A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ganttic and Hive — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.

Ganttic vs Hive: at a glance
What is Ganttic?
Ganttic's feed is mostly blog and case studies, with one real shipped update: mobile redesign and view tracking.
Most crawled entries are Ganttic's content-marketing blog and customer case studies, but the feed also carries genuine product updates — the Q1 roundup of the redesigned Planner mobile app, task coloring, a Single Project Gantt View, and an expanded History Log. So the picture is mixed: heavy editorial output around resource scheduling, with occasional real release notes mixed in. Where the product moves, it is sharpening mobile usability and change-tracking transparency.
What is Hive?
Hive turns reporting into a planning tool: shared inputs, grouped values, per-person drill-downs.
Hive's November releases have two tracks. Bulk work got easier with undo and redo, a rebuilt Workflows library and now setting or shifting dates across many actions at once. Reporting got deeper: on November 13 dashboards gained per-person burndown drill-downs, grouped custom-field values in charts, and formulas that read monthly capacity and factors stored in Tables.

Ganttic

Ganttic's feed is mostly blog and case studies, with one real shipped update: mobile redesign and view tracking.
◆ Current state
Most crawled entries are Ganttic's content-marketing blog and customer case studies, but the feed also carries genuine product updates — the Q1 roundup of the redesigned Planner mobile app, task coloring, a Single Project Gantt View, and an expanded History Log. So the picture is mixed: heavy editorial output around resource scheduling, with occasional real release notes mixed in. Where the product moves, it is sharpening mobile usability and change-tracking transparency.
◆ Where it's heading
The observable product thread is incremental polish: better mobile planning, more granular audit/history logging, and clearer views. The blog and case studies (ports, labs, construction) signal a push toward operations-heavy, equipment-and-people scheduling verticals. Expect continued usability and transparency refinements rather than category-redefining moves.
◆ Prediction
The next releases likely continue the mobile and history-log line and lean further into resource-heavy verticals. The blog's AI-resource-management posts hint at AI features, but no shipped AI capability is visible yet.
Hive
6.3COLLABPM
Hive turns reporting into a planning tool: shared inputs, grouped values, per-person drill-downs.
◆ Current state
Hive's November releases have two tracks. Bulk work got easier with undo and redo, a rebuilt Workflows library and now setting or shifting dates across many actions at once. Reporting got deeper: on November 13 dashboards gained per-person burndown drill-downs, grouped custom-field values in charts, and formulas that read monthly capacity and factors stored in Tables.
◆ Where it's heading
Dashboards are moving from showing tracked time toward capacity planning, with shared inputs that update every report when edited. Bulk editing keeps reaching more views, and each new bulk action ships with undo.
◆ Prediction
Expect more report widgets to accept Tables inputs and drill-downs, and bulk actions extending to fields beyond dates and status.
