What is GroupOffice?

GroupOffice patches its current 26.0 line and the older 25.0 line on the same afternoon.

GroupOffice releases 26.0.x builds about weekly and lately faster: 26.0.52 through 26.0.56 landed between October 12 and October 26. On October 26 the 25.0 line also got a patch, 25.0.114, less than half an hour before 26.0.56. Every note is the same install boilerplate, so the changelog shows cadence but not content.

What is OroCRM?

OroCRM pushes enterprise readiness with SCIM provisioning and built-in invoicing

OroCRM is advancing on parallel tracks: a 7.0 release candidate maturing the API layer, a 6.1 line adding native invoicing, and enterprise identity work via SCIM user provisioning. The entries skew toward platform and integration depth rather than front-end features.

GroupOffice vs OroCRM: editorial side-by-side

G5.0

GroupOffice patches its current 26.0 line and the older 25.0 line on the same afternoon.

◆ Current state

GroupOffice releases 26.0.x builds about weekly and lately faster: 26.0.52 through 26.0.56 landed between October 12 and October 26. On October 26 the 25.0 line also got a patch, 25.0.114, less than half an hour before 26.0.56. Every note is the same install boilerplate, so the changelog shows cadence but not content.

◆ Where it's heading

This is a mature groupware suite maintaining its current major line while 25.0 and 6.8 stay supported. Paired builds across branches suggest fixes are backported rather than left to the current line, but nothing in the entries points to new capability or a change in direction.

◆ Prediction

Expect more 26.0.x builds within days and occasional 25.0 or 6.8 patches alongside them. The entries give no basis for a feature forecast.

O0.0

OroCRM pushes enterprise readiness with SCIM provisioning and built-in invoicing

◆ Current state

OroCRM is advancing on parallel tracks: a 7.0 release candidate maturing the API layer, a 6.1 line adding native invoicing, and enterprise identity work via SCIM user provisioning. The entries skew toward platform and integration depth rather than front-end features.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is enterprise B2B commerce maturity — automated user lifecycle (SCIM), invoice generation and delivery inside the CRM, and a more capable API (meta filters, UUID types). Oro is positioning as a back-office platform, not just a CRM.

◆ Prediction

Expect 7.0 to GA with the expanded API surface, and SCIM plus invoicing to anchor Oro's enterprise and commerce pitch.
