SQL Server "Denali" Crescent

Recently came back from a Users Group session and we were talking about SQL Server "Denali" Crescent.

SQL Server has changed the way people do every day reporting now. Crescent is packaged with SQL Server "Denali" and attaches to Sharepoint 2010. Crescent allows a user to simply click on a "report" and allows them to configure the report on the page itself. Crescent is taken from Excel 2010's PowerPivot and allows the user to create charts and graphs for reporting purposes. A very neat feature is that it allows the user to "copy" the report created in crescent and attach it to Excel or PowerPoint. Picture now the ability to have a storyboard (moving real time graphs) in a sales PowerPoint presentation. For more information I suggest you to google "Crescent" and watch the youtube presentation on the subject.
