Hancom Docs review
A broad office-format workspace for teams that need Korean and Office file compatibility.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Hancom Docs is a subscription-based office and document service from Hancom Inc. for individuals and organizations collaborating on Korean and Microsoft Office formats. It supports web editing for HWP, HWPX, XLS, XLSX, CELL, PPT, PPTX, SHOW, DOC, DOCX, and RTF files, alongside cloud storage, file management, sharing, and document search. Access spans web, Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android, while the free plan provides 2GB of storage and web and mobile Hancom Office access.
Its plan structure separates basic access from desktop editing, AI assistance, storage, and administration. Personal and Personal Annual provide 10GB of storage, Hancom Docs AI, and Windows and Mac Hancom Office; Personal also supports use on five computers simultaneously. Business and Business Annual provide 100GB per person, AI assistance, and organization management, while Business adds use on five computers per person simultaneously. The free tier includes Windows and Mac Hancom Office viewer access, making it suitable for viewing and lighter collaboration before a paid commitment.
Collaboration is a central strength: users can share files and folders through invitations or links, set viewing or editing permissions, access shared files without installing software, and work together in real time. Version tools allow documents to be viewed, restored, downloaded, and deleted, although version history is limited. Hancom Docs suits teams that need broad office-format support and cross-platform access, particularly when HWP compatibility matters. Organizations needing deeper version controls or documented offline access should consider an alternative with those priorities.
