New Honeycomb Feature: Downloads page

Written by Omnidots | May 8, 2023 7:56:46 AM

In the past, downloading large data sets (days or weeks of (raw) data, .csv files) could be a headache for users. It would sometimes crash their browser or give them a broken file. However, we have implemented a solution to fix this issue. Instead of creating the files on the user's device, it now happens on Honeycomb servers. This means that large files are now presented on the Downloads Page. 

To make it even better, we have added a little popup that shows users the download progress on our servers. If they don't want to wait on the Graphs page, they can continue working on a different Honeycomb page and receive a notification when the report is ready for download. No more broken files or crashes - just smooth, effortless downloads of large data sets.
