Pros & Cons

Box

Pros

  • Unlimited storage on Business plans and above with enterprise-grade security certifications (SOC, HIPAA, FedRAMP)
  • Built-in AI from OpenAI, Anthropic, and Google for content summarization, extraction, and Q&A across documents
  • Unlimited e-signatures included at no extra cost on Business plans, eliminating need for separate e-sign tools
  • 1,500+ integrations with Microsoft 365, Google Workspace, Slack, Salesforce, and more
  • No-code workflow automation and app builder for custom business processes without developer involvement

Cons

  • Pricing is shown in MXN on their site and per-user costs can add up significantly for larger teams
  • External collaborators on the Business plan require additional per-user fees
  • Free Individual plan is very limited (10 GB storage, 250 MB upload limit, 1 file version)
  • Advanced features like Box Shield, KeySafe, and Zones require Enterprise-tier plans or add-ons

Figma

Pros

  • Real-time multiplayer editing lets entire teams work on the same file simultaneously
  • Design systems with shared components, variables, and libraries keep large organizations consistent
  • Browser-based with no installation required, works on any operating system
  • Dev Mode provides a dedicated space for developers to inspect designs and extract code
  • Figma Sites and Figma Make extend functionality from design into actual website and app publishing

Cons

  • Requires internet connection for full functionality as it is cloud-based
  • Per-seat pricing becomes expensive at scale, especially for Organization and Enterprise tiers
  • Advanced features like branching, SSO, and org-wide libraries are locked behind higher tiers
  • Not a full illustration or print design tool—primarily focused on UI and screen design

Our Verdict

Both Box and Figma are excellent choices with similar feature sets. Your decision should depend on your specific needs, pricing, and whether you need self-hosting capabilities.
