Want to know more about SSDT?


I personally think Microsoft made a mess of this SSDT installation. It's really more confusion than anything else. The SSDT download is included as a project type with a name that can be stored. It's either a project or not a project. if it is it should not be a download.
In the shell that downloads with SQL Server 2012 Enterprise (Eval) which is supposed to have all features:

So, What does Vs2012 Ultimate have by way of BI?
There is suddenly a Reports Application (I have not tried)
Of course there are the Report Viewer Controls you can use (Windows and Web)
A Sql Server Database Project template (this I suspect is part of the SSDT as originally meant)
As you pointed out you need both SSDT as well as VS2012 Pro and above.
