Sam,
Pleasure to see you on here (and on a Saturday no less).
Most of the times people use summary reports to display information that could (should) be displayed in report to get the whole story.
Different detailed features to make the reports even more functional for digestion.
Imagine this for Budgets and expense trends, or resource workloads / allocations:

(Pie charts are good for snap shots of data, but if you want to see how things change over time, this is a little easier to understand, compared to a grouped summary report).
Heat Maps are becoming a popular request for some of our sales and national clients. Not so much for the function, but because they look cool.

One of the big asks is to be able to compare data from different tables. Most of the time people end up integrating with Tableau, Domo, or some other charting system that can display multiple data sources.
I understand that its different table queries, but you are already running one table query, why not two.
Side note; maybe make "3D shadowing" the default in the branding section. Makes the graphs look much nicer and might help the conversion / retention from a marketing point of view. Not many people use / know about that checkbox.
