Report Designer is the tool for building complex reports. In Report Builder you can only build simple reports such as a single table, matrix or graph.

The value in report builder is in creating fast ad-hoc reports without having to specify a query first. Report Builder is designed to work with SQL databases, but you have to create a model of your database first. You can do this automatically in Report Manager and then customize your model using Model Designer
