Mautic 7.2.0 ships transactional emails, A/B testing, MMS, and a Marketplace API in its densest feature release.
◆ Current state
Mautic 7.2.0 'Lynx Edition' is a substantial feature release — truly transactional emails, A/B testing for segment emails, MMS with token support, a Marketplace API with reviews and ratings, point insights, invite-by-email user management, bulk contact field operations, and an infinite campaign canvas. Earlier in the cycle, 7.1.2 patched seven CVEs across SQL injection, SSRF, SSTI, path traversal, and authorization bypass — a coordinated security sweep across three active version branches.
◆ Where it's heading
Two parallel stories define this period: feature depth and security maturity. The Marketplace API is the most directional move in 7.2.0 — it signals Mautic betting on a third-party plugin ecosystem rather than competing solely on native features. If the Marketplace gains traction, extensibility becomes the platform's differentiation. The security sweep in 7.1.2 shows the project is investing in coordinated disclosure and multi-branch maintenance, which is table stakes for enterprise adoption.
◆ Prediction
The Marketplace will gain a managed distribution model and featured plugin promotions. The campaign builder's infinite canvas is a UX investment that will likely see visual editing improvements in 7.3.0.
Moosend
5.0MKT AUTO
Moosend's feed is still all blog posts; no product release has surfaced in two months.
◆ Current state
Every entry in Moosend's feed over the past two months is a blog post on marketing topics; the latest is a guide to SEO-friendly content for small businesses. No product feature releases appear in this data.
◆ Where it's heading
The development direction can't be read from this source. Either the tracked feed is a blog rather than a changelog, or product releases aren't announced publicly. The topics (automation journeys, vertical guides, campaign examples, now SEO) match Moosend's SMB email-marketing positioning but say nothing about what is shipping.
◆ Prediction
The entries do not support a prediction about the product; a real changelog source is needed before trajectory can be judged.
