The company adopted a freemium business model, and provides up to 10 GB of free storage for personal accounts. There are official clients offered for Windows and OS X, however Linux is not supported. A mobile version of the service is available for Android, BlackBerry, iOS, WebOS, and Windows Phone devices. The company is based in Los Altos, California.
Business model
Box is a cloud computing business which provides file-sharing, collaborating, and other tools for working with files that are uploaded to its servers. Users can determine how their content can be shared with other users. Users may invite others to view and/or edit an account's shared files, upload documents and photos to a shared files folder (and thus share those documents outside of Box), and give other users rights to view shared files.
Box offers three account types: Enterprise, Business and Personal. Depending on the type of account, Box has features such as unlimited storage, custom branding and administrative controls. Other systems, such as Google apps, NetSuite and Salesforce can be integrated with Box.
Box's enterprise clients include GE, Schneider Electric, and Procter & Gamble.
OpenBox
In December 2007 the company announced OpenBox, which connects content from Box with other web-based applications and services. Included were online services EchoSign, Autodesk, Zoho, ThinkFree, Scribd, Picnik, Zazzle, Twitter and Myxer. Since then, OpenBox added NetSuite, Salesforce, Google Apps, FedEx, MindMeister, Fuze Meeting and others.
OpenBox allows developers to create services that interact with files on Box.com. The application programming interface is implemented over conventional XML.
Integration with mail client
In 2015, Mozilla and Box.com announced integrated support of sending attachment in Thunderbird 38, on all official platform Linux, MacOS and Windows.
