I'm assigned the task to review and recommend a reporting tool for our project. Since I had virtually no experience with reporting before, just did some research and came down with two choices: Crystal Reports and StyleReport. The development will be done in Java so the tool must provide a Java api.
Functionality wise StyleReport is definitely superior, bug Crystal seems to be around longer and have more books and other information. One major problem with using Crystal is that rather lacking Java api, which is very new and thin. Like to see if any one had experience using Crystal's java api in a large scale reporting server environment, and what's the result.
Any feedback would be appreciated!I have limited experience with crystal's new java api so can't offer much help there, but have worked with stylereport for a while and highly recommend it. it is easily the most powerful reporting tool on the market. Just saw their 7.0 and a lots of cool new features. We run a reporting server on linux with stylereport running in the same web app, and it worked out great so far.
