Naver Works Surpasses 250,000 Global Customers... 5 Consecutive Years No.1 in Japan View original image


Naver Cloud's business collaboration tool, 'Naver Works,' has surpassed 250,000 global customers. Naver Works has held the number one market share in Japan for five consecutive years.


On the 12th, Naver Cloud announced, citing a survey by Fuji Chimera Research Institute, that Naver Works (known as Line Works in Japan) recorded a 33.6% sales market share in Japan, maintaining the top position for five consecutive years. The sales market share increased by 3% compared to the previous year.


Naver Works is popular because it is easy to use, similar to Japan's national messenger 'Line,' and highly compatible with Line. Last year, due to the spread of non-face-to-face work methods influenced by COVID-19, the number of new corporate customers increased. Existing corporate customers also expanded usage through company-wide adoption, driving sales.


In Japan, Naver Works is widely used in the financial and medical sectors. The Chiba University School of Medicine Hospital in Chiba Prefecture introduced Naver Works to quickly share and respond to emergency situations with relevant personnel on-site. After COVID-19, they utilized Naver Works' Bot function to monitor the progress of COVID-19 vaccinations for approximately 2,500 employees.


The number of global customers is also showing a steep growth curve. The number of customers, which was 100,000 last year, surpassed 200,000 in the first quarter of this year and increased to 250,000 as of the third quarter.


Amid this growth, Naver Works is enhancing features such as video calls and surveys and strengthening integration with industry-specific tools. There are over 110 tools compatible with Naver Works. Recently, with the V3.2 regular update, about 60 functions were improved, further expanding support for remote work. Additionally, Naver Cloud launched the 'Naver Cloud for Smart Work' vertical solution, which integrates Naver Works with the corporate information and management system 'Workplace' and the enterprise file-sharing specialized service 'Workbox' into one.



A Naver Cloud official stated, "We plan to continuously strengthen differentiated services and solidify our unique competitive advantage."
