After analyzing user feedback, the front-end designers created a new streamlined, more responsive FlowWorks UI that works well on any web-enabled device. Not only do these design improvements simplify workflows, they also modernize the application's overall look and feel. Each is page redesigned to clarify methodological processes, with categorized toolbars, expanded legends and more intuitive icons. FlowWorks strives to be responsive to the needs of its customers, and the following new features are designed with efficiency and accessibility in mind:

• New Manual Site Creation Tool allows clients to enter site details, add channels as needed, and link them to an FTP-based data source, making them instantly available and ready to receive data.
  
  
• New Data Upload Tool quickly imports large amounts of new or back-filling data into FlowWorks sites, and supports for a variety of file formats.
  
  
• Improved Export Data Tool allows the user to either download the data or use the new email delivery service to receive data files, and combine any number of channels and sites to build a raw data file.
  
  
• Network Map now has a new 'Site Details' view to show a site's location, call-in schedule and ongoing alarms. Also, custom data fields for additional site information can be created in virtually any field that consists of a label and type. Site details can be pinned to the top of the Network Map page, and files can be attached to a site to be downloaded at any time.
