Twenty vs Vendasta: at a glance
What is Twenty?
Twenty 2.58 rebuilds CRM permissions down to the row and adds MCP workflow steps.
Twenty 2.58.0 on November 13 rebuilt how access works: role permissions now compile into row-level rules, legacy per-user permissions are gone and the old workflow object is dropped, all flagged as breaking. The same release adds a workflow step that calls MCP tools, self-service two-factor backup codes and stricter SAML checks. Patches 2.58.1 and 2.58.2 then stopped existing accounts from joining a workspace through SSO without an invitation first.
What is Vendasta?
Vendasta's recent changelog entries are blog content — no product release data is visible
All of Vendasta's logged entries are blog posts, case studies, and thought leadership articles about AI automation for agencies, local business marketing, and white-label tools. There are no product release notes, feature announcements, or capability changes in the recent entry set. The content volume is high and consistently targeted at digital agency operators.

5.0CRM
Twenty 2.58 rebuilds CRM permissions down to the row and adds MCP workflow steps.
◆ Current state
Twenty 2.58.0 on November 13 rebuilt how access works: role permissions now compile into row-level rules, legacy per-user permissions are gone and the old workflow object is dropped, all flagged as breaking. The same release adds a workflow step that calls MCP tools, self-service two-factor backup codes and stricter SAML checks. Patches 2.58.1 and 2.58.2 then stopped existing accounts from joining a workspace through SSO without an invitation first.
◆ Where it's heading
Twenty is hardening the base under its AI and app platform: tighter access rules, SSO and SAML checks, and apps that run under their own grants. Workflows keep gaining ways to call outside tools, now including MCP servers.
◆ Prediction
Expect follow-up patches as self-hosters hit the 2.58 permission changes, and a fix that lets invited users join SSO-only workspaces.
Vendasta
5.0CRM
Vendasta's recent changelog entries are blog content — no product release data is visible
◆ Current state
All of Vendasta's logged entries are blog posts, case studies, and thought leadership articles about AI automation for agencies, local business marketing, and white-label tools. There are no product release notes, feature announcements, or capability changes in the recent entry set. The content volume is high and consistently targeted at digital agency operators.
◆ Where it's heading
The blog topics — AI employees for agencies, AI receptionists for auto service, white-label marketing platforms — suggest an active product area around AI-powered business tools, but the actual product roadmap isn't readable from editorial content alone. Without product release data, the trajectory cannot be assessed from the available entries.
◆ Prediction
Without actual product changelog data, no grounded prediction is warranted. The editorial content themes indicate the company is investing in AI-powered agency tools, but what specifically is shipping and when is not visible here.
