One of the top features of both ION and SOLO is the ability to pause/resume downloads. This simple functionality not only serves as a convenience for your users, but it also helps you save money on delivery costs. With the ability to pause and resume a download session, users can pick up a download where it left off rather than have to re-start the download from the beginning. On large files such as downloadable videos, games, or software, this could mean a dramatic reduction in bandwidth usage.
