A side-by-side editorial comparison of Eventzilla and 3CX — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
One real theme release amid stale event-planning content
Eventzilla's feed pairs a single product update — five new event-landing-page themes — with a backlog of evergreen event-planning strategy posts. The entries run from mid-2024 to March 2025, so the crawled feed is stale by more than a year.
3CX is following its AI-heavy V20 Update 9 with a cross-platform client refresh and cheaper hosting.
3CX just shipped V20 Update 9, which brought Grok-powered transcription, AI assistants, and a redesigned web client. The current wave is downstream of that release: coordinated V5.6 builds of the softphone, iOS, and Android apps moving to production, plus plugin updates and a direct DATEV connector for the Windows app. It also cut hosted pricing for larger systems.
Eventzilla's feed pairs a single product update — five new event-landing-page themes — with a backlog of evergreen event-planning strategy posts. The entries run from mid-2024 to March 2025, so the crawled feed is stale by more than a year.
The lone product move is cosmetic (landing-page themes), and everything newer is absent, so the trajectory is not observable — the blog appears to have stopped updating or the crawler is on an archived feed.
Without recent entries, no confident prediction; the feed source likely needs re-pointing to confirm whether product work continues.
3CX just shipped V20 Update 9, which brought Grok-powered transcription, AI assistants, and a redesigned web client. The current wave is downstream of that release: coordinated V5.6 builds of the softphone, iOS, and Android apps moving to production, plus plugin updates and a direct DATEV connector for the Windows app. It also cut hosted pricing for larger systems.
The product is in a consolidation phase after a major AI-centric release, hardening its clients, extending integrations like DATEV, and trimming hosted pricing to stay competitive on VoIP. Expect the Update 9 AI features to keep propagating across the mobile and desktop apps, with more regional integrations following.
Next likely moves are additional Update 9 point releases and wider availability of the AI transcription and assistant features inside the mobile apps, on the heels of the V5.6 client rollout.
