About:
Box Drive brings your entire cloud content library directly to your desktop, allowing you to work with files as if they were stored locally. It provides on-demand access to all Box content without consuming local disk space, syncing files only when you open or modify them. This seamless integration enables you to use familiar desktop applications to edit cloud-stored files while maintaining cloud backup and collaboration features.
Key Features:
  • On-demand sync that only downloads files when accessed
  • Finder/Explorer integration for native file browsing
  • Automatic cloud backup of local changes
  • Offline access to frequently used files
  • Real-time collaboration indicators
Use Cases:
  • Accessing large cloud storage libraries without filling local SSD
  • Collaborating on documents using desktop applications
  • Working offline with automatic sync on reconnect
Alternatives:
  • Dropbox – Similar desktop sync but with different cloud ecosystem
  • Google Drive for Desktop – Alternative cloud storage with G Suite integration
  • OneDrive – Microsoft ecosystem alternative with Office integration
