I have a question about SSRS and Crystal Reports. I am a student, and I am thinking about a career as a reports developer. I've noticed that there are plenty of jobs for Crystal Report developers. I am familiar with SSRS, and I will soon have a lot of experience using it. However, I have never used Crystal Reports.
Is Crystal Reports significantly different from SSRS, or are they essentially the same program? If I know SSRS, would it be difficult to learn Crystal Reports?

Crystal Reports is deprecated BI software (2013 last updated) that has not been updated since 2013 and it has a significantly high TCO bundled into Business Objects and CAL cost while SSRS is free.
