[Vtigercrm-developers] vtigerbi: Pentaho-vtigerCRM integration

[Joe Bordes]

For me BIRT is more user friendly, easier to get what you want done. The 
problem with BIRT are the parameters, they have to be past in by a page 
you have constructed before hand and that's additional work that isn't 
nice to do. PRD has solved this problem with embedded parameters, but 
PRD requires (at least to my limited knowledge) user validation which 
BIRT doesn't need. So, as usual, each has it's pros and cons.

I went from PRD to BIRT out of frustration, and then back to PRD as 
things got better and I started to understand how it works.

I would recommend BIRT
