User Testimonials
	Crystal POS	Jet Reports
Likelihood to Recommend	Crystal No answers on this topic	Insightsoftware, Inc Jet Reports is better suited if you have a specific population set you are looking at and less suited when querying or summing large pools or data, records, etc. I use a combination of Jet & SQL syntax when performing the latter because it allows me to harness the speed of our SQL server. Jet allows more for more customization when bodes better for users. Incentivized Grant Nelson, CPA Accounting Manager Read full review
