Why would I want the Premium Edition?

 

Community Edition includes the source, so why upgrade?

We know what you're thinking. "You've included the source code, so can't I build all of the reports in your Premium catalog?" Yes, you can.

However, the Premium Edition includes over 15 additional reports, charts and KPIs to manage and optimize your Reporting Services environment. In addition to support, your investment of $189 in the Premium Edition is for you if:

  1. Your time is worth more than $5/hour.
    Seriously, it has to be. Have you looked at our reports? Dynamic datasets, graphing and seamless drill-thru. Crafting this entire solution would take about 3 days for a really good developer, perhaps longer. Is yours charging more than $5?
  2. You'd like to support Open Source.
    You're overjoyed that we've delivered administrative functionality that is sorely lacking in SQL Server Reporting Services and consider this a small donation for our efforts and your time saved. You hope that we put this towards some additional enhancement. Aw shucks, we appreciate the sentiment.
  3. You want to learn from us.
    The Reporting Services reports are not only functional, but use some fairly advanced techniques for layout, navigation, graphics and dynamic content. Use our Premium Reports as a template catalog to drive innovative reports for your own line of business analysis.
  4. You'd like to optimize your SQL Server Reporting Services environment
    OK, so the sentiment about open source isn't that intriguing to you. But you do want to get your hands on some analysis of your reporting environment so you can concentrate on the data hogs, and the reports that need to be tamed. Isn't that worth $189?.
