Initially MX, as written by Steve Loft, [https://cumulus.hosiene.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=27&t=13298#p104138 lacked a lot of features] that were available in Cumulus 1, but subsequent developments headed by Mark Crossley have now added the majority of the missing features.  There are also many features that have been added to MX that were either on the now lost list of enhancements for Cumulus 1 that never got implemented, or they are extra functionality to reflect recent changes in weather station features. All quotes are from the release notes issued by Steve or Mark. Only changes to functionality are noted below (for fixes see support forum for full release announcements).
