GroupMe Review
I love that many people can join a conversation on GroupMe. I am able to see the conversation that my colleagues are having to improve or community expectations.
CONSI dislike that GroupMe notifies the people in the group about everything. If you change your picture, it will notify the group. If you delete a message, it will also notify the group.

GroupMe for team communication
Group Me has been super smooth. All the parents quickly get use to the functionality and communicate effectively during the season.
PROSHaving every parents picture and name is so much smoother than a group text with random numbers in it.
CONSThe web based app doesn’t always work when adding numbers. Copying and pasting numbers from a list to the app is cumbersome.
Reason for choosing GroupMe
Group Me was more commonly used. Better dialogue between parents.
Reasons for switching to GroupMe

GroupMe, a good option for team communication
The interface is very intuitive and generally easy to navigate. Keeping things sorted and organized is great.
CONSBattery usage management could be better, but it's not impactful enough to reduce my opinion of the software.

GroupMe Is Fine for Individual Use, but Not Business Use
Some good features, but overall not the best solution to group text management and communications.
PROSGroupMe does have some decent features. It allows you to connect with people using wifi instead of data, and you can include those who don't have the app in chats, and they will still get SMS messages, unlike some other applications that exclude outside users. You can add people based on email or phone number to invite them to chats.
CONSThere is little to no moderation. From a business aspect, we initially used GroupMe to try and unify a work chat for important announcements, communication, etc. However, we quickly found that, without an admin feature, chats would get bogged down, important communications would get lost in the general shuffle, and documents would get missed with the overwhelming amount of messages. There were no pinning feature, no admin moderation options, etc. And there isn't a desktop version to be used in the office setting. Overall I am sure it's a decent app for individuals who are looking for an alternative to a limited texting plan, but not well suited for business uses.
Reasons for switching to GroupMe
We switched from GroupMe to Telegram, as Telegram's software is much more conducive to a workplace environment, and they offer a ton of additional features to help moderate and keep important announcements fresh and pinned in conversations.

Workplace chat
Well it's gonna be a lot easier then having to run back and forth to the office or no need to write it down and have to wait for a response and it is perfect for the work place no waiting for service on messages it's instant and everyone can follow everything like they was standing next to you
PROSI like how I can report in my area everything and they will not have to worry about what place I'm reporting about also u can group chat with coworkers and yet then with just one certain one also when I report the person is able to comment or like it to let me know that is what information they was needing. Gonna be convenient for when there not around and they need to know very important information won't forget just opem the chat and let them know asap
CONSHaven't experienced anything I don't like about the app it's very useful
