What it does
WeCom is Tencent’s enterprise communication service. Its product pages describe manageable group chats of up to 2,000 members, message exchange with WeChat, video meetings, company contacts, and office tools such as attendance and approvals. The official registration guide says the core service is available for free, while company verification and some advanced features or services may carry charges.
A company can use WeCom group chats for internal coordination and connect with WeChat users for external conversations, while keeping employee contacts and office tools such as attendance and approvals in the same service. The official product site also lists video meetings and free storage. This makes WeCom more of an enterprise communication workspace than a chat-only tool. Tencent’s registration help page says the service is free but identifies a company verification fee of 300 CNY or more and optional fees for advanced features; teams should check the terms for their account and region. No WeCom account or group was created.
