"Design Docs and Database Links for Effortless Bulk Report & Admit Card Generation"

5/5

What do you like best about SAP Crystal Reports?

BEST THING IS WE CAN DESIGN THE DOC AND CONNECT IT WITH LIVE DATABASE, I USE IT FOR REPORT CARDS AND CONSOLIDATES,

FROM DESIGNING THE REPORT CARD AND THE ADDING DATABASE CONNECTIONS TO FETCH THE REQUIRED FIELDS IN THE FILE, THIS HELPS A LOT.

I ALSO USE IT TO GENERATE BULK ADMIT CARD, SIMPLY CREATE ONE DESIGN, LINK DATABASE, AUTOMATICALLY IT GETS THE DATA AND ONE BEST THING IS ABOUT THE FILTERS, WE HAVE N NUMBER OF FILTERS LIKE CL,SEC,ADNO ETC (ACC TO DB FIELDS), ON THE OTHER HAND MAKING FORMULAS IN BASIC SYNTAX AND CRYSTAL SYNTAK IS VERY EASY, I WRITE FORMULE IN VISUAL BASICS, NO ALTERNATIVE FOR THIS SOFTWARE, ITS LIKE SINGLE SOFTWARE TO GET MULTIPLE NEEDS DONE.

What do you dislike about SAP Crystal Reports?

I USE CRYSTAL REPORTS XI RELEASE 2, I FEEL AUTO SAVE OPTION SHOULD BE THERE, IT MIGHT BE THERE IN NEWER VERSION, I M NOT SURE BUT ITS VERY MUCH REQUIRED. MANY TIMES SOFTWARE MAY HANG DUE TO MULTIPLE REASONS LIKE SYSTEM CONFIGUARATION, DATA SHOULD BE SAVED , AUTO SAVE SHOULD BE THERE Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is SAP Crystal Reports solving and how is that benefiting you?

SINCE I MAKE REPORT CARDS,CONSOLIDATES & ADMIT CARDS IN THIS SOFTWARE, IT HELPS A LOT TO SAVE TIME, CREATE ONE TIME DESIGN,LINK DB AND THEN PRINT IN BULK.

EVEN IF WE WANT TO ADD ANOTHER DATABASE JUST COPY AND ADD NEW, SUPER EASY AND SAVES TIME. NOT ONLY TIME , THE WORK PREVIOUSLY WHICH WAS REQUIRED 2-3 PEOPLES TO COMPLETE BY MAKING MANUAL RC'S, THIS SOFTWARE MADE IT EASY FOR 1 PERSON ONLY TO USE,THIS HELPS IN SAVING MONEY TOO.

AND FILTERING IS SOO SOO MUCH EASY AND GOOD, YOU CAN FILTER DATA ON ANY OF THE DB FIELD AVAILABLE, THIS HELPS A LOT TO SAVE TIME, FOR FILTERS(SELECT EXPERT) I GIVE 10/10. VERY HELPFULL, TIME SAVING AND COST SAVING Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
