R.I.P. FTP

Eliminate your FTP servers and use Box as your FTP replacement

Box across all devices

A secure FTP alternative

Just like CD players and fax machines, FTP servers are bulky and outdated. They’re difficult for employees to use and time consuming for IT to manage. And the lack of security controls and ongoing maintenance and hardware costs make it insecure and impractical as your business grows. Leave the past behind with Box—the secure alternative to FTP.

Monitor content usage with comprehensive reporting, protect sensitive data with robust access permissions and enforce application passcodes on mobile devices.

03 Seamless collaboration

Employees can work together in Microsoft Word or Excel. Plus, they'll always have the latest file version on hand and can revert to earlier versions if needed.

04 Simplify management

As a fully cloud-based solution, Box eliminates the burden of provisioning new hardware, increasing storage and maintaining network infrastructure.

Box Customer, Edima Elinewinga - UN Foundation, Quote
“External collaboration was impossible with FTP and lack of centralized control over content became a concern—for both transfer and storage of documents. Box has simplified file sharing and secure collaboration, and has given us control over our content.”
