We are designing web based application in .Net 2010 and thinking about using crystal report for designing, viewing and printing reports. Application will be published on server (64-bit) and over 250 users will be accessing this application.
-Do we need to buy 250 licenses or just one license for CR-XI or later version (Not Visual Studio version) ?
-What are the pros and cons of using crystal report which comes with Visual Studio aparat from buying license?
There is only one crystal report designer in my company and we are planning to use crystal report for internal applications. Do we need to buy one license or we need license per view?

SAP Crystal Reports is a professional BI tool that can tremendously help in SAP report creation. It allows users to create visually appealing reports and eliminate the need to rely on other report-writing professionals.
By using SAP Crystal Reports, you can connect to such databases as Oracle or OLAP. Users are able to write a simple report or use a sophisticated or specialized Crystal Reports tool to create reports for the client. SAP Crystal Reports is a perfect tool for helping executives and managers with accountability.
It would not be fair not to mention the soft skills a proper SAP Crystal Reports XI developer should have. A SAP Crystal Reports XI developer is an expert in designing and creating dynamic reports that help businesses visualize and analyze their data to make informed decisions. These could easily be called the most important ones:
Do you have reports that absolutely must look a specific way? Crystal Reports is renowned for its pixel-perfect reporting forms, but not many self-service BI tools nowadays have the same functionality.
As a report developer, your primary responsibility is to ensure that reports are accurate, timely, and easy to understand. However, if a report takes too long to generate, it can cause delays in decision-making and frustrate users. Interviewers ask this question to gauge your ability to optimize report performance, ensuring efficient data retrieval and processing. This speaks to your technical skills and your understanding of the importance of efficient data delivery.
Data confidentiality is a critical aspect of any role dealing with sensitive information, including a report developer. Hiring managers want to ensure that you understand the importance of this responsibility and have practical strategies to protect confidential data. They want to see that you are not only technically competent, but also ethically sound and trustworthy.
Example: I am proficient in data warehousing concepts including ETL processes, OLAP and OLTP systems, star schema, and snowflake schema. I have utilized these skills to design efficient databases that support business intelligence tools and reporting.
Behind this question, the hiring manager is trying to gauge your attention to detail and your commitment to accuracy. As a report developer, your responsibility goes beyond just creating the reports. You need to ensure that the data being used is accurate and the results are reliable. This question helps the interviewer understand your process and your dedication to delivering high-quality, error-free reports.
Hiring managers pose this question to gauge your understanding and application of predictive analytics in report development. Predictive analytics is a key tool in decision-making processes, providing insights into future trends and helping the business make proactive, data-driven decisions. Your ability to use predictive analytics indicates your capacity to provide value-added services beyond just presenting data, enhancing the strategic potential of your reports.
Crystal Reports got its start at Quik Reports when it was originally developed almost three decades ago. The product was developed because at that time, its developers couldn't find a suitable commercial report writer for their accounting software. The company then traded hands a few times before eventually being acquired by SAP in 2007.
Crystal Reports can power pixel-perfect reporting for businesses. This solution enables organizations to combine analysis, business intelligence and decision support based on their data. The tool can analyze multiple data sources and then create visualizations of the data in charts and tables. These charts and tables can be grouped in documents and dashboards which can then be used in static or dynamic format.
There are many business intelligence tools that allow you to create pixel-perfect reports. That's something that you can also do with Crystal Reports, and it's actually something that this tool is pretty great at.
Web Report Designer, featuring an easy to use environment, is one of the latest gems of Telerik Reporting. It has fine-graded drag-and-drop functionality to layout and re-parent all items and sections. It has a toolbox to add a new item instance of all supported types. It has a Report Explorer pane that gives a great view of the report structure, plus it now incorporates the Data Source components into it. And finally, you have a well thought out Properties pane that is much more user-friendly than the one from the Visual Studio IDE that we are all accustomed to. Once done with the necessary edits, you can examine the rendered report using the built-in report preview functionality.
With the latest releases we have invested in the active development of the web report designer and now it is fully functional and on a par with the Desktop report designer.
The Standalone desktop report designer, featuring an easy to use environment, is the heart of Telerik Reporting. It enables both developers and users to create, design, edit, preview, save, export and print ad-hoc reports seamlessly and without any code.
The Visual Studio Report Designer offers a "What You See Is What You Get" (WYSIWYG) canvas for report generation, which allows users and developers to add and edit charts, tables, and other report items, style them, feed them with data and add calculations. Item rotation, in-line editing, report zooming, drag-and-drop data binding and a slew of additional features are also available directly in the report designer. To make the process of accurate positioning, aligning and sizing of report elements easy and intuitive, Telerik Reporting implements some techniques used in drawing software, such as gridlines, item snapping for perfect positioning, on-canvas item dimensions and report panning. Using this designer enables developers to handle events straight into the report definitions for maximum customization of the report.
