However, Dropbox also has a similar cloud sync feature that worked similar to Box and was pretty comparable to the … Incentivized Helpful? Ragul Kumar Research Executive II in Information Technology at Draup (Management Consulting, 51-200 employees) Chose Box Box is more professional when comparing other alternatives Incentivized Helpful? Leon Prather II, CTS Manager of Digital Services at The Mariners' Museum and Park (Museums & Institutions, 51-200 employees) Chose Box Box is nowhere as deep as Google Drive due to the breadth of Google's ecosystem, but it is a self-contained mini-DAM that most will find works really well.

Incentivized Helpful? Vicky Negi Lead UI/UX in Information Technology at Ideal User (Information Technology & Services, 11-50 employees) Chose Box Google Drive is a bit slower for sending and receiving files.

Pjeter Gjergjaj Senior Network Engineer in Engineering at Nettxio (Information Technology & Services, 201-500 employees) Chose Box They are kind of the same.

Box team maintains, … Incentivized Helpful? Elizabeth Schneider Senior Global Marketing Manager in Marketing at NanoString Technologies, Inc. (Biotechnology, 501-1000 employees) Chose Box Most of these cloud storage platforms have a simple interface and provide a feature of drag and drop to easily upload a file to the online drive with little or no expert knowledge. However, Box goes a step further to store data across redundant servers so that even if one of … Incentivized Helpful? Natalie Nickens Chief Administrative Officer in Professional Services at Capital Impact Partners (Civic & Social Organization, 51-200 employees) Chose Box The first reason that makes Box worth considering is the ability to ensure each authorized network participant can access the stored files. Another key advantage of using Box is that essentially all organization files and backups can be stored on the Box server and with the … Incentivized Helpful? Lochan Kalicharan Desktop Support Specialist in Information Technology at Mount Sinai Health System (Medical Practice, 10,001+ employees) Chose Box Among many other solutions box has been vetted by our security professionals and deemed to be the best solution for our particular organization. This lends to many of box's security features that still allow for collaboration and secure file sharing. Incentivized Helpful? David Lopez Marketing Data Information Services Officer in Marketing at City Hive (Computer Software, 11-50 employees) Chose Box Neither pCloud nor Sync.com comes with unlimited storage, even though they are cheaper than Box. They also do not match most of Box's business features like custom branding and data loss protection. Incentivized Helpful? Alan Bloxham Project Manager in Marketing at FSC (Marketing & Advertising, 1-10 employees) Chose Box We selected Box when our clients were specifically requesting us to use that app. Incentivized Helpful? Bhawnish Kumar Implementation Engineer in Information Technology at BT in India (Information Technology & Services, 10,001+ employees) Chose Box Box has cheap storage pricing and so is preferred by small organizations, and easy to use app and sync make it a good product to use. Cross platform file sharing and editing over the cloud is one of the best features it has. Incentivized Helpful?

The best alternative to other cloud storage because of uploading and sharing the document. Incentivized Helpful? Elena Heyl Global Head of Data Science at Red Bull (Food & Beverages, 10,001+ employees) Chose Box For us switching to Box [was] a big move. It saves us from big problems and troubles which we were already facing while using the other software. Those use a lot of effort and have zero results in terms of results. Box has been a great find for us. Incentivized Helpful? Juliane Steudel Head Of New Business at 3 Sverige (Telecommunications, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Box Compared to all the listed alternatives I would give Box a good rating, because regardless of all the things normally associated with data, Box is always protecting all types of data with great efficiency and full responsibility.

Verified User Chose Box We use both Box and SharePoint for different purposes. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Box Simply put, having unlimited file storage is a clear differentiator. Furthermore, the number of integrations offered by Box is simply unmatched. If you are looking for pure document and file sharing, I don't think there is a better product on the market. The benefits from … Incentivized Helpful? Bianca Oviedo Associate Software Engineer in Engineering at Enterprise (Automotive, 10,001+ employees) Chose Box This platform was a recent selection but before switching to Box we used Hiver, MS SharePoint, Dropbox, and Asana.
