SSRS reports on the IPad or IPhone has been improved since SQL 2012 SP1

Almost 2 years ago I wrote a blogpost about SQL Server Reporting Service (SSRS) Reports on the IPad or IPhone. I was the first time you could display SSRS reports on the IPad. Unfortunatly not everything was rendered in a correct way. In SQL Server 2012 SP1 this has been improved.

Here is an example of a report in SQL 2008 R2



 Here is an example of the same report in SQL 2012 SP1

As you can see, the strange Blue Question marks are gone.

Starting with SQL 2012 Service Pack 1 (SP1), Reporting Services supports viewing and basic interactivity with reports on Apple iOS devices like IPad en Iphone, with the Apple Safari browser.
Viewing reports in Report Manager (http://myserver/reportserver) is not suppported. You need to start the reports from the report server via http://myserver.reports. Here you can browse to the report and tape the report name to open the report. After opening the report yiu can see that the Export to PDF and TIFF file is supported. More information about the support for Apple iOS devices on SSRS can be found here.
For a video of using SSRS on your Ipad please see:

Exact Synergy Enterprise supports SQL Server 2008 as of product update 241

As of 30 June 2009, Exact Synergy Enterprise product update 241 is general available. In this product update SQL Server 2008 is supported. Exact is selling this new version of SQL Server. Please contact your local Exact office or reseller. If you want to have a look at the unique selling points of SQL Server 2008, please have a look at the overview on the Microsoft website. For an overview of technical documentation for SQL Server 2008, please refer to the Books Online.

SQL Server 2008 licenses grant customers the right to downgrade, which means that customers wanting to use SQL Server 2005 can still do so when purchasing SQL Server 2008 licenses. The upgrade to SQL Server 2008 can then take place at their own convenience. So if you are currently using SQL 2000, you can buy SQL 2008 instead of SQL 2005. If one of your applications does not support SQL 2008 at this moment, you are allowed to install SQL 2005.
