Box Drive, Box Edit and Box Web - How to use them and when to choose them! 

Box Drive allows you to access your files in Box using Windows Explorer (or Finder from Mac) making this tool the best choice for accessing files in much the same way as as you did when they were stored on the network drives.  In addition Box Drive now has a new feature that allows you to mark your folders for use offline.  The addition of this feature makes Box Sync obsolete.  Click here for detailed instructions on how to use Box Drive.  Box Edit allows you to edit any file including Office, CAD and Photoshop directly from your web browser.  

 

Introduction to Box

Box Notes 

Box Notes makes it easy to create meeting notes, share ideas, track status updates and plan projects together — there's no limit to your productivity. And, every Box Note is instantly available on web, mobile or your desktop, so you can access your ideas from anywhere. 

Box + Office Online

When building Box for Office Online we prioritized ease of use and comprehensive capabilities, so people can be more efficient and productive at work. With that in mind, we included these key features:

  • Seamless workflows between Box and Office Online: Users can work on files in Office Online from Box through a simple 'open with' button, and all edited files are automatically saved back to Box with no action required.
  • Full editing capabilities: All of the editing features that have made Office Online the standard for creating documents, spreadsheets and presentations in the cloud, will be fully functional from the Box platform and available with the same interface that our users are familiar with.
  • Easier collaboration with 'share': Soon, users will be able to share content in Office Online in the same easy way it's done in Box - by simply clicking the 'share' button, users are prompted with the granular collaboration controls they expect from Box.
