Hello, 

Can Trello be used in China? I know the company. Trello, allows to use Trello platform in China. However, the Chinese government might not allow it. Does anyonbe know?

Also, can Trello be integrated with Teams?

Hi @Soren Lund 👋

Welcome to the Community! It's a good question and I have known users to be able to access Trello in China. It may come down to the individual company and their firewalls / restrictions. 

Keeping this in mind, if you run into any issues, I'd recommend sharing a few of Trello's help documents with your team members:

• https://help.trello.com/article/1072-configuring-your-firewall-for-trello
• https://help.trello.com/article/771-loading-resources-from-trellos-cdn

This should help them verify if Trello resources are possibly being blocked at the network level. If you have further issues I would reach out to Trello support. 

I hope this helps but if you have any further questions please just shout 😃

All the best,

Laura

Appreciate the answer, Laura. 

How about integrating Trello with Teams?

It was a few years ago now I worked with a Chinese manufacturer to make a order tracking system with Trello.  Trello worked absolutely fine but also by my last account, Teams/Skype/Whatsapp and Google services were blocked.

A lot of Chinese companies (and people) bypass this with VPN.  

Most Chinese business will use WeChat. It opened up a lot more opportunities in for sure.

Trello and Teams do have integration.  Keep expectations low though 😉
