    Agree with you Josh - from our perspective it's one of Box's biggest scams, forcing you to pay $35/month just for access to a feature that is so important it should be included at every level - if we left and moved to Dropbox or similar, this would be one of the main reasons.

    Agreed Adam. Finding out that individual users can enable it with no ability to monitor/enforce is essentially useless from a security audit standpoint.

    What BS! I need to upgrade to enforce good security. One more reason I'm going to look at migrating off of Box. Talk about bone-headed policy.

    when your IT team are telling you to switch to onedrive because its free, and your staff are complaining because box sync/drive are so buggy, and you need to upgrade just to get basic security features, you start to get itchy feet...

    I agree. But I am concerned about the file limitations in OneDrive and the fact that each user controls their own data, so one master user would have to run teh show, unless I wanted to use a SharePoint.

    @Josh didn't realise Onedrive had no out of the box admin controls, not very practical

    @Ken do you have experience using Google Drive as a Box-like solution? I thought Drive was mostly aimed at people also using their G suite tools like Sheets and Docs?
