Depends on whether you want the data to be easily reusable or not. Is there no need for any summarisation of the data on these reports? Is the layout of these reports standardised in any way?
Mail merge isn't exactly an advanced feature, all you need is a basic Excel spreadsheet containing the data you want to insert. Takes 10 minutes or less to teach someone how to use it.
