  1. Limit the resources being used by Box Sync

    Users would like an option to limit the resources being used by box sync. This is affecting coworkers; it is not just an issue with machine.

    We are not planning to implement controls around this in Box Sync. You may consider trying Box Drive to see if that improves the resource utilization issue. Since it only uses bandwidth for content users access, it may help to improve things here.

  2. Ability to control access to Box Mobile App per User/Group

    Ability to control access to Box Mobile App per User/Group.

    I file the request on behalf of the customer.
    The customer would like to control access to Box Mobile App per User/Group but it seems that Box can only disable Box Mobile App per Enterprise at this moment.

  3. Silently sign in users to Box Drive using their Windows Credentials.

    “Enable silent account configuration. For info, see Silently sign in users to the OneDrive sync client with their Windows credentials. If a device is not already joined to Azure AD, enabling this setting will join it.”

  4. Enable account upgrades without needing to have 3 members

    I currently have a Personal Pro account, and I'd like to upgrade to get more storage. It seems, however, that all upgrade options involve at least 3 users. I am but one. As much as I'd like to clone myself sometimes, it's just not practical (or, frankly, ethical...but that's another story).

    Can we make a way to upgrade a 1-person account without having to pay for two unnecessary users?

    If not, you're essentially throwing up a middle finger to solo practitioners, which isn't very nice.

  5. Conflict with the Adobe Photoshop short key (on Windows) Ctrl,Shift,Alt+B

    The short key combination (on Windows) Ctrl,Shift,Alt+B, overrules the Adobe Photoshop version of this combination by opening a Box search window. As I use this combination in Photoshop (to open the black/whit dialogue window) it is often quite annoying that even when working in Photoshop this combination doesn't work as intended. An option to have the possibility to change the short key combination (or another solution) in another would solve this problem. More so because I understand that checking all short keys that are in use in any program is impossible.

  7. The rename button needs to be on top and not blocked by subsequent columns

    Since a recent update, the rename button (being the pencil icon at the end of the item name) dissappears behind the subsequent columns. This means I can no longer just click on it to accurately name new items. This used to be always accessable and now I must go thr long wayt around to rename items - which is for every. single. item.
    Please correct this ASAP!

  9. Automated Folder Actions

    Under Folder Settings -> Automated Actions, the "Unshare this folder on a specific date" option is a little confusing/misleading as it does not indicate that this is only for folders with a Shared Link enabled, and has nothing to do with removing/unsharing collaborations. Recommend the language be updated in this setting, instead of saying "Folder must be shared first" to "Shared Link must be enabled first"

    Box for Office causing “Outlook detected a COM add-in problem” . We know that there is a workaround by modifying the registry keys. However, modifying the registry keys a very hard change for the end user so that the customer is asking us to improve this as product.

  12. Your email reminders to setup 2FA are too aggressive

    Over the course of 6 hours (during the night), I received 5 emails asking me to 'Set up 2 Factor Authentication'. This is quite aggressive.

  14. Box Drive status bar icon

    When clicking the "box" icon pinned to the windows status bar, it opens up a search pop-up. Using Box Sync, clicking the icon pinned to the status bar would open up a new windows explorer window.

    With box drive, you have to right-click the icon, then click "open box folder". I would like the option to change this to function like Box Sync did.

  16. View comments without opening a file's preview

    We would like to hover over a file and be able to see the file's comments by the comments appearing at the bottom or side of the page. We would love to see this on both mobile and desktop but would ask for priority on desktop. We write descriptions for our files in comments and then organize our files this way - this becomes time consuming when we have to open each file to preview to view the comments. If we can just hover over the file without opening it to see comments, it would really increase productivity!

  17. RSA Archer Integration

    Trying to understand if Box can integrate into RSA Archer (a Governance, Risk, and Compliance tool). We have been unable to find any information on whether Box has this integration and if not what one could look like.

  19. Remove collaborators from certain sub folder

    We need some enhancement on the removing collaborator for certain sub folder. For example I grant Amy to the parent folder which consists of sub folder A, B & C. However, I want Amy to only view sub folder A & C. Thus, I need to remove her name from sub folder B but BOX doesn't allow me to do so. My suggestion to at least add a function in order for the owner of the folder to remove collaborators for certain sub folder. Thank you.
