It has multiple options for the generation of multiple indicators in the business process. > > **Cons**: The technical support is quite slow, it is the only thing that I would ask you to improve. ----- ### "Useful Tool once you know how to use it" — 4.0/5 > **Christina** | *March 20, 2019* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Crystal Reports lets you create custom reports that allows you to extract data that you need. It is a great tool to drill down to a certain level when you have a large pool of data. I love the fact that you can schedule Crystal Reports through BI, and have them emailed or saved to a network folder. > > **Cons**: It isn't always intuitive. Creating formulas can be tricky and some of the functions and operators don't work as you would logically expect them to. Creating a report can be very time consuming. > > I use Crystal Reports a ton. I have tons of reports scheduled to provide end users with statistics and patient data. It makes everyone's jobs easier. ----- ### "SAP Crystal Reports are great for financial and ad hoc reporting" — 3.0/5 > **Curt** | *February 14, 2023* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: The finance teams I've worked with over the years rely heavy on Crystal. It provides them everything they need. It is also great for quick/dirty ad hoc reporting. When someone needs an answer, Crystal is helpful in delivering results quickly. It also provides great pixel-perfect printing (which many competitors do not). > > **Cons**: Crystal has its place in the business intelligence world, but tools like Power BI and Tableau are much more teachable and much more visually compelling. > > Overall, I've had a fine experience with Crystal. It is somewhat antiquated when it comes to visual BI, but its great for printing - which so many customers still demand. ----- ### "Daily user of Crystal Reports" — 4.0/5 > **Marie** | *May 10, 2018* > > **Pros**: I am the administrator of our ERP system which supports Crystal Reports. I use it primarily for modifying reports and creating labels. Most of my learning has been self taught. It's very easy to use and has great resources. > > **Cons**: The only issues I have had is trying to figure out which barcode fonts I need to use. Once I figure it out though it's very easy. ----- ### "SAP Crystal Reports is the most important tool" — 5.0/5 > **NELSON** | *May 2, 2018* | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: SAP Crystal Reports is the most important tool to know your results in each transaction, to verify the health of your organization. > > **Cons**: I don't have cons. SAP Crystal Reports is easy deploy any kind of reports inserting graph on the same report. I like SAP Crystal Reports. ----- Page: 1 / 8\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.ca/software/125403/sap-crystal-reports?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.ca/software/125403/sap-crystal-reports) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
