Mark Donohoe, Intuisoft on Flexibility of ActiveReports

“Working with ActiveReports, I’ve come to consider the process of report generation more like architecting a system. We’re able to treat separate reports, or sections of reports, as Lego pieces, so users can snap them together in any order they want. We build some pretty sophisticated reporting capabilities into our reporting engines--for example, advanced layout features, and the ability to process data programmatically as the report executes--and competitive products just can’t do what we need. In contrast, ActiveReports has opened up the doors to a tremendous range of possibilities.”

“As a developer, I really appreciate the luxury of working with a component as flexible as ActiveReports. We were trying to build in some pretty advanced reporting capabilities--for example, advanced layout features, and the ability to process data programmatically as the report executes--and competitive products just didn’t couldn’t do that.”
