# DingDing vs DingTalk

The clearest difference is rating: DingTalk at 2.4 against DingDing's 1.4. DingTalk also leads on ads (none vs shown). DingDing's advantage is ratings volume (13K vs 360). On price, review sentiment, update cadence and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. DingDing sells 31 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per month and DingTalk sells 4 in-app purchases, starting at $14.90 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
