Case Study: boxIT achieves secure, VPN‑free client file sharing and 65-75% gross margins with Axcient x360Sync

BoxIT Protects Data with Axcient Anchor

boxIT, a Bay Area IT support and managed services firm in the Presidio of San Francisco serving 100+ clients and 1,100 end-users, faced widespread use of unmanaged consumer file‑sync tools and heavy reliance on email attachments and VPNs—creating data‑leakage risks and significant support overhead.

boxIT adopted Axcient x360Sync (branded as boxDocs), hosting client data in its private data center and using features like Team Shares, web links with tracking and expirations, revision sync, and file‑server enablement that connects legacy servers to the cloud without reconfiguration. The service now supports 140+ users, is priced per user with pooled storage (delivering 65–75% gross margins), and has reduced engineering time and client dependence on VPNs while improving secure collaboration.
