At hte time of writing this text, there are two flavours of software that was originally developed by Steve Loft. The original Cumulus software (now called Legacy Cumulus 1) is no longer capable of being developed any further, as neither its development environment, nor its source, are available now. There was a Cumulus 2, but it is no longer available, some of its functionality was subsequently added to Cumulus 1, and some of its concepts formed the basis for Cumulus 3 (now generally known as Cumulus MX).

This page compares functionality between the original Cumulus software and the current Cumulus MX software. It is aimed at those who are using the original software, and are unsure whether to keep using Cumulus 1, or to make the swap to Cumulus MX.
