  1. Ability to search by "co-owner" or "editor", I see we can "sort by owners" but that doesn't do any good for users.

    We have detailers come in all the time we would like to be able to sort at the "All Folder" zone by "co-owner" or "editor" to ensure detailer gets put in all applicable folders. I see sort by "owner" but no one is that high in the group. the highest we're at is "co-owner" . the sorting feature would allow us to find, add and remove person(s) from folder(s) without having to open every folder and sort through all the users.

  2. Disable File Request Feature in Enterprise Settings

    Disabling the File Request feature in enterprise settings should be offered to Admin's of an enterprise that want to restrict any unknown collaborators from uploading content.

  3. Email notifications for uploads to a folder are very delayed

    We would like to request the email service that is responsible for sending upload notifications to be in real time so we do not waste time having to double check with collaborators if they have uploaded something yet.

    We would like it if in reporting, we could get some more information when a shared link has been modified. As in, when it changes from “Item Share Updated” to actual details about what happened to the shared link. The verbiage could mean a number of things, and it makes it unclear to the admin what happened. A few of the things that this can mean are: Access type changed to people with the link, access type changed to people in your company, access type changed to invited people only.

    Use case:
    When security requests reports on links set to…

  6. Cross-platform Box Drive with multiple accounts needed

    I realize this has been asked for in the past, but dismissed without much explanation of why it is "not planned." I'm the admin of a Box enterprise account. Co-admins in our enterprise org require user-level file access to perform their job duties. While our corporate policy does permit employees to use their Box accounts for personal data, there are numerous issues with this:

    1) I travel frequently, and need offline file access, from my computer and devices; can't do that if I have to log out and back in.
    2) Box Drive on mobile devices is not particularly useful…

  8. preview print

    Allow the permission to just "view" & "print" files.
    (However, you manage to do this)

    ...Maybe it's as simple as having a tick button for a Previewer to also allow printing

    ...Currently, a Previewer can view and not print,

    ...a Previewer/Uploader can currently Preview and Upload (Print is meant to work here but is currently not an option despite permission tables saying it should)

    ...a Viewer can currently Preview, Print and Download.

  10. Folder tree reporting based on user permission

    Cannot run a folder tree report out of the admin console due to size constraints. We wants to see folders, “where user is the owner or co-owner.”

  13. Opening PDF files using native PDF viewer

    Clicking on a PDF should open the PDF in the default PDFviewer (e.g. Bluebeam) instead of previewing the file.

  14. Box Drive and Microsoft Apps like Photos to be able to "save as" back to Box drive.

    Users get a low memory error when attempting to "Save As" back to Box Drive. This is a Box Support known issue. Currently users are saving to the desktop and then moving back into Box Drive.

  16. Box should send a notification when the comment of a task is modified

    When a task is assigned, the assignee receives an email notification that a task has been assigned to them to complete. If the task assigner modifies the comment or text for the task, before the task is complete, the assignee is not notified. Many organization who must comply with 17a-4 FINRA compliance will need to capture these communications in Box. If a notification is not sent due to a modified task, the organization may be at risk of being out of compliance. A second notification should be sent for modified tasks.

    As a side note, notifications are sent for modified…

  19. See all current Box downloads in Admin Console

    I'd like to see a page in the Admin Console that shows all of the Box download files, like for Box Drive and Box Edit, with their current version numbers.

    Please start including the version number in the download files so you can know what version you are downloaded without having to install first.

  20. Default shared link order to ascending order by "Name "

    When sharing a link to a folder or file, the default order of the files (or folders) that you are viewing is by updated date. It would make more sense for it to automatically be in alphabetical order when the recipient clicks on the link to open the Box.
