I have no recommendations one way or the other. The main decision is whether you are happy with the different architecture of MX, and whether you can live without those facilities in Cumulus 1 yet to be added to MX. | I have no recommendations one way or the other.

Cumulus 3 is a new rewrite also known as Cumulus MX, using a different architecture (partly inspired by Cumulus 2), but it is still in beta. Although it provides some enhancements in functionality and will run on a range of platforms, there are several key pieces of functionality that have not been made available in Cumulus MX. It can be used in a production system as it has good reliability, but perhaps should be avoided in a few rare cases where people's systems are not very reliable. | Cumulus 3 is a new rewrite also known as Cumulus MX, using a different architecture (partly inspired by Cumulus 2), but it is still in beta.
