I've used GQL from Andyne (Phone: 613.548.4355) and have had good luck and enthusiastic comments from end users. GQL requires and administration to set up an ER model of the database and then users can query actual live data, set up their own reports.

Other major end user tools are from Business Objects, Mountain View CA and IQ from IQ Software, Atlanta GA.

On Oracle Report Writers, I don't think that they were designed by humans as we know them.
