# Bold Reports Last Updated: 2026-10-01 Full Reference: https://www.boldreports.com/llms-full.txt Bold Reports by Syncfusion is RDL-compatible enterprise reporting software for web, SaaS, and enterprise applications. Teams use it to build pixel-perfect paginated reports, migrate SSRS and Crystal Reports without rebuilding them, and embed reporting into their own apps with SDKs for React, Angular, Blazor, JavaScript, and .NET. It runs as a Cloud Edition, a Managed Private Cloud, or an On-Premises Edition, all on the same reporting engine. Bold Reports includes a web Report Designer, Report Viewer, Report Writer, and a Standalone Report Designer, plus Bold Data Hub for data preparation. It supports self-service and embedded reporting, multi-tenant and white-label deployments, and scheduled report delivery. ## Homepage - [Bold Reports homepage](https://www.boldreports.com/): Overview of the platform, deployment options, migration paths, and embedded reporting. ## AI Crawler & Training Directives User-agent: * AI-Training: Disallow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: GPTBot AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: OAI-SearchBot AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: ChatGPT-User AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: ClaudeBot AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: Claude-User AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: Claude-SearchBot AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: PerplexityBot AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: Perplexity-User AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: Google-Extended AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: Bingbot AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required User-agent: meta-externalagent AI-Training: Allow AI-Generation: Allow AI-Summarization: Allow AI-Crawling: Allow AI-Attribution: Required ## Positioning: three ways teams use Bold Reports - [Migrate from Crystal Reports](https://www.boldreports.com/crystal-reports-migration/): SAP's mainstream maintenance for Crystal Reports 2020 ends in December 2026. Bold Reports converts .rpt files to RDL, one at a time or in bulk, and moves them onto a modern browser-based engine with help from a migration team for complex reports. - [Migrate from SSRS](https://www.boldreports.com/ssrs-migration/): Bold Reports reads RDL and RDLC natively, the same format SSRS uses, so most existing SSRS reports open and render with little or no rework. SQL Server 2025 shipped without SSRS, which makes this a practical time to move. - [Build or embed new reports](https://www.boldreports.com/embedded-reporting/): Embed reports into React, Angular, Blazor, JavaScript, and .NET apps using REST APIs, SDKs, and embeddable viewers, with white-label and multi-tenant support built in.

This is the file format itself, not a converter. - 25+ data connectors, including Snowflake and Redshift, plus databases, warehouses, REST APIs, and files. - Deploys on Windows, Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, and Azure, in the cloud, on-premises, or hybrid. - Security: OAuth 2.0, OpenID Connect, JWT, Active Directory, role-based access control, and row-level security. - Compliance: GDPR, HIPAA, and SOC 2 Type 2. - Exports to PDF, Excel, Word, and more, with scheduled delivery. -
