Mixed Reviews for NAV 2009 R2 Functionality: Navigate Into Success joins fellow bloggers (Waldo and Luc) and finds NAV 2009 R2 a bit odd:

"Let's be fair - it brings so many goodies that I simply love: support for remote users in RTC is a killer, .Net interop is amazing, I even love the small improvements they did to Web services layer, and tons of others. So, what's the problem with R2? Well, for starters, it's buggy. And the things I saw (which aren't minor at all) are (or should be) all big enough so I really wonder how this thing was tested.

"First thing that always bothers me is database creation options. Even though my Computer is installed with Croatian regional settings... collation defaults to Albanian... Even though Albanian and Croatian (and other seven languages in this collation group) obviously share the same Windows code page, their collations aren't nearly the same... Then, NAV 2009 seems to talk well only with English regional settings, and when Croatian regional settings are configured on client computer you can't run reports which have no layout, if they receive date filters."
