Software function

Boost your productivity with this free app

DingTalk comes with multiple features, one of which is instant messaging that allows you to have effective communication with your team members. You can create a group chat to seamlessly send messages to the entire team, and you can notify them about any urgent chats using the app’s ding feature. Plus, you can use the bank-level encrypted secret chat option for confidential chats where the conversation self-destructs 30 seconds after being read.

This free program also allows you to host voice and video conferences, with the latter mimicking the feeling of having a genuine face-to-face conversation. You can use this option to converse with clients, customers, and team members for online presentations and confidential meetings. Moreover, it can also be used as an online teaching platform where teachers can give lectures and students can use the hand-raise and chat feature to ask questions.

If you’re looking for a way to unify your team’s files, chats, and calls, you can utilize the app’s enterprise address book to import the team’s organizational structure. Plus, it offers a smart office application that deals with team attendance, check-in, leaves, announcements, and more. However, it’s important to note that the app’s login and logout feature tends to glitch, so you must punch in multiple times to successfully log your attendance.

It’s a great tool for employees working on a remote setup because it can streamline the entire workflow without decreasing productivity. The only small hiccup is that you have to punch in several times before it registers your attendance.
