We have just released the free KNIME Report Designer for KNIME, the proven user-friendly and comprehensive open-source analytics platform.

You can now use KNIME's powerful workflow editor to load, preprocess, transform and analyze your data, and the Report Designer plug-in to create sophisticated reports including individually formatted charts, tables and other data overviews. KNIME Report Designer is based on BIRT, the Business and Reporting Tools Eclipse project, therefore enabling access to the wealth of reporting tools from this environment.

Details on KNIME Report Designer can be found on the new reporting website. You can download KNIME 2.1.1 combined with the Report Designer or if you want to add the Report Designer functionality to an existing KNIME installation, please upgrade to KNIME 2.1.1. and then follow the update instructions. To get you started on KNIME Report Designer you can find a Quickstart Guide as well as a number of movies providing you with an introduction to the use of KNIME Report Designer.
