ShareAndGo vs Box
Box is a horizontal cloud storage platform priced per user. ShareAndGo is a virtual data room priced per workspace — purpose-built for Australian professional services teams sharing documents with clients, auditors, and counterparties.
The team-size maths
Box's per-user model gets expensive fast. ShareAndGo's flat per-workspace pricing doesn't.
Box AU promotional pricing as displayed on box.com/en-au/pricing (May 2026). ShareAndGo prices flat per workspace — no per-user fees, no minimum-seat math.

Use the AI you're already paying for.
Box's AI is locked into Box. You buy AI Units from Box. To unlock multi-step AI agents that can read, organise, and modify files on your behalf, you need Box Enterprise Plus — A$70 per user per month, three-user minimum, A$210/month floor before you've added a single document.
ShareAndGo speaks the Model Context Protocol natively. Connect your existing claude.ai or ChatGPT subscription as a custom connector — your AI gets read access by default, optional write access on opt-in, all gated by per-room owner consent. The same multi-step agent capability is on every ShareAndGo plan, including the A$59/month Professional tier.
Pick Box if...
- You need a horizontal cloud storage / collaboration platform across the whole organisation, not just a VDR for transactional sharing.
- Unlimited storage and 50GB+ file uploads are hard requirements (large media, design files, datasets).
- Your procurement requires FedRAMP Moderate, HIPAA, or 1,500+ ecosystem integrations today.
- You're happy paying per user as the team grows.
Pick ShareAndGo if...
- You're an Australian accountant, adviser, or legal team needing APP-compliant data residency and per-engagement document control.
- You want flat per-workspace pricing — predictable, doesn't scale with headcount.
- You'd rather use your own Claude or ChatGPT subscription than buy AI Units from your VDR vendor.
- You need NDA gating, tamper-evident audit, AI PII redaction, and Q&A workflows out of the box.
- Your external recipients shouldn't need to create a Box account just to read three PDFs.
