A side-by-side editorial comparison of Desk365 and DoneDone — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Desk365 vs DoneDone: at a glance
What is Desk365?
Asset management is the real build; the feed is mostly an interview series.
Desk365's feed mixes two things. The product half is a steady asset-management build-out: Microsoft Intune device sync with field mapping, asset activity tracking, more flexible exports and labels, expanded APIs, plus a Phase 2 August release adding printable knowledge-base articles, JSON data for section-based dropdowns, reorganised ticket and time-entry categories and quick-start timers. The other half is Humans of Support, an interview series running roughly weekly, alongside comparison and metrics content.
What is DoneDone?
DoneDone's editor gets tables, spreadsheet paste and text colors.
DoneDone's November 13 release adds tables to the text editor, with direct paste from Google Sheets or Excel, plus text sizes, colors, highlighting and strikethrough. It follows the November 2 rework of Scheduled Tasks and October's bulk checklist entry and single email connection for several Mailboxes. Late summer brought workflow automations and custom fields.

◆ Current state
Desk365's feed mixes two things. The product half is a steady asset-management build-out: Microsoft Intune device sync with field mapping, asset activity tracking, more flexible exports and labels, expanded APIs, plus a Phase 2 August release adding printable knowledge-base articles, JSON data for section-based dropdowns, reorganised ticket and time-entry categories and quick-start timers. The other half is Humans of Support, an interview series running roughly weekly, alongside comparison and metrics content.
◆ Where it's heading
The shipping work points at IT service management rather than general customer support — Intune sync, asset activity history and asset exports are ITSM concerns, and they are arriving faster than anything on the ticketing side. Desk365 is positioning against MSP and internal-IT helpdesks while its written content argues that AI is not a substitute for judgement, which is a deliberately conservative stance for the category.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next product release to deepen asset management further — likely software or licence inventory on top of the device sync already in place — and to keep arriving as a batched monthly or phase digest rather than individual feature notes.
DoneDone
5.0SUPPORT
DoneDone's editor gets tables, spreadsheet paste and text colors.
◆ Current state
DoneDone's November 13 release adds tables to the text editor, with direct paste from Google Sheets or Excel, plus text sizes, colors, highlighting and strikethrough. It follows the November 2 rework of Scheduled Tasks and October's bulk checklist entry and single email connection for several Mailboxes. Late summer brought workflow automations and custom fields.
◆ Where it's heading
After the bigger summer releases, DoneDone has moved into steady polish of daily actions: replies, checklists, schedules and now formatting. Each release removes friction for small help-desk teams rather than adding a new module.
◆ Prediction
More small usability updates on email and tasks are likely; the entries give no sign of another large module soon.
