One word: Fantastic. Ok... that's not enough... :) This tool will save me SO much time and I'll probably never exercise all the capabilities.

Why I selected it? because it has a great designer, it is easy of use, it is quite versitile and the manuals are clear and well written. I don't have to be looking for hours for answers on how to do this or that on the Internet... everything is on the manual... One of the best reporter tools I have ever seen. I love it... Thanks! http://andres.jaimes.net

After been evaluating reporting tools to meet the requirements of the new Mexican Electronic Invoice, Fast Report for Delphi was the best tool to support this Mexican law requirement, beside the quality of the tool, the price it's also very attractive.

Very very productive during the product development and implementation. With this product very easy to come to solutions on when creating reports. Big thanks to authors of this very good and not expensive product. Thanks!

The Fast Report for Delphi, it seems very friendly, and can export to formats as important as Excel and PDF, among others, and I know just what! Bring good manuals. It's the best I've seen.

I started programming with C# some month ago and tried making my first reports with Crystal Report, but i never felt happy with this tool. It was so hard to understand, especially for a "beginner". So i started to search for a better report generator and evaluated many different products in the last two weeks. But what shall i say - FR.Net beats them all. With no other tool i was able to make my test reports so fast and easy. It is not longer a pain to write good looking and fast running reports, it's going to become a pleasure till i use FR.Net!

I've used Crystal Reports since back when they used to give away tee shirts with your order. I still have the one with the dog on the back. I consider myself an expert with CR, even doing things it makes nearly impossible to do (like TOCs).
By far the biggest problem with CR that I had was that it only allowed 1 data set as your major report band. If you wanted a report with completely different sections (like a summary section at the end), you had to use subreports.
Fast Reports (FR) is a MUCH, MUCH easier report writer to use than CR. Each design template "page" can represent a different section of your report. Changing the order of the sections of your report is as simple as dragging the tab to the new location.
FR is also smaller, faster, and less expensive that CR and the support is exceptional. Every time I've had a problem, Fast Reports has worked to either find a workaround, or fix the problem in the next release (usually the next day).
I've purchased FR VCL, FR Studio, and FR.NET and each new product is better than the previous one. I especially like the C# .NET programming as the scripting language for FR.NET. No more using one language for my application and a different one for my report script.
I haven't used (or needed) any other reporting tool for the last few years since I've started using Fast Reports.

I had been using FastReport for Delphi for many years. After switching to .NET I really missed my favourite reporting engine.... until one day I came back to visit the FR website to discover that there's now a .NET version! For my special application I rely heavily on the reporting of business objects. Alex from FastReport helped me accomplish my goals with his excellent support! FastReport.NET is by far superior to the other products I've seen out there! It's even a lot better than XtraReports by DevExpress, which I had used before. Keep up the excellent work!!

My first look on .NET language was for reporting thing, Ummmm, I had a very difficult and bad time with other reporting tools ( desing and deploying ), they all lake for simplisty in use, deploy, and end user design, so I decided to design my reports by exporting it to msword, and wait till miracle happen.
Finally Fastreport.net see the light , the first time I try it it was beta , but I just like the way that fastreport deal with the things,
- Design the good looking report with no time.
- Save/Open report files or deal
with your reports as variables of strings
- Super design Interface to suit your Application ( office 2007 style , VS 2005 Style ... )
I just love it ...

Excellent stuff. Keep up the good work. 'Reporting must be fast!' and it is indeed with FastReports. I have compared it with similar packages and FastReports wins the all head-on in every possible aspect. Amazing attractive UI, 10 x faster then any other reporting tool. It's the kind of product that makes the lives of programmers a bit more enthusiastic.
I have chosen your product (FastReports .net) because of it's speed, very atractive User Interface and endless capabilities. Keep up the good work. Maybe not so well advertized as similar packages, but wins head-on in every aspect when compared to them.

给广大中国及亚太用户的一封推荐信： 由于常做BI项目的原因，本人原来一直使用BO做开发，当然，在其他报表方面也接触了不少，包括水晶报表、FR.net、AR、SR、XR等等。 最近的一个B/S架构的数据分析的项目，要求较高的功能及易用性，而且要求与业务系统架构紧密集成，BO在这方面就不行了，因此开始在其他报表中寻找。 由于客户的很多功能都需要用交叉表实现，又需要钻取功能，衡量了一下这些控件，FR.net除了暂不支持B/S架构的的钻取功能外，其他方面的功能都非常出色，水晶报表尽管够强，但开发和使用太不方便，其他报表在复杂交叉表和钻取方面以及最终用户设计方面，都不尽如人意。 在进一步了解FR后，通过简单的修改FR.net源码，实现了B/S架构的超链接，也就基本实现了钻取功能。 轻盈、便捷、易用、调整易源码、快速的技术支持及更新，这些让我今后会更多的使用FR.net来完成我的BI项目。 再次感谢FR.net!

Before I started programming in VS I used Visual Objects with ReportPro as the report generator. Now programming in C #, I needed a new report generator, looked around for a while and came across FR. Promptly ordered and downloaded the wrong version. However, all was taken care of (thank you Dina & Alex). Started with a somewhat involved Invoice Report. Wow, I am impressed. After some initial difficulties, things went very smoothly to the point where I really enjoyed using this Application. Even the documentation was sufficient for me to complete my 1st project. Even though I may have some suggestions for improving the documentation, it is about the best I have seen in a long time. I know I am going to really enjoy making reports. Thanks, Roy.

As a long time (13+ years) Crystal Reports user I can recomend FastReports strongly, I am in the process of converting 1000+ reports designed on Crystal to FastReports, It is fast, rock solid and a feature rich product, integrating very well with Delphi and other products from Embarcadero. Keep on the good job guys!

As a DELPHI user, I was quite satisfied with QuickReport. When DELPHI switched the report component to Rave, I found I did not like Rave at all. I tested FastReport and I was very comfortable with the software. I was also impressed that the price is much lower than Quick. I sent a message to my Delphi mailing list and recommended FastReport to those who are not comfortable with Rave.
