If you manage projects with GanttPRO, you now have a new way to slice your data. The platform's March 2026 release adds tabular reports to its existing graphical options. The tables cover S-curve progression, budget analysis, time tracking, and resource allocation—and every table exports straight to Excel.
For teams that live in spreadsheets, this closes a gap. Graphical charts are great for presentations, but sometimes stakeholders need the raw numbers. Now you can give them both.
What's New in the Reports Section
GanttPRO's left sidebar now houses four new tabular report options alongside the graphical reports introduced earlier. Each one targets a different tracking need.
The S-Curve Progression report shows whether your project is on track. It compares actual cumulative progress against planned progress using three calculation modes: actual-to-planning, actual-to-baseline, or planned-to-baseline. You can filter by project and date range, and the platform lets you save those filters for reuse. Only one project fits here, but that's intentional for focused analysis.
The Budget Analysis by Project report tackles cost tracking. It surfaces variances so you can catch overspending before it spirals. You can include a single project, multiple projects, or entire portfolios. Calculation modes differ based on scope: multi-project reports compare actual-to-planned figures, while single-project reports add baseline comparisons. Grouping options let you organize by project or contractor. Filtering and saved filters work here too.
The S-Curve Budget report zooms in on the financial curve itself. It displays your planned budget, actual expenses, and the deviation between them. One project at a time, with the same three calculation modes and filtering options. Excel export is available.
For time tracking, two options exist. The Time on Task Analysis by Project breaks down planned versus actual hours per project, showing variance by task. It supports single projects, multiple projects, and portfolios. The Time on S-Curve Tasks report tracks cumulative project hours against estimates. The Resource Analysis report shifts the lens to individual team members, showing hours allocated versus actual.
All tabular reports include Excel export. That single feature makes these reports practical for real-world workflows.
Why This Matters for Your Team
Project managers often juggle two audiences. Executives want visuals—charts that show trajectory at a glance. Finance teams want numbers they can verify, manipulate, and drop into their own models. Graphical reports served the first audience well. Tabular reports serve the second.
The calculation modes deserve attention. "Actual to baseline" comparisons show how far you've drifted from your original plan. "Actual to planning" shows current versus revised expectations. "Planned to baseline" reveals scope creep by comparing the latest schedule against the original. Choosing the right mode depends on what question you're answering.
Saved filters solve a real annoyance. If you run the same report every sprint with identical parameters, saving those filters means one click instead of four. Teams running portfolio-level tracking will appreciate this most.
Not everything moved to tables yet. Some reports still exist only as charts. GanttPRO notes that table view isn't available for all report types. If your critical report is chart-only, that's a gap worth flagging to the product team.
A Practical Scenario
Say you're three sprints into a software release. The product owner asks whether the team is tracking to capacity. You open Time on Task Analysis by Project in table view, filter for the last three sprints, and export to Excel. The spreadsheet shows every task, estimated hours, actual hours, and variance. You sort by variance descending and immediately spot three tasks that consumed double the estimate. The product owner can now see exactly where time went—no guesswork, no back-and-forth asking for breakdowns.
Without tabular export, you'd either screenshot charts or manually rebuild the data. Neither is efficient.
What to Watch Next
Tabular reporting is becoming standard in project management tools. GanttPRO's move puts it in line with competitors who already offered spreadsheet-style exports. The question is which additional report types will get table views next.
Excel export is table stakes for finance-adjacent features. Watch whether GanttPRO adds live spreadsheet integration—linking Excel files directly to reports rather than requiring one-way exports. That would appeal to teams managing budgets across multiple tools.
For now, the practical advice is straightforward: open the Reports section, try the tabular view on your most-run report, and export. Even if you never share the table, having the data in a spreadsheet lets you answer ad-hoc questions without returning to the platform.
Key takeaways
- Four new tabular report types covering progress, budget, time, and resources
- Excel export available on all new table reports
- Three calculation modes: actual-to-planning, actual-to-baseline, planned-to-baseline
- Saved filters enable quick repeated reporting
- Not all GanttPRO reports support table view yet
Frequently asked questions
Can I run tabular reports across multiple projects at once?
Yes. Budget Analysis, Time on Task by Project, and Resource Analysis all support multiple projects or portfolios. S-Curve reports are limited to single projects.
What calculation modes are available?
Most reports offer three modes: actual-to-planning, actual-to-baseline, and planned-to-baseline. The available options depend on whether you're running a single or multi-project report.
How do I save filters for repeated use?
Apply your filters, then look for a save option within the filter panel. Saved filters appear as presets for future sessions.
Can I export all tabular reports to Excel?
Yes, Excel export is included for every new table report in this release.
Where do I find these reports in GanttPRO?
Navigate to the Reports section via the left sidebar. Select your desired report type and choose the table view option in the pop-up window.
