That's why we created the Windward Report Engine. Companies need a powerful, secure enterprise-level .NET reporting engine to back their critical reporting and document generation systems.
The Windward Engine installs easily, runs on one or more servers as part of your server-based application, and can easily produce hundreds of thousands of reports per day on a single server. The server is a pure .NET product (and also is available as pure Java).
Even better news: When combined with the Windward report design tools AutoTag and AutoTag Max, users design, schedule and run reports from within Microsoft Office. That means you can turn over reporting to the business group and get back to more interesting work.
Our customers are using Windward in a number of different ways. Some use it for designing, generating and distributing reports such as invoices, inventory tallies, financial statements, insurance policies, customer account summaries, product usage reports, certificates and more. Others use it for doc gen and mail merge to automatically produce letters, forms and contacts.
That's the what. Here's the how.
When used in conjunction with AutoTag or AutoTag Max, the Windward Reports Engine immediately begins to save you money. One of the biggest expenses in creating reports correlates to the design tool's ease-of-use. AutoTag and AutoTag Max allow users to design templates in Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint, and there's little learning curve because most professionals already know how to use Office. Our customers have found that creating and revising reports is at least 10 times faster than with other reporting systems.
Plus, Windward Reports makes data layout and source mapping trivial. You don't need to learn complicated code, because wizards and drag-and-drop functionality from within Microsoft Office make it easy to put tags, or data placeholders, into templates. The Windward Engine handles a variety of data sources, including SQL databases, XML files, and Excel spreadsheets. You can run reports with the click of a button, and you can produce documents in a wide array of outputs.
To sum it up:
