Who uses Crystal.NET ? - .NET Framework

Bruce One

Is Crystal reports that comes with VS.NET a very good and complete tool? I have
XtraReports (from DevExpress) licence that we decided to buy eariler then
when Crystal for .NET was very poor. So I can choose between them
(XtraReports or the new Crystal)...

What would be the best one and why ?

Tanks all

We use Xtrareports here aswell... VERY happy with it.
Amazingly easy to create, the report is CODE (is uses a VS designer) so it's
easy to give access to for example a report label to code outside the
report.
and last but not least VERY good support (as with all DevExpress products).
I have tried Crystal Reports for a while but I had serious problems with it.
I must say that I am not using any of the build in .net languages in VS
2005.
I use Chrome plugged into VS2005 as a language.
While Crystal reports seems to have problems with other languages outside C#
and VB.net, XtraReports seems to work fine with any .net language.
