Should I use Telerik Report

[Bruce Haan]

I've recently purchased the Telerik radtools software, which I like very much, and now I'm considering using the report tools.  This might be a biased forum but how does the Telerik Reporting software compare to Crystal?  I seem to run into frequesnt problems with Crystal on my web applications and have never really liked using it.  Should I abandon Crystal and get Telerik?  What are the benefits of switching?

Thanks,
Bruce

Although both Crystal Reports and Telerik Reporting have one common purpose and look pretty similar they are based on different concepts and have different pros and cons that you should always have in mind when choosing the tool that would best fit your needs. Describing the various differences and similarities would take considerable amount of time and according to me is pointless. My suggestion is to install the Telerik Reporting on your machine and test whether it fits your needs and you would know for sure whether you enjoy working with it or not.

Cheers!
