(ISF) Xcelsius Engage vs. SSRS (oh it's on, baby!)

I am looking to export a bunch of data from Survey Monkey into a program that will let me (1) generate charts; (2) publish the charts to the web; (3) let Web site visitors manipulate the charts (do their own filters, sorts, searches, etc.); (4) creates geographical charts (darker colors for regions with more youth programs, etc.)

I've looked at a bunch of options (SPSS, SSRS, Dundas, Crystal Reports, Xcelsius Engage, Excel, Google Charts API, Google Maps API, Pentaho), and I think I've narrowed it down to the top two competitors:

Xcelsius Engage (http://www.businessobjects.com/product/catalog/xcelsius_engage/) Sql Server Reporting Services (using report builder) (http://www.microsoft.com/sql/technologies/reporting/default.mspx)

In the matter of Xcelsius Engage vs. SSRS, has the jury reached a verdict?

Or should I be considering other options?
