==Reports vs List Views==
In terms of displaying data, [[SmartSimple]] offers numerous methods to do so. In particular, '''[[List View Overview|list views]] '''and '''Reports '''are two of the most popular and highly configurable functions. A critical question is therefore ''when ''is it appropriate to use a list view, and when is it appropriate to build a report?For more in-depth information, see our [[List View and Reports - Why?]] page.

Reports are more sensitive because of the following:
* Only 5 criteria are permitted compared to the limitless criteria on a [[List View Overview|list view]]
* Requires more knowledge of SQL and reporting - although if a user is familiar with '''MS Access '''or '''Tableau, '''this is definitely sufficient, as the programs use the same principles
* Less dynamic visibility
