It contains the following tools: SQL Server Analysis Services (SSAS)SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS)PerformancePoint Services (PPS) which was added as a free service in Microsoft Office SharePoint 2010 More information http://www.microsoftbiconsultant.com/msbi.aspx Here you will get to know about SSRS vs Crysal Reports. http://www.reportsyouneed.com/ssrs-vs-crystal1/http://www.bi-dw.info/crystal-reports-vs-reporting-services.htmhttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/4814376/ssrs-vs-crystal-reportsThanks Manish Please use Marked as Answer if my post solved your problem and use Vote As Helpful if a post was useful.

Hi Sabi, As Manish said that MS BI isw a suite and SSRS and Crystal report are reporting tools, the differnece between SSRS an Crystal reports as: the Crystal report is a product of Bussiness Object(SAP) and SSRS is a product of Microsoft. In order to deploy the crystal report on the web we need to have RAS Server(Reporting application server) and for development of the report, we need to use Crystal report (also we can create reports using VS Studio 2008). In SSRS, we can develope the reports using Visual studio and deploy through the Microsoft reporting services. These are links which provide some useful information about SSRS and Crystal reports: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/aspnet/CrystalReportingPart2.aspx http://www.kenhamady.com/ssrscomp.pdf http://www.bi-dw.info/crystal-reports-vs-reporting-services.htm for difference between them, please check: http://www.devx.com/codemag/Article/36397 http://www.crystalreportsbook.com/SSRSandCR_Conclusion.asp Regards Avanish T
