Ability to report on what types of files users have
The ability to drill down at the user level to show what kinds of files a user has. E.g. 50% .docx, 10% jpg etc. without looking at the content itself.
0 votesThank you for the suggestion! We are not reviewing this at the moment, but will consider with additional customer demand.

Add "Updated/Changed" File Event as a Trigger
Add "Updated/Changed" File Event as a Trigger.
Triggering a Relay on a specific file when it has been updated directly or updated with an upload, maintaining file history.
The current workaround is to create a "New upload" Trigger, then the file needs to be Deleted and create/uploaded from new, thus requiring 2 steps and losing file history.

It would be nice if the "Updated" column showed a time, not just a date, stamp
We update our files so frequently that the date stamp is not sufficient; we need a time stamp. Thank you!

Add additional file attribute filters when viewing files
Currently there are only 3 file filter attributes. (Name, Updated, Size) Would like to add additional file details to the UI. For example, if a file is received via File Request and file description is enabled, have that available for view right on the screen instead of having it to hover the "i" icon to view the details

Automatic retry on files with upload errors
Currently if there is an issue with a file upload (the one I'm currently running into is the "File may be locked or in use" error) Box Sync requires a manual step where you click the Retry button in the Box Sync tray icon context menu.
This is problematic for me because I'm trying to full automate our build pipeline. In my scenario we generate a nightly build, zip it up and copy it to the Box Sync folder. The problem for me has been that it appears that Box Sync is a bit too hasty and attempts to upload…

Add ability to change sort order of comments
In the latest UI, comments on files are sorted in chronological order instead of reverse chronological order. I'd like the option to change my sort order so that newest comments are listed first.
18 votesAs part of the usability enhancements rolling out in the update noted here here – https://community.box.com/t5/Box-Product-Updates/Simplified-Sharing-Public-Beta/idi-p/64620 – we updated the Activity sidebar in Preview to sort comments with the latest comment at the bottom, aligning with the comment composer’s location at the bottom and to make way for future updates planned for the sidebar. As a result, we don’t plan to change sort order.

Box Hubs - Ability to Share Hub with All Managed Users
We have a number of Hubs that are geared towards providing information to all employees. As such, it would be great to be able to share a Hub with all managed users. In addition, it would be helpful to have the ability to share any file or folder with all managed users without having to create and manage and all users group or adding multiple groups to a file/folder to accomplish this.

Your browser based video player is slow and doesn't always load files.
video player is slow and at least 60% of the time I have to download a video because your website won't finish loading. It regularly gets hung up on the last 10% and will just sit there. This issue is destroying my productivity, and I am forced to download the files to my computer just so I can view them. My computer doesn't have infinite space, that's why we pay for your service.

Display of confirmation message screen to prevent accidental operation of Box Drive
When using Box Drive, it is common for users to accidentally delete, move, or copy files.
When manipulating large numbers of files, this failure can lead to serious information leaks and other problems.
Therefore, it would be helpful to improve functionality such as displaying a confirmation message when deleting, moving, or copying files to better prevent accidental operations.7 votes -
Mark file as safe across entire enterprise
We have a file stored in multiple (hundreds of) locations across our Box enterprise and it regularly gets falsely flagged as malicious. We mark it as safe each time, for each location. It would be nice if there was a way to mark the file as safe for ALL locations in our Box enterprise at once. The file is identical name, size, and hash in each location so marking it as safe once instead of hundreds of times would be very much appreciated.

Visual colour reference on files as a label
We currently use another cloud based system for image approval with a creative team. We are currently looking at moving this service over to box. Currently to approve reject images the team use labels. As a creative team they love labels as they are visual. A basic dropdown you can select against the image or multiple images that are colour coded without having to go in any sub menus to apply. Is there any plan to add a label function in box. Or is there one already that I’ve missed. I understand you can use tags/Meta data to do this…

"Shared links" - search functionality
Currently "Shared links" do not have the search functionality or the search bar enabled. This is presenting an issue some someone that needs to share a ton of files and for one reason or another cannot add the users as collaborators.

Provide the ability to have multiple brands under Box
We are a financing company that has a section of our business that operates under "Private Label Branding." This means we are the financing arm "acting" under the brand of our partners. Currently, how box operates provides a unique problem for us. If we want to utilize file sharing with the Private Label End-users, our actual company logo and information is what is seen while having them engage in either typical file sharing/collaboration, and while using the File Request link.
It would be great to have the ability use the colors, logos, etc of our Private Label customers while still…

Trash file from its preview
The trash command is missing from within the "..." button of the document view.
The workaround requires a lot of extra steps: navigate to the parent folder, select the file, trash the file.
Moreover it is not consistant with what is possible with folders: you can trash a folder from its own view.53 votes -
