What is Wiki.js?

Wiki.js 3.0 beta adds math, personal access tokens and nav automations; Postgres 17 now required.

Wiki.js runs two tracks: 2.x stable, which now gets only security patches, and a 3.0 beta still labeled 'not for production'. Over the past month the beta added Excalidraw live collaboration, SCIM provisioning, notifications, annotations, a glossary, draft recovery and multi-replica git sync. The newest beta adds inline KaTeX/MathJax math, personal access tokens, navigation-menu automations and search suggestions, and raises the minimum database to PostgreSQL 17.

What is Zoho Vault?

Zoho Vault adds desktop apps and chases price-hike refugees from Bitwarden and 1Password

Zoho Vault shipped a long-overdue Windows and Mac desktop client in April, layered accessibility controls onto the web app, and explicitly positioned itself as the switch target for users hit by Bitwarden and 1Password price increases. Recent posture is a steady mix of product expansion and competitive-positioning content.

6.3

Wiki.js 3.0 beta adds math, personal access tokens and nav automations; Postgres 17 now required.

◆ Current state

Wiki.js runs two tracks: 2.x stable, which now gets only security patches, and a 3.0 beta still labeled 'not for production'. Over the past month the beta added Excalidraw live collaboration, SCIM provisioning, notifications, annotations, a glossary, draft recovery and multi-replica git sync. The newest beta adds inline KaTeX/MathJax math, personal access tokens, navigation-menu automations and search suggestions, and raises the minimum database to PostgreSQL 17.

◆ Where it's heading

Headline features are in place, and recent betas fill out editor ergonomics, identity and API plumbing, and operational safety rather than adding new editors. Personal access tokens and API keys bound to page rules extend the access model to automation clients, and the Postgres 17 floor shows the team is still willing to set hard infrastructure requirements before 3.0 locks.

◆ Prediction

More betas pairing editor and admin polish with API, multi-node and v2-import fixes are the likely next step. The entries still give no date for 3.0 dropping its beta label.

Z2.5

Zoho Vault adds desktop apps and chases price-hike refugees from Bitwarden and 1Password

◆ Current state

Zoho Vault shipped a long-overdue Windows and Mac desktop client in April, layered accessibility controls onto the web app, and explicitly positioned itself as the switch target for users hit by Bitwarden and 1Password price increases. Recent posture is a steady mix of product expansion and competitive-positioning content.

◆ Where it's heading

The product is broadening client surface (desktop app), inclusivity (accessibility controls), and authentication credibility (FIDO/passkey participation, GigaOm Leader placement). The editorial is consistently framed against the price-tier debate among the consumer-facing password managers, suggesting Zoho wants the SMB and enterprise refugees of that segment.

◆ Prediction

Expect passkey-first authentication flows or deeper MFA integration to land next given the FIDO posture, and more head-to-head Bitwarden/1Password comparison content while the price news still has heat.
