/35984452-email-address-given-in-upload-widget-available-for but this is for setting the email address as the Uploader (already collected by separate UI)

Add avility to highlight differences between any 2 versions of BoxNotes.
At this time, highlight is available but it is just once and never appear again.
This idea makes it possible to view differences between the current version and the version one generation ago by showing hilights permanentily . Sure, any 2 versions of BoxNotes are better.

Ability to set default permission on folder level
The customer would like to implement the feature “Default Collaborator Permissions” per folder.
We’re providing it only per tenant at the moment, so it affects to all folders/files in tenant if changed.
As a result, it probably not convenient such as the user changes collaborator permission from Viewer to Editor every time.
So, the customer wants an ability to set default permission per folder.9 votes -

Google
Integrate Box as an additional "drive" in Google Drive. This would allow people to easily share documents from within Google Drive using Box. All of my templates are in Drive, I do real-time collaboration in Google Drive, none of which is currently doable in Box.
