We are consdering getting SDK for the extra administation capabilities that it supposedly offers. Can you please advise if it offers the following:

1- Report statistics (i.e: how many times a report was run, who used it? when it was used last, etc....)

2- Is this possible to use SDK to get a list of users and which group each user belongs to..?

3- Get a list currently logged on users..!!?

4- What else can it be used for..?

Any feedback is greatly apreciated....

Hi,
As to the statistics - you might find Audit DB and/or log files enough for you. It so, it might be easies to use than SDK.
Showing all group/roles per user is achieveble. Create a loop that retrieve all the users in each group/role and store all those relationships in some container. Afterwards restore the information from there, sorted by user.
