Box offers the capability of collaborating simultaneously with other users on live Word, Excel, and PowerPoint documents. In order to access this feature, follow these the directions below:
Open a web browser.
Go to https://ucla.box.com and login.
Select the document that you would like to collaborate with others on.
Click on the appropriate application button in the upper right-hand corner of the screen to open the web-based collaboration platform.
Anyone that has been invited as an editor on this document will have the ability to simultaneously make changes via the web-based collaboration platform.
All edits that you make via the web-based collaboration platform will be updated on the document and automatically saved.
Please note: there is no way to simultaneously collaborate on files via the Box Drive desktop client. All simultaneous collaboration must happen through the Box web client. This is a limitation of all cloud-based storage systems (such as Google Drive) and network-based storage systems (such as the share drive).
