DoneDone vs OneDesk
A side-by-side editorial comparison of DoneDone and OneDesk — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
DoneDone vs OneDesk: at a glance
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.
What is OneDesk?
OneDesk absorbs asset tracking and approvals, turning an all-in-one help desk into an ITSM suite.
OneDesk consolidates ticketing, projects and customer portals into a single tool, shipping roughly monthly on an uneven cadence. The August release is the largest in the window: a basic Asset Management app, an Approvals workflow, real-time translation on live chat in beta, archiving that leaves items in their original project, projects created directly from tickets, webforms for projects, SLA policies down to five minutes, and a Power BI connector. Earlier releases added multiple customer-facing help centers, Odie AI ticket summaries and knowledge-base generation, a UI redesign, and inbound voice.

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.
OneDesk
3.8SUPPORT
OneDesk absorbs asset tracking and approvals, turning an all-in-one help desk into an ITSM suite.
◆ Current state
OneDesk consolidates ticketing, projects and customer portals into a single tool, shipping roughly monthly on an uneven cadence. The August release is the largest in the window: a basic Asset Management app, an Approvals workflow, real-time translation on live chat in beta, archiving that leaves items in their original project, projects created directly from tickets, webforms for projects, SLA policies down to five minutes, and a Power BI connector. Earlier releases added multiple customer-facing help centers, Odie AI ticket summaries and knowledge-base generation, a UI redesign, and inbound voice.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is absorption: each release pulls in a job customers were doing in a separate tool — a call center, a portal builder, and now an asset spreadsheet or a paid ITAM app. Assets plus approvals plus tight SLAs is recognisably the IT service management feature set, which is a different buyer from the small support team OneDesk has historically served. The AI work through Odie has paused while this structural expansion happens.
◆ Prediction
Asset Management shipped as explicitly basic, so the near-term work is depth there — discovery, relationships to tickets, lifecycle states — rather than another new app.
