Bye Bye BuckeyeBox

Over the last year, we’ve implemented our Office 365 Roadmap to provide all faculty, students, and staff with tools and resources to effectively communicate and collaborate in a mobile and secure way. Our next step in this thoughtful, comprehensive, and important journey is to streamline our cloud storage solutions, which will include the retirement of BuckeyeBox (and “U” Drive for MITS clients) in spring/summer of 2021.

In order to retire BuckeyeBox, we need to get to know our new tools - Teams and OneDrive for Business. These tools offer features similar to Box. We encourage you to begin exploring Teams and OneDrive for Business now. Through the fall we will be offering learning opportunities to get the most out of both tools and to prepare you for the move.

A new Cloud Storage and Collaboration landing page provides resources to help you get ready to move from BuckeyeBox to OneDrive for Business and Teams, including signing up for upcoming webinars. We will continually add tips, training, and frequently asked questions from users to this page, so we invite you to visit often for more information that will help you make this transition smoothly.
