Silverlight Support
Telerik Reporting is the first reporting product to offer native support for Silverlight projects with its Silverlight Report Viewer. By utilizing Telerik Reporting's XAML rendering extension, the Telerik Report WCF Service, and RadControls for Silverlight, it guarantees the same look and feel of your reports. True Printing from Silverlight applications is also supported. Support for Microsoft Expression Blend 3+ and VS2010 design-time is provided out-of-the-box.
Requirements:
WPF Support
Telerik Reporting provides support for WPF applications with its WPF Report Viewer. By utilizing Telerik Reporting's XAML rendering engine, and RadControls for WPF, it guarantees the same look and feel of your reports. Support for Microsoft Expression Blend 3+ and VS2010 design-time is provided out-of-the-box.
Requirements:
ASP.NET AJAX Support
For added swiftness, Telerik Reporting communicates with the web report server by using Ajax calls. This way only data that need to be displayed is fetched, without burdening the server. This adds desktop-like feeling to the web and users find the application to be more responsive and intuitive.
Ajax can be used to hide/show the WebViewer, to page through reports, or to filter data via report parameters. Both Microsoft’s ASP.NET AJAX and Telerik’s own RadAjax are supported out-of-the-box. No additional installations are needed to use ASP.NET Ajax.
Windows Forms Support
The Windows Forms Report Viewer is designed to render Telerik Reports within Windows Forms applications. It uses the same rendering engine as the other viewers, which guarantees that you will always get the same look and feel of your reports, regardless of theenvironment. The WinForms Viewer is built-in and no additional installations are needed to use it.

Browser Support
Telerik is the pioneer in offering cross-browser compatible components for ASP.NET. This has been, is and will remain a top priority for the company. If adding new features is difficult, just think about doing so while maintaining cross-browser compatibility. This requires careful design work, extensive testing and very deep understanding of the intricacies of all platforms (browsers).
