OroCRM vs Twenty: at a glance
What is OroCRM?
OroCRM 7.0 LTS turns the CRM into an integration hub: MCP server, SCIM, webhooks.
OroCRM ships monthly maintenance releases on top of its 7.0 LTS line, which landed in May 2026. Since January the visible work has been integration and identity plumbing: an MCP server for back-office and storefront, OIDC identity providers, SCIM provisioning, OAuth2 server metadata, and in May two-way webhooks. The June release is mostly fixes, including making the MCP server's tool output conform to the MCP spec.
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.

OroCRM
0.0CRM
OroCRM 7.0 LTS turns the CRM into an integration hub: MCP server, SCIM, webhooks.
◆ Current state
OroCRM ships monthly maintenance releases on top of its 7.0 LTS line, which landed in May 2026. Since January the visible work has been integration and identity plumbing: an MCP server for back-office and storefront, OIDC identity providers, SCIM provisioning, OAuth2 server metadata, and in May two-way webhooks. The June release is mostly fixes, including making the MCP server's tool output conform to the MCP spec.
◆ Where it's heading
Oro is positioning the CRM as a system other tools and agents connect to, not one users work in alone: identity is delegated to IdPs, events flow out through webhooks, and AI clients come in through MCP. The fixes to MCP output schemas and OAuth metadata show that layer is still being hardened after launch.
◆ Prediction
Expect further MCP and API hardening in the 7.0.x releases rather than new surface area. The entries don't show whether new AI features will sit on top of the MCP server.
Twenty
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.
