Yup, they do "big" integration well.
The actual system is inferior UI wise (personal opinion) compared to DropBox.
Sync is worse then DropBox [edit: meant, better then] Google Drive (I find Drive worse then DropBox).
As far as reliability, its top notch, but I can't state anything on DropBox/Drive except that Drive has screwed up version control at a prior company.
Second biggest failing:
Its own "collab" format is horrible (think google docs, etc.). Very poorly done.
Its biggest failing:
No tree view. You can't "expand" folders.
That is ludicrous and makes it extremely hard to navigate. We'll have VP's joke about how they gave up on finding stuff, and just email a group to find X / Y doc / presentation, etc.
Its permissions need work, but overall decent.
Summary: as far as Enterprise level software? It does pretty well, and far less buggy then most things that get plugged into AMS (asset management), Content management, Project Management (several) systems.
- foolfoolz 12y agoBox has had a tree view for many years it's just not obvious where it it's located. If you are viewing folders, look at the bread crumb navigation. The first bread crumb will have drop down arrow which gives you a folder tree view. This tree also has search.
- salemh 12y agoWow, I'll give that a try today. Even after some googling all I had found was more questions/asks for the tree-folder view on support boards for Box.
- salemh 12y agoSince I can't edit, I don't believe they have that option anymore: https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/200995456-The-Box-header-looks-different-What-happened-?preview%5Btheme_id%5D=200088027&use_theme_settings=false?preview%5Btheme_id%5D=200088027 https://support.box.com/hc/en-us/articles/200995456-The-Box-...
