Downloads

oDesk applications are all free for you as an oDesk user. The core application, oDesk Team, logs time and screenshots of work activity and creates an online Work Diary. Properly logging time with an oDesk Team client is an important part of the oDesk payment guarantee for hourly assignments. All Windows users must download the entire oDesk Pack. All Mac and Linux users must download the oDesk Team client (oDesk Share is optional).
