What is difference between SQL Report viewer webpart and showing the report via page viewer webpart?

Hello,

We have not yet configured Reporting integration on our SharePoint site. Currently the way we show TFS reports are by adding the page viewer webpart to the SharePoint dashboard and then pointing this webpart to the URL of the respective report.

I would like to know what benefits/features will I get if:

1. If I configure the SharePoint reporting integration?

2. If I use the SQL Report viewer webpart?


From what I have read so far, the only advantage of performing point 1 (configure the SharePoint reporting integration) is that we can then use point 2 (SQL Report viewer webpart). Besides this what are the benefits.. Our only purpose is to show TFS reports on the SharePoint dashboard. Do you think we need to configure the reporting services and use the report viewer webpart? Or the page viewer webpart is sufficient?

You can connect the SQL Report Viewer WebPart to other web parts to communicate, which you cannot do it via page viewer
