## Reviews

### "Business forms" — 5.0/5

> **Verified Reviewer** | *22 October 2019* | Arts & Crafts | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: the free trial has just enough for me to fill out, and print the document. Being an artist, and writer I use a lot of forms.i also keep up with a variety of computer parts to sell second hand.
> 
> **Cons**: it is a good program,and the free trial is all i need right now.I see nothing wrong with it so far,and will continue to use it.
> 
> it helps me to find the proper forms I need to sell my products,and keep up with inventory

### "Awesome Product" — 5.0/5

> **Cedric** | *28 December 2018* | Wholesale | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software is a complete business tool with all the necessary forms needed for running a successful business. The customer service is also excellent, Anytime something was not working properly the customer service team was right on top of it and made sure I continued to have a pleasurable experience using the product.
> 
> **Cons**: So far none at this time, as I fine this to be a great product and would highly recommend.
> 
> Just having the proper forms available and just having the ease of just filling in key information that is relevant to you. When compared to other similar  products this ranks \#1 in my opinion.

-----

### "Trapped into the yearly subscription" — 2.0/5

> **Walid** | *30 April 2023* | Capital Markets | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: It covers all major business legal aspects -
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing is impressive as the legal docs suggested are very plain vanilla - very poor value for money
> 
> Beware - I was trapped into a yearly subscription of 299 euros per year through Business in a Box website false advertising - clearly advertising a  per month price/payment but mentioning in low case grey that is billed annually\!\! when I approached the customer service to complain, the answer was as rude as "sorry we can't do anything about it\!\!\!

-----

### "Create Your Own Agreements" — 5.0/5

> **Sergio** | *20 February 2020* | Investment Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Easy to use. There are contracts and agreements to suit any need and the software makes it easy to navigate and find the exact contract you are looking for.
> 
> **Cons**: To date, the software has satisfied every need I have required so cannot state anything negative about it.
> 
> I purchased the software to see examples of Buy/Sell agreements. Not only did I find an assortment of agreements but I was also able to find supplementary agreements to deal with other matters I hadn't thought of with the case I was working on. I did the agreements myself and sent them to my lawyer to review. He made very little changes to the contracts and I ended up saving a lot in legal fees.

-----

### "Great Product & Support" — 5.0/5

> **Vivien** | *20 December 2018* | Management Consulting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Wide selection of documents that can be used in business, e.g. agreements, resolutions etc.&#10;&#10;When we first used their template for agreements, we still passed to our lawyer to review before adopting and they also said the quality of the agreement is good.
> 
> **Cons**: Unable to check and change status of installed license, so whenever we have changed the computer and have forgotten to uninstall the software, we have to seek help from customer service. Fortunately, their customer support is efficient and very helpful.

Over time, this leads to operational chaos, lost knowledge, unclear responsibilities, and constant firefighting. Business in a Box replaces this fragmented setup with one unified system that defines how the business operates day to day.\n\nBIB combines core business functions into a single platform: task and project management, document and template management, team communication, organizational structure, and execution workflows. Teams can clearly see who is responsible for what, keep all work and information in one place, and maintain continuity even as people change roles or leave the company.\n\nA key difference is that work in Business in a Box is structured around roles and departments, not just individuals. Tasks, documents, and knowledge belong to roles, ensuring that nothing gets lost when team members move on. This makes onboarding faster, improves accountability, and helps businesses scale without breaking their processes.\n\nBusiness in a Box also includes AI-powered assistance that learns from the context of your business—your goals, projects, tasks, and documents—to support planning, documentation, and execution. AI is embedded into the system to help teams work smarter, not as a separate tool to manage.\n\nWith a Free Forever Starter Plan and simple, transparent per-user pricing, Business in a Box is built for businesses with 1 to 100 employees that want to move from ad-hoc operations to intentional, system-driven execution—without enterprise complexity.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/cd2d8b38-fd0d-470d-b91b-6f8bb8dc00b4.png","url":"https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2047343/business-in-a-box","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2047343/business-in-a-box#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.getapp.za.com/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","ratingValue":4.6,"bestRating":5,"ratingCount":49},"offers":{"price":"25","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"name":"Home","position":1,"item":"/","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Team Communication Software","position":2,"item":"/directory/1257/team-communication/software","@type":"ListItem"},{"name":"Business in a Box","position":3,"item":"/software/2047343/business-in-a-box","@type":"ListItem"}],"@id":"https://www.getapp.za.com/software/2047343/business-in-a-box#breadcrumblist"}]}
