Bitrix24's blog explains MCP for small teams; still no product releases.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Close CRM and IDURAR ERP CRM — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Close turns caller ID into an automatic choice with Local Presence.
Close is shipping on three tracks: the Chloe assistant, calling, and admin controls. In November the calling side moved most, with Local Presence picking a recognized or local-looking number for each call and text, and outbound calls now playing a tone while they connect. Chloe Chat is generally available and draws charts on request, and October brought object renaming and a central Security page with OIDC SSO.
Two terse tags from early 2024 are all this feed knows about IDURAR
The feed carries two tags from February 2024: 3.1.4, which fixed empty invoices, quotes and offers, and 4.0.0-beta.1, which says only that it upgrades IDURAR to that version. Neither describes new capability, and nothing has appeared since.

Calling and texting are getting the kind of automation Chloe brought to search and reporting, with Close making choices reps used to make by hand. The admin work points at larger teams that need renamed objects and central access control.
Expect more calling features that remove manual steps, such as number management or call outcome handling, alongside further Chloe chart and action types.

The only directional fact is that a 4.0 beta existed by February 2024. The entries do not say what changed in it, and with no later releases here there is no arc to read.
The entries are too thin and too old to support a prediction; whether 4.0 reached a stable release cannot be seen from this feed.
