LiveAgent
LiveAgent is bolting an AI-agent and MCP layer onto a mature help desk while grinding down a security backlog.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Desk365 and DoneDone — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Desk365 ships steady bi-monthly helpdesk updates, with asset management now the throughline.
Desk365 is a Microsoft Teams-centric helpdesk shipping on a predictable bi-monthly cadence. Recent releases center on asset and software management, plus incremental workflow additions — survey response notifications, ticket search, permissions, multilingual agent portal, and two new ticket import API endpoints. Most of what its feed publishes, however, is marketing and educational content rather than product changes.
DoneDone keeps polishing its Kanban boards and shared-inbox workflows.
DoneDone is a task-tracking and shared-inbox tool, and its recent releases concentrate on board and mailbox usability: collapsible Kanban columns, new sort options, a Mailbox Kanban view, active-assignee filtering, and quieter activity feeds with actions hidden by default. Each is a focused, incremental UX improvement.
Desk365 is a Microsoft Teams-centric helpdesk shipping on a predictable bi-monthly cadence. Recent releases center on asset and software management, plus incremental workflow additions — survey response notifications, ticket search, permissions, multilingual agent portal, and two new ticket import API endpoints. Most of what its feed publishes, however, is marketing and educational content rather than product changes.
The product work is trending toward IT asset management and API extensibility, nudging Desk365 beyond basic ticketing into broader ITSM territory. Each release bundles one larger theme — assets this quarter — with several smaller conveniences. Note the low signal-to-noise in the feed: most posts are SEO and thought-leadership, so any cadence-based velocity overstates how much is actually shipping.
The next bi-monthly release will likely deepen asset and software management and extend the import/export API surface, continuing the AI and automation thread flagged in the Q2 roundup.

Each is a focused, incremental UX improvement.
The direction is workflow refinement rather than expansion — reducing noise, giving users more control over how boards and inboxes are organized, and bringing Kanban patterns to the shared mailbox. It's the steady polish of an established tool tightening its day-to-day experience.
Expect continued board and mailbox UX refinement — more view, sort, and filtering controls — rather than a new capability area.
