Box Backup stores times in GMT.

Merely opening a file in an MS Office application can change the
contents of the files.
I would check the clocks on the client app. In snapshot mode, a file
will only be uploaded if the timestamp is greater than now. If your
client clocks are two months in the past, none of their changes will
be uploaded.
