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.”

Pritam P.

Early Childhood Educator

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

Viergela C.

Aba

“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.”

Robert S.

Data Visualization

Pros

“DocSend gives me granular control over who sees our proprietary systems. Despite some minor UI quirks, the ability to track exactly where partners get stuck in our tech docs makes it an invaluable tool for our engineering workflows.”

Estrella A.

Software Engineer

“Setting up watermarks and tracking page-by-page analytics gives me great visibility before meetings.”

Estrella A.

Software Engineer

“One of my favorite tools included in this is that I am able to edit files that I've already sent without needing to send another copy, which is something that I would have to do if I used email to send it, it's a small detail but truly necessary in today's technology.”

Josh N.

Realtor

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.”

Vatsal K.

Software Engineer Intern

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

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.

Business advertiser

Cons

“It could just be me, but it can feel a bit limited with customization, which is a problem quite a few programs of this kind have.”

Kate W.

Office Manager

“The only issue I had with Dropbox was how cluttered the system would get when working with various clients.”

Ethan J.

Auditor

“Unfortunately, the ability to video share was not a great option at the time.”

Shawnalee K.
