Eventtia vs HOMER
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Eventtia and HOMER — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Eventtia vs HOMER: at a glance
What is Eventtia?
Eventtia bets on agentic architecture and enterprise SSO portals to move event software upmarket.
Eventtia is splitting its output between standard event-planning content and a sharper enterprise thesis: corporate-identity-gated registration portals (SAML/OIDC, Okta, Azure AD) and a platform deliberately opened to AI agents. The Swiss watchmaker case study and the SSO architecture explainer show real enterprise infrastructure work, not just feature checklists.
What is HOMER?
HOMER 11 closes an open mTLS listener and stops dropping ISUP from SIP-I calls.
HOMER's 11.0 pre-releases keep pairing security fixes with SIP-I decoding. 11.0.384 makes HEP and HTTPS ingest with mutual TLS and no CA refuse to start, where before they accepted any client, and runs all-in-one node reads in the DuckDB sandbox. It also stops the Decode window from dropping the ISUP part of multipart SIP-I INVITEs. 11.0.382 and 11.0.381 had already required tokens for the live SIP stream and admin rights for alert changes.

Eventtia bets on agentic architecture and enterprise SSO portals to move event software upmarket.
◆ Current state
Eventtia is splitting its output between standard event-planning content and a sharper enterprise thesis: corporate-identity-gated registration portals (SAML/OIDC, Okta, Azure AD) and a platform deliberately opened to AI agents. The Swiss watchmaker case study and the SSO architecture explainer show real enterprise infrastructure work, not just feature checklists.
◆ Where it's heading
Two reinforcing bets are forming — sell to IT and security buyers via SSO/identity integration, and reframe the platform as agent-accessible rather than a closed app with AI bolted on. Together they push Eventtia toward being event infrastructure for large organizations rather than a planner-facing tool.
◆ Prediction
The agentic-software framing is likely a precursor to a published API or agent interface; watch for a concrete developer or agent-integration surface to follow the manifesto.
HOMER
5.0MEETINGS
HOMER 11 closes an open mTLS listener and stops dropping ISUP from SIP-I calls.
◆ Current state
HOMER's 11.0 pre-releases keep pairing security fixes with SIP-I decoding. 11.0.384 makes HEP and HTTPS ingest with mutual TLS and no CA refuse to start, where before they accepted any client, and runs all-in-one node reads in the DuckDB sandbox. It also stops the Decode window from dropping the ISUP part of multipart SIP-I INVITEs. 11.0.382 and 11.0.381 had already required tokens for the live SIP stream and admin rights for alert changes.
◆ Where it's heading
Three releases in a week closed access gaps, which suggests a security review of the 11.0 line before a stable release. Alongside it, the work on SIP-I and ISUP decoding points at carrier and telco users who bridge SS7 and SIP.
◆ Prediction
Expect more fail-closed defaults and sandboxing in the next 11.0 builds, and possibly a published advisory for the mTLS issue.
