We would like to use the reporting module to develop a real-time log viewer, but the module is not licensed until we purchase it. Is there a way we can try it to see if what we would like to do will work? Or are we stuck purchasing in order to make a determination?

No, you can install the reporting module and it comes with a 2 hour trial period just like the rest of Ignition. It just has a watermark but it will work.
