All the files can be accessed from DingTalk anytime, anywhere – ideal for remote teamwork, on the go, or located worldwide across different time zones.

DingTalk also has built-in tools specially designed for managers that remove friction from necessary processes. Administrative necessities like budget planning, business trip applications, and annual leave requests can be submitted in DingTalk. Then, it only takes one click to approve.

As an enterprise super app, DingTalk enables businesses and teams of all sizes to transform into an agile and effective workforce of the future.
