I think you will find savvy computer users will find this fairly easy to use. 
our best bet would be to check out 'Building Queries'  video on U2 Dev Zone

 DataVu (the free Query and paid Report & Dashboard products) are

 Is there a comparison chart of DataVu vs. ODBC?

 I am planning on investigating both for reporting purposes, but, I was 
 just curious if there was anything out there that listed the pros and
