Twenty
Twenty's ORM v2 migration is down to permission and repository edge cases
A side-by-side editorial comparison of NetHunt CRM and Nimble — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
NetHunt's feed is evaluation-stage SEO content, with no product releases visible in it.
NetHunt publishes to a marketing blog rather than a changelog, and the last ten posts are all top-of-funnel search content: CRM buying guides, lead-generation listicles, migration checklists and sales-metrics how-tos. Nothing in the window announces or dates a product change. Where NetHunt's own capabilities do appear — segmentation, automation, ROI tracking — they are described as already shipped.
Nimble is turning its CRM into a full outbound-email hub for small teams.
Nimble keeps its small-business CRM core but the recent shipping is dominated by email marketing and outreach: drag-and-drop templates, AI-generated emails, multi-sender campaigns, group messages with team collaboration and per-link click analytics, and category-based unsubscribe lists. CRM-side work is mostly polish — customizable list views, fresh navigation, an AI-revamped business card scanner. Forms get incremental design controls.

Cadence holds at roughly two posts a week and the topic mix has not moved: evaluation-stage keywords aimed at buyers comparing CRMs, plus displacement content targeting teams already unhappy with an incumbent. The newest post, a plain explainer on why a business needs a CRM, sits at the widest end of that funnel. Read as a signal about the product, this feed reports nothing.
Expect the same weekly buying-guide and listicle rotation to continue. Product movement will not be visible here unless NetHunt starts publishing a separate release feed — these entries give no basis for calling what is being built.

Nimble is repositioning from a relationship-tracking CRM into an integrated outreach platform — the kind of customer that previously stitched HubSpot Free with Mailchimp. The AI work shows up as assistive (email composition, business card OCR) rather than agentic, and the email-marketing primitives (lists, unsubscribes, multiple senders, template editor) are becoming first-class rather than add-ons.
Expect the email surface to keep widening — automation/sequencing logic across senders, deliverability tooling like warmup or domain authentication helpers, or AI-driven send-time and segment recommendations using the new per-link click data.
