Take a moment to read how Box helps people every day:

Box Saves the Day
“I had to print a 20 page essay so I took my essay into the library on a USB stick to print it there. The stick snapped in my pocket and stopped working, but luckily I also backup important docs to Box. It was sitting there waiting to be printed and saved me a lot of grief with a deadline.” - Tim Dickinson

Send Large Files
“I run a team of technical consultants focused on making customers happy and successful with our products…I need to transfer larger files around such as software updates, sample data as well as receive data from them. Box allows me to do this instantly. Anyone can use Box and be successful with it right away.” - Brian Roepke
“When journalists contact me for stories, I don’t have the resources to ship them DVDs or press kits always in a timely manner. Being able to send them to a Box page is key. Box is by far the best company doing online storage. In short, Box saves our ass.”
- Dave Nadelberg

Connect with Others
“Box allows me to share large files, files that are too large to be sent by email…I’ve met an incredible person and we’ve been sharing videos of each other to build our relationship and communicate visually from a distance.” - Aleks Baron

Data Protection
“I primarily started using it when I was working on my Masters Thesis. It was a great secure place to store backups of my thesis in the event that I lost or forgot to bring my USB stick with me.” - Nick Carrasco
