Compiz works really well in MATE. But there is a problem, not replace Marco.
The command . Compiz does work very well but Marco is still active.
Error:
Window manager warning: Window 0 in the display “: 0.0″ already has a window manager, try using the “– replace” to replace the active window manager.
This makes the system resources increase significantly.
A momentary solution is to add the Home Applications under the command: killall marco. This seems to work pretty well. But of course this is not the ideal solution.
Another thing, what is the file associations default applications MATE.
The modification of these files does not affect MATE:
/etc/gnome/defaults.list
usr/share/gnome/applications/defaults.list

Finally, I will say that I’m using MATE and love it.
A great job!
