    Xcelsius allows for dynamic dashboards and what-if scenarios, connecting to various data sources beyond just Excel. While Webi and Crystal Reports are reporting tools that can handle large data and output to standard formats, Xcelsius offers a unique Flash format and buffered data to reduce server hits. However, Xcelsius requires more groundwork to prepare data for charts and does not perform as well with large datasets.

    What is the diff b/w BO webi reports, crystal reports and xcelsius ?

    The Data source for Xcelsius is not limited to excel, it can fetch data through some
    data connectivity components like Web service, Live Office connection, SAP
    connection, many more......

    The main difference between teh Webi, CR and Xcelsius is Webi and CR are reporting
    tools and Xcelsius is a Dynamic Dashboard tool where we can provide a What-If
    scenario to the end-user.

    The output of the reports in Webi and CR are limited to pdf, word etc.. but Xcelsius
    gives output as all the above mentioned formats and a unique format .swf (a flash file).

    In Webi and CR we can find the page refresh rate where as in Xcelsius we have
    buffered data. The advantage with this is unecessary hits to the server may be
    reduced.

    Both Webi and CR cant competate Xcelsius in Look and Feel. Xcelsius has some rich
    features and some color blends.

    Webi and CR can hold huge data, but Xcelsius cannot hold bulk data. At runtime it
    shows the performance degrades and sometimes throws action script errors.

    There will be no ground work in Webi and CR in making data for charts but where as in
    Xcelsius we have to do lots and lots of ground work in the Excel sheet.

    The main point: Through Xcelsius we can import data from Webi and CR through Live
    Office connector.
