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.

I 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.

Group Me has been super smooth. All the parents quickly get use to the functionality and communicate effectively during the season.

Having every parents picture and name is so much smoother than a group text with random numbers in it.

The web based app doesn’t always work when adding numbers. Copying and pasting numbers from a list to the app is cumbersome.

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

I 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

Haven't experienced anything I don't like about the app it's very useful

Some good features, but overall not the best solution to group text management and communications.

GroupMe 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.

There 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.

We were blessed to come across GroupMe for our business. We can update techs and crewmembers while they are onsite without having to call and interrupt what they are doing to get them the needed info. We send it through GroupMe and everyone in the group sees it!

Ease of use! You literally add a contact, they accept the invite and you are all set to communicate with everyone that is in the group! That simple!

I don't think there are any features that I don't like about this product. It is very user friendly and works like a dream.

My overall experience with this app was, alright at best. I was glad to move up to using another messaging software for my team. I will say this was great in a pinch when we needed to have coordinated messaging during an event. Other than that not that great.

It works fine if you are strictly using it as a centralized messaging app for a small team.

It does not do well on all types of phones. There is an issue with bugs, lagging, and crashing. It cannot handle conference voice or the sending of pictures. Also, it is very difficult to get help from support.

For the most part, I liked it. We used it to collaborate with our team. Send group communication.

What I enjoyed most about it was being able to collaborate with my team and 1 off message people. You can tag specific people in the group if you are talking directly to someone but within the group. You can also react to others messages.

GroupMe tends to notify you a lot, but that could go either way. If you don’t like this function, just silence your notifications. I’m not sure if GroupMe still does this, but if you did not reply within a certain period of time or a certain number of messages you got kicked out of the group. If this is still a feature that Brittany has, it might be a good idea to change it.

It's been good but would love to see more features.

GroupMe was the most universal app for messaging across different phones. It allowed us to invite all sorts of people and create many different groups. It's easy to set up and add people.

It doesn't have many features. You can't remove messages, edit very well, and long conversations can make some comments get lost in the shuffle. Although there isn't too many other options that are as universal.

GroupMe was fine, I’ve used it in several different employment/group scenarios and it’s been helpful. Personally I prefer Slack, but GM was a fine alternative.

I appreciated the ability to send and receive real-time updates on work matters right to my smartphone

I disliked the ability for any of the coworkers to post in our channel. There may have been a setting that wasn’t applied, but my biggest pet level was receiving 74 notifications of employees wishing someone a happy birthday from a work channel.

GroupMe is a great source of communication for our workplace.

Sometimes the individual chats will not work.

We’ve used GroupMe for years for communication within our team, which fluctuates in size between about 20-30 people. Again, it’s really quite simple to use, almost anyone can learn it, and it’s a great way to push out announcements, events, promotions, etc to the entire team at once. I like that groups can be silenced, so you don’t keep receiving notifications from groups with tons of people in it, but it can still remain in your list of chats so you can check it as much or as little as you’d like.

What I liked most was that it works well for what it was intended for. Once it’s installed and you have your profile, it is incredibly easy to start a direct or group chat. You can also search for chats, or be invited. It is very simple to use for group or team communication.

Sometimes inviting people to group chats become a bit of a struggle, mostly when they have never used or installed the app before. For some reason there were times when I’d invite someone via text or other means, and the person would download the app and create a profile, but couldn’t find or join the chat. We always got it figured out, but it just seems like that process should be smoother.

I do like that I can use the app or pull it up on the computer for whichever is easier for me. I use it both personally and with my students. Always easy to add or delete people from a chat I start.

This software allows me to get my students' phone numbers and communicate with all of them without them having my personal phone number. I can keep in touch with all of them without the hassles of differences in phone manufacturers. It also stores photos, so I can go back and get them later.

Sometimes the notifications turn off without me knowing it and I've missed a few messages that way. Doesn't allow for video chats, so I have to use another app for that.

Great group messaging app, very nice looking, no bugs or glitches

Not really anything not sure why more people don’t use this!

GroupMe is very useful for team members collaboration where we can send messages and announcements to the whole team with an instant message/chat. The team members can also respond and communicate in replying to the group chat.

Instant chat to the group of people and friends for collaboration are easy to use and can send pictures or videos to the group chat.

notification that the message/chat is delivered or has been read by the group members can be improved so that we know if one of the member in the group did not read the chat message .

Overall, I would say it’s been somewhat of a pleasant experience, but I will say that if I had the opportunity to use a different system, I would

I what I like most about GroupMe is it does what it’s supposed to do. It’s simple easy to use and most importantly free.

What I like least about groupme is sometimes when someone is sending you a message, It takes a really long time to get a notification about it.

Overall, I appreciate the function of being able to rally my entire staff in once chat room on my mobile device. I like that others can chime in and communicate. I overall love the fact that people can "like" a comment in order to show they have read a comment - keeps things accountable.

I love that I can set up many chats amongst different departments at my workplace. I like that I can identify when someone has read my comment, as they "heart" or "like" my comment. I appreciate the ability to silence the app so that I am not disturbed by chatter in the chats if I do not want to be.

I do not like how challenging it can be to get people added to chats. In some cases if a phone number was used for a previous chat group the system seems to have issues with allowing them to be re-added to the group. I found the "on boarding" process to be laborious.

GroupMe worked great for distance learning and communicating in real time with all staff.

GroupMe was easy to use and convenient to have the entire staff utilize.

Notifications would not always clear after viewing them.

Overall I love it. It’s simple, easy to use and I use it for many things.

I love that I can use groupme for multiple different purposes and that it’s separate from just simply texting someone. It helps me keep categories separated for work and even budgeting with my spouse.

Sometimes there are glitches that cause messages not to send but overall it’s been good.

I really like that Groupme is easy and simple to use and a great way to keep our team in contact with each other. It is a great platform to connect everyone and chat between each other.

One area that could be improved was adding new people to a group. Also not requiring people to post something in the group before they are removed.

Not very happy, it is a good product, but there are too many bugs and constantly have to reinstall when adding people. This has happened to many of us. Having to reinstall an app to be able tp connect with someone is not a good experience.

That you are allowed to communicate fast with a group.

That it is not user friendly very difficult to set up and create or edit groups. It is a real pain.

Overall this is my go to group chat app and the app i recommend for everyone!

My favorite part about the app, is there anybody can join but if they have an iPhone or an android phone!

Sometimes signing up and joining a group chat didn’t always go smoothly.

Good software app for smaller groups

Our kids school used it to share pictures of what was done in class

Not having a place to store pictures within the app, can get a little hard not to miss messages when there are lots of people in one group

I use GroupMe on a daily basis and find it to work great for what I need.

What Iike the most is how easy it is to message large groups at one time.

What I like the least is how difficult it is to leave a group once the reason I joined it is over.

Overall, great experience with GroupMe. Worked for what we were looking to do from a communication standpoint with our sales team

Real-time notifications is a great feature to use in group chats that are made for sales teams. Helps spark competitive environment

I'd prefer higher restriction controls for the group chats

the best part of groupme was that it was free compared to other team chat apps. However, it didn't have any other features to manage my business like task management, work order tracking, and scheduling

Customer support was almost non existent which made sense since this was a free app.
