Fix Your Beta Reports
If your reports are still in "beta" for over two years, you should change the name from "beta" to "buggy". Quite often, even the most basic reports take minutes to load and frequently the error message stating "we're in beta" appears. Hard to run a business without consistent reporting functionality.

Hi all - we sincerely apologize that this issue hasn't been updated in quite a long time. We wanted to provide an update on the progress we've made just in the past few months alone.
After undertaking what was quite a large back-end migration, we've managed to decrease beta reporting load times by as much as 85%, meaning that your beta reports data should be just 30-45 minutes old. Additionally, the new platform lends so much more stability than our old infrastructure.
Despite the status of this idea saying "Complete," we want to assure you that we're still working on additional improvements to our infrastructure which will ultimately lead to even better reporting speed. These future improvements are just captured under different ideas and roadmap items within our Idea Portal.
We hope these improvements make your end-of-month reporting easier and quicker as we move into July!

Beta reports are still not good. Single day detailed line item reports time out on me. Also, when exporting a csv which should be very quick, it seems like it runs the entire report again which can sometimes take entirely too long for such a simple report.
