crystal reports -interesting, doesnt seem black and white as to what its all about. does it allow reps to input data into the rport templates?
I think the database will be the best idea,,, now to find someone to do it
The reports are a bunch of words.

Crystal reports is more aimed at getting data OUT of a data source rather than putting data IN to a data source.
A database application will probably be best, a single web based solution ideal for remote workers failing that you can use a Microsoft Access front end/back end setup (1 database to hold the data tables and 1 to contain forms for inputting data)

Look into ASP.NET, there are free tools available for development with (Express Editions) and SQL Server Express to store the data. The Express development kit is pretty much WYSIWYG with wizards to do everything. Its not rocket science but at least then you will know where the system is up to should future dev be required.

IIS is a lot better than it was. Security comes down to how you configure the network etc. If you dont want to open up the internet server to the rest of the world you can look to use VPN connections and keep it internal and encrypted

I have no plans on doing that, I have a webhost with cpanel, I plan on using that if at all possible?Nothing is ever 100% secure
