Embracing Database Diversity

Traditional reporting tools often limit you to using just one database. But with Bold Reports, you have the freedom to choose from a range of popular databases like MySQL and PostgreSQL. This flexibility allows you to connect to and fetch data from your organization’s preferred database system.

Imagine you want to use data that requires the scalability of MySQL or the advanced capabilities of PostgreSQL. Bold Reports gives you the ability to tap into the strengths of these databases, so you can pick the one that fits your requirements. It’s like having a toolbox and you can select the right tool for the job at hand.

Report Server

Simplified Setup and Configuration

When you’re setting up a reporting solution, you typically need a report server and a report designer. In the case of SSRS (SQL Server Reporting Services), this often involves establishing a dedicated SQL Server database and configuring intricate connections for the report server. Then, you use a report designer to create and format your reports. This can be a long process, especially if you’re not already using SQL Server. However, Bold Reports simplifies the entire setup and reporting process for popular data sources like MySQL or PostgreSQL.

Report Designer
