ReportServer Community Edition is a business intelligence platform that brings together different reporting technologies within a central environment. It allows organisations to provide access to business information without requiring everyone to work directly with database queries or separate reporting tools.
The software supports conventional formatted reports as well as more flexible approaches to exploring data. Its dynamic lists allow users to select information, adjust the presentation and produce customised reports suited to their requirements.
ReportServer is particularly useful for organisations working with existing JasperReports or Eclipse BIRT reports. Its browser-based interface also provides facilities for managing permissions, scheduling report execution and sharing information with colleagues.
This is free and open source software.
