The problem it solves

When you share folders with clients or teammates in Box, you often don't know a file changed until someone mentions it. Checking the folder manually to see what's new wastes time you don't have.

Who it fits

Teams or agencies that collaborate on shared files and folders in Box.

How it works

  1. A file is added, changed, or shared in your Box account
  2. The system detects the event instantly
  3. A notification is prepared with the details of what changed
What you get

File changes flagged the instant they happen

You get an instant alert whenever a file is added, changed, or shared in your Box account.

What you get

An instant alert whenever something changes in your Box folder.

What you need

A Box account.
