I work for a relatively small company and i'm responsible for all aspects of reporting. I'm tired of manually distributing them and have gotten the OK to go with a distribution program, like CUT from Millet, or CRD, or something else. There are a few more than i expected. Here is my set up. I have a Laptop with CR XI (Developer) installed. I'm the only one that has, and knows how to use, Crystal. I'm looking at Distributing daily, weekly, and a few monthly reports in PDF format, via email. I can't install anything on a server because we are maxed there.
Can Anyone recommend a program for this? Does anyone have any experience with one and willing to give feedback. I pretty much have theone i want picked out, but am looking for further input. Also, i'm not a programmer or a developer, or a server/network guy, but i'm decent at a keyboard. Keep that in mind please.

Thanks for your help...
 
Hi,
We have just started using Visual CUT


and find it great to use.
We have a special need to burst reports ( so far, as many as 100 individual reports from 1 master) and it works exactly as advertised..It will Email like you need and, for its cost, nothing I have seen compares to it..
The thing I like most is the ability to run it from a Windows .cmd ( batch) file and use Window's scheduler to run it off-hours..

Even though we have a large and complex Business Objects Enterprise setup, the bursting ( combined, when needed, with Email) is only possible using this tool.
