Hi: We've been using MS SSRS for several years now without incident for the same reasons as Andrew.

This was the cheapest option for us since we already owned SSRS and had the report developer skills to do so - however this option requires more SQL knowledge and remedy db schema experience.

What we really want is just the ability to view a Crytal report in the midtier. Both products have a ton more functionalty than we will ever use but CRS appears to be the smaller (cheaper) of the two products. Are there any other alternatives?
