ManageEngine RecoveryManager Plus
RecoveryManager Plus keeps widening its backup coverage across the Microsoft identity estate.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of AgencyAnalytics and easystats — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
AgencyAnalytics is turning its assistant into scheduled agency staff work, not a chat box.
The release cadence is weekly and heavily weighted toward AgencyAI. Skills landed in early August as named, runnable agency tasks; scheduling followed, letting those requests run on a cadence and post results into the client's conversation. Around them sit portfolio-management improvements — client tags, report share history, advanced metric filtering — and a consolidated Data tab feeding the assistant's context.
The easystats meta-package is install tooling wrapped around a relicensed ecosystem.
easystats is the meta-package for the easystats ecosystem, which spans insight, parameters, performance and their siblings. It ships almost no statistics of its own; its releases add installation helpers, ecosystem introspection functions and vignettes. The consequential release in this window is 0.7.0, which moved the whole ecosystem to an MIT license.

Every recent release either gives AgencyAI more to read or more autonomy in when it runs. The Data tab consolidation, the AI Tracker add-on for AI search visibility, and now scheduling all point the same way: the platform is being positioned to produce the recurring client deliverables an agency would otherwise assign to a junior analyst.
Expect scheduled AgencyAI output to gain delivery paths beyond conversation history — into reports or client-facing sends — given the existing report scheduling and share infrastructure.
easystats is the meta-package for the easystats ecosystem, which spans insight, parameters, performance and their siblings. It ships almost no statistics of its own; its releases add installation helpers, ecosystem introspection functions and vignettes. The consequential release in this window is 0.7.0, which moved the whole ecosystem to an MIT license.
Work concentrates on making the ecosystem legible and installable as a unit: easystats_packages() to enumerate it, easystats_citations() to count its citations, pak and r-universe support to install it, and a complete-workflow vignette to show it in use. Underneath that, 0.7.0 settled the licensing and formalized the author list. The pattern is a project tending its own boundaries rather than adding capability.
The recent additions are all introspection and installation helpers, so the next release most likely adds another of those or refreshes component versions rather than changing what the ecosystem does.
