Their s-1 stated that they have 48% of all Fortune 500 companies as clients and ~44k paying clients total. No idea the seat count or per company revenue.
The actual system is inferior UI wise (personal opinion) compared to DropBox.
Sync is worse then DropBox [edit: meant, better then] Google Drive (I find Drive worse then DropBox).
As far as reliability, its top notch, but I can't state anything on DropBox/Drive except that Drive has screwed up version control at a prior company.
Second biggest failing:
Its own "collab" format is horrible (think google docs, etc.). Very poorly done.
Its biggest failing:
No tree view. You can't "expand" folders.
That is ludicrous and makes it extremely hard to navigate. We'll have VP's joke about how they gave up on finding stuff, and just email a group to find X / Y doc / presentation, etc.
Its permissions need work, but overall decent.
Summary: as far as Enterprise level software? It does pretty well, and far less buggy then most things that get plugged into AMS (asset management), Content management, Project Management (several) systems.
Box has had a tree view for many years it's just not obvious where it it's located.
If you are viewing folders, look at the bread crumb navigation. The first bread crumb will have drop down arrow which gives you a folder tree view. This tree also has search.
