A side-by-side editorial comparison of DoneDone and Zoho Assist — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
DoneDone smooths daily work: paste-in checklists and replies that keep their formatting.
DoneDone's latest release is two quality-of-life changes. New checklists open a popup where items can be typed or pasted in bulk, and replies now keep bold, italics and lists. They follow a busy late summer: workflow automations, custom fields, email-to-task, allow/block filters, and one email connection feeding several Mailboxes.
Mature remote-support tool ships steady platform-compat work while leaning on awards and recap posts for momentum.
Zoho Assist is a stable remote-support product in incremental delivery mode. Recent shipping has focused on platform reach (Wayland for Linux), edge-case access (Virtual Monitor for headless and kiosked machines), and a real Zapier integration. Marketing cadence — awards, comparison posts, recaps — outweighs raw product news, which is normal for a category-leader in a settled market.

They follow a busy late summer: workflow automations, custom fields, email-to-task, allow/block filters, and one email connection feeding several Mailboxes.
After two substantive launches (automations and custom fields), DoneDone has shifted to tightening the email-driven support workflow and cutting friction in everyday task handling. The cadence is roughly one or two updates a month, each narrow in scope.
Expect more email-pipeline and checklist refinements; automations may gain new triggers, given checklist templates already hook into status changes.

The product is broadening surface area at the edges rather than redefining the category. CoBrowse, called out in the 2025 recap, is the biggest directional bet of the year; everything else reads as compatibility and integration backfill. Expect more workflow automation through tools like Zapier and continued effort to close gaps competitors hit (security posture vs AnyDesk, Linux display servers).
Next likely move is an AI-assisted support layer — automated session summaries, suggested next steps for technicians — packaged on top of CoBrowse. Expect deeper Zoho-suite tie-ins before adjacent third-party integrations.
