As we step forward into 2025, we say goodbye to Mautic 4.x. It’s been a fantastic journey, but the time has come to move forward. On December 31, 2024, security support for Mautic 4 officially ended. This means no more bug fixes or security updates. If you’re still using it, we strongly encourage you to upgrade to Mautic 5 to keep your platform secure and running smoothly, or purchase Extended Long Term Support to continue receiving security fixes.
Why Upgrade to Mautic 5?
The Mautic 5.x series has raised the bar for marketing automation, delivering powerful new features and updates:
- Mautic 5.0: This version introduced Symfony 5 and PHP 8.1 compatibility, making your platform faster, more secure, and future-proof. It also revamped outdated dependencies for better stability.
- Mautic 5.1: The Andromeda Edition added 10 new features, 168 enhancements, and 130 bug fixes, focusing on usability and reliability.
- Mautic 5.2: The Pleiades release introduced a fresh user interface alongside 12 new features, 97 enhancements, and 75 bug fixes to make workflows even more intuitive.
A New Release Strategy
To make your experience smoother, we’ve introduced a new release strategy that aligns with the needs of most organizations. Here’s what you can expect:

- Extended Long-Term Support (ELTS): For businesses needing more time to transition, ELTS offers critical updates for up to two additional years after LTS ends. Learn more about ELTS here.
