Yurbi compared to Crystal Reports

Yurbi offers a straightforward and feature-rich business intelligence solution, perfect for business users with limited technical expertise.

Yurbi’s simple architecture and ease of multi-tenant operations make it an excellent choice for businesses looking for low-maintenance solutions. While Crystal Reports excels in producing pixel-perfect reports and templates from data sources, it is a legacy tool that lacks many features of modern web-based BI tools and often requires highly skilled developers for setup and customization, adding to its complexity and cost.

For those who value modern features like dynamic security, interactive dashboards, mobile interfaces, and predictability, Yurbi is a compelling alternative.

Yurbi provides a clear and affordable pricing model with a flat fee of $24,000 per year. This all-inclusive cost covers all your embedded BI needs, ensuring no surprise expenses as your business grows. While Crystal Reports has a low initial software cost, it involves high operational costs due to the need for specialized resources to develop and maintain reports.

With Yurbi, you get a feature-rich solution that includes full customer support within the annual fee. This simplicity not only helps manage your budget but also provides advanced features such as dynamic security, interactive dashboards, mobile interfaces, and modern capabilities that Crystal Reports lacks.
