Apart from SSRS (Sql Server Reporting services) you can look for Crystal Reports. Its not an open source tool but quite useful for even complex reports.**************************************Even my blood group says be -ve to all the negatives. |

Here are my .02 since this seems to be a continuing problem with developing .net apps. Crystal / Logi are nice, but extremely expensive to integrate in "boxed" or SaaS products. MS SRS is obviously powerful, but pretty difficult to fully customize to seamlessly integrate the look and feel of an existing app. Active reports uses a crystal/MS style report designer and doesn't break the bank, but we had to implement a designer that a non-IT end-user could use with no problems or knowledge of the database schema at all. It had to pull from stored procedures, views and some cubes via mdx. In the end, management looked at the cost/time to develop in-house, and decided to go with this built for OEM product-- it worked pretty well for us. Maybe it will help you guys out.[url]http://www.izenda.com[/url] |

Can you explain more on this? does SSRS require anything else to be bought? we are thinking which way to go Crystal reports or SSRS?I need your inputs on Cost of softwarefeatures(which is more powerful)The reports will be worked on by the IT team which has complete knowledge of the schema. Thanks |
