To be honest, I don't see that much difference in speed between Box and Google Drive. I think those reporting significant speed issues need to consider the possibility of other causes than basic programming or Box's technical infrastructure.

Even if it was slower, certainly many people can find a use for 50 gig of drive space for free!
I already have 50GB free It was offer to me because of a review of their service I did. The Syncing is fine until you try use that free space. I uploaded each day 1GB as an experiment till I reach 8GB and it become unusable. There Android app works fine though. Desktop version needs some serious work if you going to actually use the space given to you.

I've been running their sync program for the last 3 hours. It's still at 14% saying looking for files on my PC. My Box folder is empty.

Here's a thread at their Support Forum so people can see I'm not the only one who has issues using their sync software.
