Manage your files from anywhere
Want the ability to access, share and manage files from wherever you happen to be, without having to invest in expensive technology or IT staff? Box.net makes it simple and affordable to store and manage all your digital content – from financial, creative and productivity documents to image, audio and video files – right from your laptop, your smartphone or any other web-enabled device.
How does it work?
Create folders for your content
Getting started with Box couldn't be easier. All it takes is one click to create a folder. Create as many folders and sub-folders as you want, and organize them however you want. Keep your folders private, or invite others to view, download, edit or upload files. Change folder permissions at any time — you have total control. And with Box's clean, simple interface, uploading, downloading and browsing through files is always a breeze.
Upload documents and media
Box acts as an online, virtual file server. You can use it to store all your documents, spreadsheets, presentations, PDFs, Photoshop and Illustrator files, images, audio and video – if you can store it on your computer, you can store it on Box. Upload files one at a time (up to 2 GB each for Business and Enterprise customers) or drag and drop multiple files all at once. You can even preview most standard files online within Box, using integrated services from Google, Zoho, Scribd and others.
View documents, media and other files instantly
Once your files are on Box, you can view them instantly, without ever leaving your browser. Box's integrated file view feature lets you view the most popular file formats, including documents, spreadsheets, presentations, PDFs, images, Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator files, audio and video. You can flow through all your content in one place, without downloading or worrying about whether you have the right application to view a file. Box takes care of all the heavy lifting for you.
Find files quickly
Whether you're storing a few dozen files or a few thousand, finding what you're looking for is simple thanks to Box's built-in search engine. Search for specific file names, for user-assigned tags or, with Box's Business and Enterprise editions, for specific words or phrases within text-based documents.
Access your files from anywhere
Box is completely web-based, so all you need to access your files is a browser and an Internet connection. Using a mobile browser-optimized version of Box or our iPhone and BlackBerry apps, you can even view and share files on the go with your smartphone or mobile device.
