A side-by-side editorial comparison of Wealthbox and Easy!Appointments — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Wealthbox is reframing the advisor CRM around agents, with AI Notetaker as the beachhead.
Four of five entries are AI Notetaker releases — three separate enhancement batches across February, April and May, aimed at capturing more conversations, sharing notes across a team, improving reliability, and cutting the admin that follows a client meeting. The outlier is a March announcement of an agent layer that Wealthbox positions as helping run a practice rather than analysing it. Only one non-AI release appears: contact actions inside opportunity workflows.
Easy!Appointments 1.6 lands video conferencing, GDPR tools, and a serious security overhaul across its CalDAV and booking stack.
Easy!Appointments, an open-source self-hosted scheduler, is shipping its 1.6 major version through a long pre-release cycle that has introduced Jitsi and Google Meet integration, CAPTCHA and ALTCHA anti-abuse protection, GDPR features, and a rebuilt CalDAV synchronization stack. The 1.6.1 security hardening pre-release then landed a concentrated batch of serious vulnerability fixes: LDAP injection in directory search, SSRF in CalDAV URL handling, cross-account appointment takeover, provider credential exposure to secretary accounts, and CAPTCHA bypass — a set that suggests the expanded surface area of 1.6.0 brought corresponding security debt.

The outlier is a March announcement of an agent layer that Wealthbox positions as helping run a practice rather than analysing it. Only one non-AI release appears: contact actions inside opportunity workflows.
The record-to-action framing is doing real work here: three consecutive quarters of Notetaker investment establish that Wealthbox owns the meeting, and the agent announcement is the claim on what happens between meetings. The single workflow release matters more than its size suggests, because contact actions are the kind of primitive an agent needs to act on rather than just summarise.
Expect the agent layer to be wired into the workflow engine that just gained contact actions, so agents change records rather than only producing meeting notes.
Easy!Appointments, an open-source self-hosted scheduler, is shipping its 1.6 major version through a long pre-release cycle that has introduced Jitsi and Google Meet integration, CAPTCHA and ALTCHA anti-abuse protection, GDPR features, and a rebuilt CalDAV synchronization stack.

The 1.6 release line is expanding Easy!Appointments from a simple booking page into a more complete scheduling platform: video conferencing links, richer calendar sync, GDPR compliance tooling, and hardened multi-provider access controls all move it closer to commercial alternatives. The security work in 1.6.1-beta.1 is as important as the features — self-hosted deployments that serve real customer data need these fixes before anyone should run 1.6 in production.
A stable 1.6.1 release is the next step, clearing the pre-release label once the security fixes are confirmed across the beta testing community. After that, the CalDAV and video conferencing integrations will likely expand — CalDAV push notifications or two-way Google Calendar sync are the natural follow-ons.
