DoneDone vs Zoho Desk
A side-by-side editorial comparison of DoneDone and Zoho Desk — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
DoneDone vs Zoho Desk: at a glance
What is DoneDone?
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.
What is Zoho Desk?
Zoho Desk's tracked feed is its evergreen support blog, not a product changelog
The tracked feed for Zoho Desk is the company's marketing/education blog — how-to articles, best-practice guides, and integration explainers — rather than a release changelog. Posts are infrequent and largely evergreen, with the most recent dated entries months apart and a long tail stretching back to 2023.

DoneDone
5.0SUPPORT
DoneDone smooths daily work: paste-in checklists and replies that keep their formatting.
◆ Current state
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.
◆ Where it's heading
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.
◆ Prediction
Expect more email-pipeline and checklist refinements; automations may gain new triggers, given checklist templates already hook into status changes.

Zoho Desk's tracked feed is its evergreen support blog, not a product changelog
◆ Current state
The tracked feed for Zoho Desk is the company's marketing/education blog — how-to articles, best-practice guides, and integration explainers — rather than a release changelog. Posts are infrequent and largely evergreen, with the most recent dated entries months apart and a long tail stretching back to 2023.
◆ Where it's heading
As a content feed it reflects positioning more than shipping: recurring themes are SLA management, knowledge-base SEO, NPS, and cross-product integrations (Contracts, Pipedrive). There is no observable product-release signal here to chart a capability trajectory from.
◆ Prediction
Expect more cadence-driven SEO and best-practice content on the same support themes. Actual Zoho Desk product changes won't surface through this feed, so treat its signal as marketing rather than release activity.
