ASP.NET Built-In Report Creator / Viewer

I've been using Telerik Reporting for years, and they have changed their controls to no longer support what I have, so since I have to do a major update anyway, I was wanting to look into what is built into asp.net by default.

Can someone provide me information on what that is and where to find examples and demos? I googled it, but find all kinds of vendor results trying to sell me their reporting platforms.

I'm talking about a reporting tool with a pager, exporting to PDF, etc. If you don't know what I'm talking about, please don't respond.

Thanks!

you can try search for Report Viewer.

you can get it from the NuGet Package Manager

try search for:

Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WebForms
https://www.nuget.org/packages/Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportViewerControl.WebForms/

it got feature to export report to pdf

YOu are probably looking for SqlServer Reporting Services, (you need SQL server tho), Microsoft site has some examples in its download page

https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/ca9677fc-fe47-4a91-8a5a-171eb5b74891/report-builder-examples-and-demos?forum=sqlreportingservices

and yes report builder is capable of exporting to many formats, but be prepared to do a little more job than with telerik, but it does have everything you need.

I see no demos or screenshots of reports on either of those two links you provided.

I will give credit for whoever sends me to demos and tutorials.
