A small-business platform whose feed is SEO content, not product releases
A side-by-side editorial comparison of OroCRM and Streak — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
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.
Streak is wiring AI into every corner of the CRM — and now lets LLMs write to the pipeline
Streak's changelog is dominated by AI features layered onto its Gmail-native CRM: deal summaries and Q&A in the sidebar, AI citations for traceability, mobile AI Q&A, and an MCP server that now lets LLMs create and update records, not just read them. Pipeline-management craft (combined stage/column manager, rebuilt saved-view editor) and a steady stream of fixes run underneath. The feed shows occasional duplicate entries for the same feature on adjacent dates.
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.
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.
Expect 7.0 to GA with the expanded API surface, and SCIM plus invoicing to anchor Oro's enterprise and commerce pitch.
Streak's changelog is dominated by AI features layered onto its Gmail-native CRM: deal summaries and Q&A in the sidebar, AI citations for traceability, mobile AI Q&A, and an MCP server that now lets LLMs create and update records, not just read them. Pipeline-management craft (combined stage/column manager, rebuilt saved-view editor) and a steady stream of fixes run underneath. The feed shows occasional duplicate entries for the same feature on adjacent dates.
The clear direction is making the CRM operable by AI: read access matured first (summaries, Q&A, web research), and the MCP server now closes the loop with write capability so assistants can move deals and create contacts. Citations signal attention to trust as AI outputs drive more decisions. Streak is betting the CRM becomes something you increasingly manage through an assistant rather than a UI.
Expect deeper agent write-paths (more record types and automation triggers callable from LLMs) and continued AI-trust features like citations, with the Gmail sidebar remaining the primary surface.
