Change wording of a shared file to a more specific title other than "Shared"
When a Shared Link is created, the file bar in the Web App shows the term "Shared".
It would be beneficial if this showed the specific nature of the shared link, for example instead of "Shared" the "Share" button would change to "In Your Company", "In This Folder", "Everyone".
2 votesThis is not currently planned. We will reconsider this with additional demand.

Integrate iOS 9 PDF Markup feature with Box iOS app and/or Capture app
There is an iOS 9 feature, Markup, which is currently not available from within Box app. This iOS 9 feature would allow any user to open a PDF from the Box app and provide the ability to annotate, markup, and sign.
2 votesWe will consider supporting Box annotations as those will remain with the document across all Box services.

"Failed logins" on Enterprise Settings should clear the number of failed login when a user logins successfully
Currently, the number of failed login piles up even after a user logins successfully. It's strange, so it should be cleared when a user logins successfully.
1 voteThis is a reasonable request, however we do not have enough user demand to prioritize this feature.
-
"Save files to device" settings to separate for Box Capture
Currently, "Save files to device" settings on Enterprise settings affect both Box Mobile App and Box Capture. However, we want to do the settings separately.
1 voteThis is currently not planned, but we will consider with additional customer demand.

Allow Auto-Provisioning from Box Sync App
Currently, users who get Box Sync pushed to their computer (so they see the pop-up Box Sync login page) but haven't gone to the webapp to auto-provision their account end up not being able to log into Box Sync as the Sync login flow does NOT support auto-provisioning.
Request: Allow a user to auto-provision their account from any endpoint, including Box Sync.

Collaborator Expiration Email: Provide Link to Relevant Documentation
Currently, the email that users receive when a collaborator's access to a folder they own is expiring soon does not provide any relevant links to Box Community documentation explaining collaborator expirations, how to extend them, etc. This creates user confusion as to 1) why the collaborators are expiring, and 2) how to extend the collaborator's access to the folder.
2 votesThank you for the feedback. While we understand your request and agree that additional information in the email would be valuable, this feature is not on our roadmap at this time. Should that change in a future, we’ll post updates on this thread.

Bookmarked items do not sync and are not visible in the Sync client
We use Box bookmarks to avoid content duplication. Since we also use Sync, it is a confusing end-user experience

Change the default message in text Box when inviting new collaborator to a folder
Would like to be able to change the default text in this section to another default text. Currently, you can manually edit this section every time you add a new user to a folder. We want to be able to change what populates this section by default.
1 voteWe are unlikely to build a setting to enable changes to this default. However, if there is a better default message that may work for all of our customers, we are happy to reconsider.

Event Stream for move events wants both current parent and past parent folder IDs
After a user does a move for a folder or file, admin event logs stream should show the past and current folder IDs the item lived in.

This is an interesting feature! However, it does not have enough demand or impact in order to be prioritized. We will reconsider with additional demand.

Report on Sync Errors
Our admin would like to report on sync errors, e.g. user receiving error, date of error, type of machine - Windows vs. Mac, OS X 10.11.4 vs 10.11.6, etc.).
This will allow us to troubleshoot and hone in on issues that may be specific to certain environments, monitor trends in issues, recommend best practices
1 voteThis is not planned for development. We will let you know if anything changes.

Support for Differential or Bit-level Sync
We would like support for Sync to recognize differential changes made to a document and only sync the changes, instead of the entire document, especially for large documents.
1 voteThank you for your submission. However, this does not have enough demand in order to be prioritized.
We will reconsider with additional use cases.

Usage stats per region of the world (Global stats)
We have global offices / teams dispersed globally. Admin teams currently have no way to monitor Box usage broken down by these teams (workaround suggestion is to create groups by office, but lots of admin overhead).
Suggestion is to use localization settings, IP address, or Box regional setting and categorize by country or region (Europe, APAC, LATAM, NATAM, etc.) to allow admins to report on usage stats by global region. (heat map of the world, etc.) Current reports with an additional column/filter.

EMM Multi-Window Support for iPad
I need to be able to open multiple documents and easily switch between them with tabs (like iOS Safari perhaps) and I often need to display two documents side by side or have two views of the same document.
1 voteDuring our investigation we determined that this flow was not a highly desired capability for how users currently want to work in Box. It would also require a shift in how our application was build.

Customize shared link expiration for collaborators
When folder owners choose to extend collaborator expirations clicking on the Clock icon, it will only extend the preset period.
1 voteThank you for the request! If there is more demand for this feature, we can consider it.

Ability to adjust the search string, while maintaining the current set of filtering criteria.
As users are searching and adjusting advanced search filters many of times they realize they need to adjust the original search request, and this can be quite cumbersome when they have to repeat the advanced search filter settings.
