Crystal Reports Replacement
Where I work, we're currently using Crystal Reports for our .NET projects. However, we frequently make changes to stored procedures, and Crystal's method of re-creating the datasets, then pulling over the stored procedures, removing the automatically added columns and repairing the existing columns is proving incredibly tiresome. (If the description is a little dodgy, it's because I have little experience with Crystal and reports in general - I work mostly on the technical implementation and database side of things.) Crystal themselves have proved ineffective in helping at all (Our "free support credits" were used up working around a bug in their installer set up).
So, my question is, what alternatives to Crystal Reports would you guys suggest? Or is there perhaps an easier way of making Crystal behave itself when making minor changes to stored procedures (I'm talking moving, renaming columns here)? Thanks. :)

Cognos is another big BI product - don't know much about it unfortunately other than I'll likely start working with it this year
