I was asked by a University collaborator and Box customer to share files using Box. When I tried, I was met with a block to uploading files over 250MB unless I paid money for an upgrade. Obviously, I won't pay to do a simple favor for a collaborator Box customer. If you think the 250MB limit is a good revenue strategy, you should put that to the requestor, not the responder. Because of this restriction/structure, I will not recommend Box to my colleagues.
