SAP Crystal Reports is a reporting solution that gives the user the possibility to create professional reports based upon multiple data sources which can be accessed by amongst others ODBC data connections.
The reports can be exported to all known popular data formats and can be interactive integrated into portals and Microsoft Office documents by the use of applications like .NET, Java and COM applications.
Crystal Reports focuses more on so called "operational reporting” and in its origin remains a report writer, where Webintelligence is more end-user oriented BI.
