- Report Viewer Improvements - The report viewer now offers increased interactivity, including the ability to apply conditional formatting to table fields.
- Relative Date Handling - Reports and dashboards now provide the ability to specify relative dates in input controls. For example, you could enter WEEK - 1 in a Start Date input control to retrieve all the data from the last for the last sever days. Supported keywords in this release are DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, SEMI (that is, half-year), and YEAR.
- PHP Client - This new package lets users interact with JasperReports Server using PHP. A set of PHP classes wrap the server's web services REST API with easy to use business logic so that you can focus on your PHP application rather than its interactions with the server.

- Improved Charting - A new JavaScript/HTML 5 charting engine provides interactive legends, zoom, and new chart types, such as spline charts. For grouped data, the server supports navigation through aggregate and detailed data levels. Note that unsummarized chart types, such as scatter or time series, aren't available in the Ad Hoc Editor in this release.
- Virtual Data Sources - JasperReports Server now supports virtual data sources, which allow you to combine data residing in multiple JDBC or JNDI data sources into a single data source that can query the combined data. This allows data architects to create Domains that define relationships between tables in different databases or between different schemas in the same database.
- Ad Hoc Improvements - The Ad Hoc Editor sports an updated user interface, improved grouping of tables, new cross tab sorting capabilities, and the ability to quickly toggle between detailed and totals in tabular data.
- Relative Date Handling - Reports and dashboards now provide the ability to specify relative dates in input controls. For example, you could enter WEEK - 1 in a Start Date input control to retrieve all the data from the last for the last sever days. Supported keywords in this release are DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, SEMI (that is, half-year), and YEAR.
- Report Viewer Improvements - The report viewer now offers several enhancements: new chart types to choose from; increased interactivity, including the ability to zoom in on specific areas of a chart; conditional formatting of table fields; and an improved UI.
- Extended XML/A support - JasperReports Server can now connect to Microsoft Analysis Services to populate views and reports with multi-dimensional OLAP data. For configuration details, refer to the Jaspersoft OLAP User Guide.
- Powerful administration tools - JasperReports Server now provides enhanced tools for IT administrators:
- Import or export repository objects from the web UI's administration pages.
- Interface to manage user attributes through the web UI's Manage > Users page.
- Persistence of Ad Hoc settings so that configuration is retained across server restarts.
- Monitoring provides a multi-dimensional schema for report performance data and a Domain to simplify analysis.
- Diagnostics that leverage Java Management eXtensions (JMX) to expose system info and resource utilization info in real-time, such as memory and CPU usage, and number of report and views currently running.
