Design your document once — deliver it however each recipient needs it.
What's New in This Release
This release focuses on breadth of output and on operating the engine safely in real environments.
PowerPoint (PPTX) Output
A single template now produces seven formats: PDF, Word (DOCX), Excel (XLSX), PowerPoint (PPTX), HTML, RTF and ODT. Design once, deliver however each recipient needs it.
PDF Password Protection
Sensitive output — payslips, financial statements, private certificates — can now be password-protected at export, so the document itself is secured.
Built-in File Console
A browser UI to manage templates, assets, generated reports, logs and extension jars — without shell access to the server. Protected by its own keys and IP locked.
Deploy Your Way
Run the standalone application, or drop the WAR into Apache Tomcat 9.x. Either way it stays completely self-hosted.
Offline, Per-Server Licensing
License keys are verified fully offline and bound per server — no phone-home — which makes the engine viable even in air-gapped deployments.
Enterprise Capabilities
Built on JasperReports — the same reporting engine trusted by enterprises worldwide for over two decades. What you're paying for isn't the engine; it's everything around it that would otherwise take your team weeks to build.
No DB Connectivity
The engine does not require direct database access. Data is passed securely via JSON payload.
Multi-Format Output
Export to PDF, Word (DOCX), Excel (XLSX), PowerPoint (PPTX), HTML, ODT, and RTF — 7 formats from a single template, more than most Oracle APEX reporting tools on the market.
Java Webservice
A lightweight Java webservice that runs independently, ensuring high performance and stability.
Jasper Libraries
Built using robust JasperReports libraries (not JasperServer) for efficient report generation.
Data Sovereignty
Your data never leaves your premise. Complete control over sensitive information.
Secure Transport
Supports full encryption during data transport, ensuring enterprise-grade security.

What Our Customers Say
We used to spend weeks designing a single print output in PL/SQL — page breaks meant separate buttons and duplicated code, and conditional image printing was a nightmare. Since switching to ReportFactory, the same reports take a few hours to build, with pixel-perfect PDF, Word, and Excel output. It's simply not comparable to what we were doing before, in performance or cost."
