What are your thoughts on Sql Server Reporting Services? I have never been real happy with Cyrstal, no particular reason. I just never felt comfortable or productive with it. So far I am enjoying working with SSRS but I don't have a whole lot of time into it yet. Bill, SSRS has most (but not all) of the functionality of CR (and in fairness, SSRS has a bell/whistle or two that CR doesn't have).
Many times, the general architecture and licensing issues and deployment requirements (to name a few) will be big factors in driving whether a company uses SSRS or CR.
