Overall a great way to share data and keep it secure. Also love the desktop version so I can access things from there as needed.

Great to securely store and share files, ease of use, customer service is excellent, very niche features, Value for money.

A great place to keep all your files, good for collaboration between multiple employees, recommend using the box sync app to quickly move files around with ease.

It's easy to set up, and the fact that it has a desktop version is great. The drag-and-drop ability is intuitive and exactly what a user would expect.

Box is great for team collaboration, BoxSync makes it even better, and accessible from any computer. With Box you can seamlessly store and retrieve files from around your company.

Box can crash randomly and can be a bit confusing to use for first time users.

Box is great for a low budget company and also when you are looking for something a bit specific to your needs.

Box's partner friendly/integration friendly philosophy positioned itself perfectly for the current and future state of business software.

Ability to save and attach documents via email. The ability to work collaboratively with files for example ability to share and update documents.

I have a problem that when i upload sometimes it stops and doesn’t go on, so i have to cancel and upload again.

There is something very weird when I access Box with multiple devices, that it fails to automatically sync between them. It has caused a great deal of trouble for me.

The benefits have been outstanding. The cost verses the value is incredible, it has great security, and it has great ease of use.

Providing clear API documentation. Quick technical support.

E-Signature make it more secure and Integration with lot of apps is wonderful. The cost and price is very reasonable and economical compared to the many features it provides to the user.

Really great tool that makes life at the office better. It has a fun interface that is intuitive and works.

It isn't limited by this fact, however, and can be as advanced as you want it to be. The ability to password protect links is great.

During the trial days in which I use this service, my experience with the product has been good and satisfactory. It is a very good alternative to other similar services.

The app makes really easy to safely store files and access then anytime. To me this is the most important and desirable feature an app like this should have.

I liked being able to share documents with other people super easily. It was great for group projects I was working on.

I love Box's reliable and easy to use file sharing service. Box's secure software allows you to share important files with people inside and outside your company.

I can get lost of what I’m trying to find if there is a lot in the folder.

Overall I think it's a great system. Feels good knowing that all our content is backed up and accessible to the entire team at any point.

The main disadvantage of this solution is related with the file sharing. It is a bit restricted and provokes some problems when downloading if the files are big (in the order of tens of GB).

I love that I can store and organize files from all of Google's suite of services. I love that it backs up to my physical computer.

The personal data and all the files are safe now because google drive is the best platform. I am very happy to have it.

It has a Google Docs integration which is perfect when you share too many documents. I like that you can edit online and the 15g of free storage.

It's perfect for storing your files, I own a business and I'm also a Web Developer so keeping my files in a secure place where I can access them anytime and from anywhere is very important.

Overall this is an excellent product with great customer service.

Super easy to use and pretty easy to organize. Thumbnails give a big clear preview of the file which is  helpful as well.

I love the user friendliness of it and the accessibility it gives to our team. The Google Spreadsheets is a lifesaver.

Is that its easy to use with other google app. Its offer good customer service and it offer the most storage space unlike other app.

Also, sometimes when I uploaded files from my phone it took forever to upload and it stopped, giving me errors. This was a while ago, but it happened for almost 3 months and it was quite annoying.

It can sometimes be a little confusing to organize and the kids I work with have trouble loading documents to it from chrome-books.

Google changed the quotas for my available data storage which required me to archive my Google Drive content or I was in danger of my Gmail and other services losing functionality.

What I like the most is the ability to share documents easy and fast across computers/users. I'm able to collaborate with ease and at a fantastic price.

Trying to copy information or keep formatting from the Drive to other software is terribly inconsistent and a pain to fix.

Google Drive is an amazing product. It is very amazing to have all of your files in the cloud and the fact that you can access all of them just by logging onto your computer is awesome.
