We have been using Citrix Sharefile with mixed review.  (We previously
used LeapFile.) Does anyone have box.com deployed?

Subject: [SECURITY] Sharing Files Securely with External Parties

We have a couple techniques for sending/sharing files securely with
internal and external parties, but they are not user-friendly for
non-technical users.

We are looking for a good service that the average user can use to
securely share/send files with external parties, preferably one that does
not require the outside party to sign up for a service or create an
account? For example, we could use OneDrive for Business, but it requires
the recipient to have a Microsoft account to access the file unless we set
it as an open link. At least that is how their support site describes how
it works.

Thanks,
John
