Pros

“Collaboration features such as file previews, comments, and real‑time editing worked smoothly and reduced the need to download documents or rely on multiple versions.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“Excellent Microsoft integration – Seamless integration with tools like Microsoft 365 (Word, Excel, Outlook) made it easy to edit and collaborate on documents without leaving Box.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“Integration with Microsoft 365 was a notable strength, allowing documents to be edited and co‑authored efficiently while remaining within Box’s secure environment.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

Pros

“Calendar and scheduling features are useful for team coordination, especially when integrated with other Microsoft tools, making it easier to manage shared events and deadlines in one place.”

Swarnima G.

Software Engineer

“As an IT Professional managing infrastructure and productivity tools for a mid-sized company, SharePoint (as part of Microsoft 365) has become our central hub for document storage, team collaboration, intranets, and business processes.”

Joe B.

IT Systems Specialist

“MS SharePoint is a good tool to help organizations improve collaboration, streamline document management, help employee engagement and track projects. Although there is a learning curve to it and a complex interface, it provides a lot of customization to your business needs. If you already have other MS products, this is worth the money.”

Victoria T.

Self-Employed

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

“Performance occasionally slowed when working with large folders or many files, and offline access was less intuitive than native desktop file systems.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

“Interface can feel cluttered – With many enterprise features layered in, the user experience isn’t always as clean or intuitive as some lighter file‑sharing tools.”

Radha S.

Legal Assistant

Cons

“We also have frequent issues with users who upload a new profile photo to the directory taking several days to sync and eventually show up throughout Sharepoint.”

Clyde W.

System Administrator

“It also needs a proper structure from the start, because if folders, sites, and permissions are not planned well, it can get messy quickly.”

Basel E.

IT Manager

“In addition, search results can occasionally be inconsistent if documents and metadata aren't well maintained. Despite these points, none of them have been significant enough to outweigh the overall benefits we've experienced.”
