Overall Satisfaction with SAP Crystal Reports

Crystal Reports was used to deliver reports to clients about data relating to transportation systems. The reports were typically static in format, but numerous and regular, and were good candidates for automation. Each system had a large number of data points to report on. It was implemented by our organization, on behalf of our clients.
  • Report scheduling - flexibility and consistency in delivery
  • Report visualization - simple but effective.
  • Report delivery - reliable
  • Ease of set-up - engineering took a while to hook it up
  • Configuration - generally, the reports were not something folks could actually go in and modify
It is well suited in situations where the set-up is being done by a different party than the group receiving the reports. It is not appropriate for ad hoc analysis or reports for public presentation.
