Crystal Reports can be when more customisation of the
report is required. The complexity in creating Crystal
Reports is more than the Complexity of WEBI.
Crystal Reports formatting requires more effort and the
look and feel of export may require some modifications to
fit users requirements.
WEBI can be used for Power Users who can design their own
reports. However The flexibility on customisation of the
reports is limited.
Since WEBI is in Columns and Tabular format, there is not
much formatting effort required.

Crystal report is static report. In crystal Reprots we have
option to use Templates but in Webi Reports there are no
Templates.Crystal Report is windows based report where as
Webi Report is Web based Reprot.

Crystal Reports: Useful for reports with complex layout
formats, dynamic formatting(like decimals, date formats,etc
), dynamic suppression of the report parts(like sections or
stand alone fields)
WebI: Used for ad-hoc reporting. Easy to modify and analyze
the reports on the fly

I am working on Business Objects-reporting side. Database is Teradata. I have two questions here: 1. We will be working only on Infoview on QA environment. Do I need to add ODBC entries for the QA database server on my machine to be able to create/refresh Infoview reports? I will not be using Desk_I or Web_I rich client. 2. Once reports are developed,Admin team would migrate the reports to Production and make these available to business users. The reports are Refresh on Open.
