Useful Information:

Softboxes can control the shape and direction of light, making it softer and more even than an umbrella can, also limiting its spread.

Softboxes are also available in different shapes and sizes: the most common shape is rectangular, excellent for a natural, window-like effect. For softboxes, larger sizes also offer a wider and more even illuminated area, but require more flash power. The necessary size is linked to the subject: for a portrait, a speedlight flash with a small softbox may be sufficient; for groups or larger subjects, a larger softbox will be necessary.

A general rule says that the size of the softbox should be approximately that of the subject: so for a portrait, you can start from 40x60cm, a full-body portrait from 60-80x140cm upwards. For groups, it may be necessary to use multiple softboxes.

The choice of shape is also important, especially if working at close range from the subject, as the shape of the modifier can often reflect in the subject's eyes - this is one of the reasons why octagonal softboxes are widely used in beauty shots, as in addition to providing soft and enveloping light, they create a pleasing circular reflection.
