Is there a limit to the number of responses my maze can receive?
Mazes with a very large number of responses may experience performance issues when viewing results and/or reports.
Mazes that exceed 2000 responses will automatically stop collecting results.
If you receive over 500 responses, you will start seeing a warning:
500+ answers collected Your maze has received more than 500 answers. This maze will stop after collecting 2000 answers.
In these cases, we recommend downloading your results data to get the best experience.
Is it possible to stop collecting results after a certain number of responses?
At the moment, it's not possible to stop the testing automatically after reaching a pre-defined limit of responses or time period.
