TalentLMS
TalentLMS bets on AI skills practice and native HRIS wiring with its 7.0 release.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ever Gauzy and Frappe HR — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Ever Gauzy ships many builds a day, hardening security and folding in a Plane PM integration
Ever Gauzy, an open-source ERP/HR and time-tracking suite, is releasing at an extreme cadence — several versions (109.x through 111.x) on a single day. The substantive threads are a breaking JWT change that now embeds organizationId, a string of security fixes (JWT-secret injection, GitHub App state nonce, CORP hardening), and ongoing integration of Plane (project management) with SSO and email. Much of the rest is CI/Electron build plumbing.
Frappe HR runs a dual v15/v16 release train, deepening payroll and recruitment modules.
Frappe HR, the open-source HRMS, ships frequent tagged releases on two tracks: a v15 stable line (mostly bug fixes) and a v16 development line accruing features. Recent work concentrates on payroll correctness — Employee Advance handling, salary components, income-tax reporting — plus recruitment additions and steady permission hardening across forms and reports.
Ever Gauzy, an open-source ERP/HR and time-tracking suite, is releasing at an extreme cadence — several versions (109.x through 111.x) on a single day. The substantive threads are a breaking JWT change that now embeds organizationId, a string of security fixes (JWT-secret injection, GitHub App state nonce, CORP hardening), and ongoing integration of Plane (project management) with SSO and email. Much of the rest is CI/Electron build plumbing.
Two directions stand out: a move toward stronger multi-organization architecture (org-scoped JWTs) and security hardening across deploys, and an expansion of scope by absorbing Plane as a PM module. Together they point at Gauzy consolidating into a broader, multi-tenant business suite.
Expect the rapid release train to continue, with further Plane integration depth and security follow-ups. Clients should prepare for the new org-scoped token structure as it propagates through the 111.x line.
Frappe HR, the open-source HRMS, ships frequent tagged releases on two tracks: a v15 stable line (mostly bug fixes) and a v16 development line accruing features. Recent work concentrates on payroll correctness — Employee Advance handling, salary components, income-tax reporting — plus recruitment additions and steady permission hardening across forms and reports.
The v16 line is where direction shows: a new Job Applicant hiring-pipeline board, resume uploads on applications, regional payroll rules, and richer advance/expense reporting. The pattern is deepening the payroll and recruitment modules while tightening role-based permissions. Expect v16 to keep absorbing features while v15 stays maintenance-only.
Next likely moves: continued v16 feature releases extending recruitment (building on the hiring-pipeline board) and payroll edge cases, with v15 receiving backported bug fixes only.
