Pros

“The folder permissions are good for when we have to share certain docs with clients or freelancers without letting them see everything else. Plus, version history has saved us a few times already whenever someone accidentally overwrote a file.”

“It offers strong collaboration features, version history, and advanced security controls, making it a great choice for businesses and teams working on shared documents.”
VC

“An optimal choice for cloud storage, the one stop place for collaborating on various documentation (including versioning). While I'm using Box both within the organization, and also for personal usage, I find it suitable and easy to use for document management, for accessing older versions when needed, and for syncing with local Box Drive.”

Cons

“I do not like how image/video storage works on box and the latency. If you are storing and sharing images and videos through box, it will take you a lot of time if you are looking for a specific image/video and clicking on each image, it takes so much time to load even with a very high speed internet.”

Software Engineer Intern

“The interface can feel less intuitive than some competitors, and certain advanced features are only available on higher-priced plans.”
VC

Viergela C.

Aba

“There's an inefficient notification system, difficulties with integration and file sharing, limitations on file size, and a user interface that can feel dated sometimes.”

Jude K.

Cons

“Our previous WordPress site no longer lived up to our demands for customisation and required quite a few work-arounds for the editors to structure content properly. Upon partnering up with the web consultancy, 1508, we were advised to try Contentful as our new platform.”

“My organisation needed a complete rework of our website when our previous consultancy suspended their services.”
