Why Choose

For End-Users: Intuitive Standalone End-User Report Designer

The Telerik Report Designer empowers report authors with creating, editing and sharing ad-hoc reports. It is a desktop client tool which uses the latest UI standards to assist end-users with the process of creating reports and analyzing data. It is packaged as a single EXE file, which does not require installation.

For Developers: Create Reports with Ease in Visual Studio

Telerik Reporting was the first reporting tool on the market to introduce an innovative WYSIWYG design surface in Visual Studio .NET by implementing techniques used in drawing software. The surface simulates graph paper and represents the actual layout of the report elements as they would appear on printed paper. With the help of the numerous wizards the process of creating reports is extremely intuitive, with almost no learning involved.

Use Any Data Source

Since Telerik Reporting depends on standard .NET objects, you can bind it to any data source: all ADO.NET providers (SQL Server, MySQL, Oracle, OLE DB), Business Objects, MS Access, XML, Web Services, and even to a file - there are no limits whatsoever.

Deploy Reports to Web, Desktop, and Cloud

Telerik Reporting offers Silverlight, WPF, Windows Forms and ASP.NET report viewers and guarantees the same look for your reports in all platforms. The viewers help you deliver Telerik reports to any business application, be it a web-based application (Silverlight, ASP.NET, MVC), desktop application (WPF, Windows Forms), or cloud (Windows Azure).

Excellent Data Presentation and Analysis

Telerik Reporting gives you the presentation tools to display data so that you can focus on what's important: analysis and knowledge. Easy to set up charts, cross tabs, and aggregates provide you with the ultimate tool for data analysis. You also have full control over the data formatting and its management: using conditional formatting, sorting, filtering, and even grouping has never been easier and requires no code!

Interactive Reports for Probing Data

Interactive reports give end-users the freedom to explore data in a visual and interactive way and to gain insight on how aggregates were derived, what does each high-level number mean, and view the raw data pertaining to a high level concept. The interactivity features are available in all report viewers and designers.

Export Reports to 20+ Formats

Regardless of your business requirements, chances are that Telerik Reporting supports the export format of your choice: PDF, Excel 97-2010, Word, PowerPoint, RTF, CSV, MHTML, and all image and graphic formats supported by GDI+ (JPEG, PNG, GIF, BMP, TIFF, etc.)

Convert and Reuse Existing Reports

There is no need to recreate your existing reports from scratch, because they can be reused with the help of the automatic Report Converter Wizard, which will convert Crystal Reports, XtraReports, and Active Reports* to any version of Telerik Reporting.
