About Business in a Box

Business in a Box (BIB) is a cloud-based Business Operating System (BOS) designed to help small and medium businesses run their operations with structure, clarity, and control.

Most businesses rely on a patchwork of disconnected tools for task management, documents, communication, and planning. Over time, this leads to operational chaos, lost knowledge, unclear responsibilities, and constant firefighting. Business in a Box replaces this fragmented setup with one unified system that defines how the business operates day to day.

BIB combines core business functions into a single platform: task and project management, document and template management, team communication, organizational structure, and execution workflows. Teams can clearly see who is responsible for what, keep all work and information in one place, and maintain continuity even as people change roles or leave the company.

A key difference is that work in Business in a Box is structured around roles and departments, not just individuals. Tasks, documents, and knowledge belong to roles, ensuring that nothing gets lost when team members move on. This makes onboarding faster, improves accountability, and helps businesses...

Business in Box for small business

Overall, business in Box helped to reduce our fees for accountants and lawyers who got paid per hour. But they can do much better.

Functionality

Pros:

The mobile and PC version works with the same effectiveness. You can store your drafts in their system which is a great advantage. Sharing materials and documents is easy. Synchronization with your PC is another great feature.

Cons:

Weirdly it gives access for editing to the non-users. Licensing fees are quite high. Large files like audio or video are downloaded slowly.

Reasons for choosing Business in a Box

Better customer support, overall quality, and pricing according to these 2 points led me to choose business in a box.

Pros:

Business in a box is easy to use. I come up with my business designs and use their templates to bring my invoices and documents to life.

Cons:

What I like best about Business in a Box is that I can use it across Google Docs and Word. This makes performance easy as I already have Google docs and Word set up for use with this software.

unfair practice and subscription

Contracts in BIAB seem decent as references but the Company clearly lacks integrity and a customer care focus

Pros:

was innovative at the beginning in 2011 and seemed promising. Now I just feel cheated. See my review for more

Cons:

In the early days of Business in a Box ( 2011) I purchased a LIFE TIME membership for which I paid upfront for use of the platform. Hence as it was a life-time subscription , I naturally assumed that all future versions and evolutions of the product would be accessible to me. Sounds normal and obvious, right? Well surprise surprise...here is what I received as response from them after a couple of years of not having used it > " the "Lifetime" referred to the life of the software, The software reached end of life in 2020. You can still use the software that was purchased back in 2011 and you will have support for the software. But in regards to the cloud version that we have we cannot offer it to you for free but however I can offer you a discounted price if you wish to have access to the cloud version. We can offer you the cloud version at $119.88 per year, if that interests you please let us know". It seems that the company is now cheating us original Lifetime members , the same members who likely helped them on the road to success, out of our deal by making the TECHNOLOGY used to deliver the product they sold us, and NOT the product itself, a way for them to get out of their obligation. Totally unfair. I wonder if BIAB has a contract sample for how to cheat consumers out of a life time membership. I'd be curious to see their early stage investor decks and how they used growth in LT memberships to secure investor funding.

Pros:

When I purchased Business in a Box, I wasn't really sure what to expect but I needed a really well drafted agreement and Business in a Box had it. I felt that the purchase was worth the money and once I purchased it I was in heaven. I cannot believe all of the templates and forms and products that are available within this software. It's made my life so much easier in every way from writing business plans, to marketing, writing and establishing agreements, and so much more.

Cons:

Once you create or use Business in a Box to create a file, you MUST always have a Business in a Box subscription to continue to use that file. You cannot simply save it and use it forever. You will always need to have that subscription current. But in the end it is worth it. It's a simple cost of doing business.

"Out of the Box" convenience

I use them regularly (and update regularly) for simple terms of transactions documents.

Functionality

Pros:

You can find a business document to use that is reliable and comprehensive. The included document categories are exhaustive , and most can be used 'out of the box.' Value for money spent is really excellent. For business people with limited writing skills, you can find almost anything you need in the everyday course of transactions. Interface large but intuitive.

Cons:

Don't rely on legal documents without a legal review by someone qualified for your business category and state.

Vendor Response

Hello, Thank you very much for your review. We are happy to know that the Business-in-a-Box software is serving its purpose for you. As for the comment that you included in the Cons section, you are absolutely right. We always recommend our users to have their important contracts reviewed by a lawyer or a legal service before signing them. Naturally, the lawyer does not charge the same price for reviewing a document than he would for writing it from scratch. Do not hesitate to contact us should you have any question. Your Biztree Team

Just Amazing!

Using business in a box has allowed me to work more efficiently in my turn around time in creating contracts or documents. It saved me a lot on time management and of course making me look super professional to our clients. Although the price may scare away some I'd say it worth it. It's a one-time investment for those who write lots of documents. Thank you guys for the amazing product!

I love that I can find just about if not every type of document I can think of (in different versions as well). Everything is so easy to modify. Customer service is on point!! I did not even realize when my email was replied to (usually you wait so long to hear back I almost forgot about it) Although I may not need it right now they're different languages.

Don't have any at the moment. If there's an issue it's super minor
