### "Groove helps us to improve our service to employees and clients"

August 29, 2024

5.0

It helps us to have an overview of all communications with employees and clients and make it easy to assign communication or tasks to different departments or persons.

Pros

We like groove because everybody in the team has access to the shared mailbox, but only the tickets who needs attention. In compare with a shared mailbox, or shared e-mail address where you have to read all e-mails, is in groove only visible what needs to be done. The groove team is continuously improving the systems and in case of questions their support team is really helpful.

Cons

It miss sometimes some functions you are used to have from your e-mail program. However, it brings you to rethink your work progress, or in case it's really important you can contact Groove and they are always open to help you.

Shared mailboxes in outlook are not a good option to have a good overview of open tickets. Groove makes this overview much better for us.

### "Not nearly as efficient as Outreach"

February 16, 2021

2.0

I am sending prospecting emails to break into new accounts and reach new customers. It helps me to have tracked tasks and efficient email and call outreach day in and day out.

Pros

I do like that I can organize the order of the people I'm reaching out to in my flows. There are a few really good things about Groove from a flow building and Salesforce data retention front that are helpful.

Cons

Coming from Outreach, Groove isn't nearly as powerful or easy to use. There are so many things I preferred to do in Outreach that I can't do in Groove. Outreach's bulk import, the quick way to search for contacts that had been contacted just by searching the domain, looking at past email conversations, and better insight into email engagement are all things I had in Outreach that are glaringly missing from Groove. Groove feels clunky to me in how it interacts with my Gmail/Calendar and it's felt like more of an obstacle than an enabling software.

### "Great solution"

August 8, 2024

5.0

Pros

What I liked most about GrooveHQ is its seamless integration of artificial intelligence, which has drastically improved our response times and accuracy. The centralized ticket management system ensures no request gets lost, and the overall organization of emails has streamlined our communication processes. Additionally, the support team is incredibly responsive, and the pricing is unbeatable for the value it provides. This combination of features has truly optimized our customer service operations.

Cons

While GrooveHQ is overall an excellent tool, one downside is that the initial setup and customization can be somewhat time-consuming. It took us a bit of time to fully configure the system to meet our specific needs. But we switch from solution used since 8 years

Price and really bad support service. Our cost become expensiv without any awesome new function.

October 13, 2021

May 29, 2025

4.0

Pros

Sleek UI, and the fact that Groove has a knowledge base that you can publish to users is a really nice bonus.

Cons

Groove is a little on the expensive side; in the world of AI, we found we didn't need all of the extra features that came with a bigger price tag.

It has been easy to transition over from Gmail. I like the email templates you are able to set up for quick responses.

To be able to work as a team and be able to jump in and help out if they are out.

Overall, I think that it has been a good tool for our team.

I personally like Groove and it is very user friendly, I have always been an outlook user but the transition was easy.

Pros

The read confirmation function and the post it notes - helps us communicate internally without the client seeing.

5.0

Pros

Groove HQ is designed with simplicity in mind, making it easy for teams to onboard and use without extensive training.

### "Groove Email Software + Knowledge Base "

February 27, 2019

5.0

The ability to add notes, tags, snooze conversations, and create rules and folders has made my emails more organized than ever before. Managing 9 accounts used to be daunting and virtually impossible - and it had a negative impact on our customers because I would be too overwhelmed to respond and sort through my emails. Conversations would be forgotten, lost, or delayed. Now, I can power through emails with significantly less frustration and time, which has allowed me to focus my time and attention on other projects. This is further aided by our Knowledge Base, which has helped so many customers be more self-sufficient and find detailed answers to their questions without having to email staff and cut in to our already jam-packed schedules. Groove has helped us turn one of our most tedious and time consuming major project into a streamlined, easy to manage task.

Pros

In terms of the Email Software: You can have multiple inboxes in one single account, which is just absolutely amazing. You have the option of viewing emails as separate inboxes/categories (within the same homepage), or listing them as one streamlined inbox. The latter has boosted my email productivity significantly across multiple work emails, freelance emails, and personal emails. In terms of the Knowledge Base: It is so simple to add an article and organize it accordingly! It's super user-friendly and easy to navigate. Set up is easy. If you don't have coding experience, there's nothing to worry about! The software is intuitive and you won't need any coding at all. For those of us that have dabbled with coding—well, it's incredibly refreshing to not worry about fumbling with the bells and whistles to create something easy to navigate, sleek, and stylish. Less time focusing on the "busy" work, more time focusing on what's important: the content.

Cons

The ability to log phone calls through Groove has be revolutionary to me. It's changed the way I work. However, the functionality of logging phone calls is a bit behind all other features of Groove; it still needs some work. But, considering that's the only downside (and, admittedly, not a huge deal), it's definitely not something to worry about or a deciding factor.

Hi Mayra, thanks for taking the time to leave us such a detailed review on Capterra. Your feedback is very valuable and I was wondering if you would be potentially interested in publishing a customer story with Groove on our website?

### "Go Groove!"

February 13, 2024

4.0

Overall, Groove has been pleasant and has accomplished our main goal of gaining visibility into the requests coming to our team and allowing members to assist in the event someone is out of the office.

Pros

Groove has been a game changer for our Finance team! It has allowed us to successfully gain visibility into the various requests from our customers and is playing a huge role in team members being able to support each other more effectively! Even though we aren't using the platform in it's true intent of a "ticketing" like system. It has still managed to help us with our number one priority of allowing our team to fully support each other without having to create and manage several shared mailboxes in Outlook. The Groove support team has been helpful when needed. Overall, we would recommend this platform to other businesses.

Cons

Groove lacks the capacity to export the data analytics provided in the report’s dashboard. This would be SUPER beneficial going forward!

### "Groove Works, It's Easy to Use, and I LOVE IT!"

February 26, 2019

5.0

I use Groove integrated with Wordpress on several sites, live chat with Olark, Slack and my favorite is capturing social media all in one place. The tight integration between the knowledge base feature and the ticketing system is also a favorite of mine. They've taken the complexity of other systems out and left in all the features. I have tried them all, and as a consultant at 74 Systems helping accounting and other professional services companies with marketing, technology, workflow and automation, I've recommended and implemented the other "big industry names" in many different circumstances. Not anymore! Since I've been a Groove user, I've never had to look elsewhere and my time to delivery is a fraction of what it once was and my clients LOVE the simplicity and power of the product. Win, win, win.

Pros

Groove is really easy to use and does the job that far more complex systems do, better. It really makes the process of building and managing a ticketing system and a knowledge base easy. The integrations with Wordpress are really slick and the add on integrations with Slack and live chat support are just awesome. It's the ideal blend of performance, capability, integration, and function. It just works and it's a pleasure to use.

Cons

Mobile can be a bit challenging but it's gotten better over time.

### "Great for multiple projects"

February 27, 2019

5.0

Pros

The ability to support multiple projects within the same subscriptions is great. Since the recent revamp, the only thing that didn't support multiple projects, the knowledge base, now supports this. We manage a few completely different projects so its great that they are all supported under the same account.

Cons

Since the revamp, not much... I wish the small side navigation menu had a pull out version that actually had text for the navigation... on a large monitor i don't need to save the screen real estate and the icons are not the most intuitive. Not sure if there are hover over tool tips but if there are they don't seem to work for me so I find myself clicking through a few icons until I find what I want. If I was being really picky, a mobile app for the inbox would be useful so I can respond to questions even if Im out and about, but it isn't a deal-breaker for us.

February 28, 2019

Hi Mark, thanks for your feedback! We are happy that Groove helps you to work with multiple projects. Regarding the icons, we have recently added a tooltip text. If you mouse over any of the icons now, you should be able to see it. We hope that it will help to resolve some of the confusion. For the mobile app, this is already on our roadmap and will be coming later this year. Cheers, Agata from Groove

### "The most powerful communication software I know"

June 15, 2022

5.0

Pros

I absolutely love the broad automation functions of Groove that optimise all of my outbound communication and the tracking behind it. In my opinion Groove the most important software beneath Salesforce for any sales professional. It safes time, brings efficiency and transparence to my daily worklife. Especially the tracking of my own sales activities tackles a big pain of mine.

Cons

There is actually no weakness of this software. I really like and use many of Grooves functions.

Their support is AMAZING. They always respond quickly and friendly. Problems are quickly fixed. Suggestions are always considered. I often receive updates on my feature requests.

Pros

Groove is great value for money. Functionality is updated all the time. The new 2.0 software looks awesome and is easy to use.

Cons

It's still a bit limited in functionality, but that's nitpicking.

September 18, 2017

This product on a daily bases has helped me organize the request that come into our department, respond, and delegate them. I love this product.

Pros

I love this software because the ease of use and how helpful it is. We wanted to gather some analytics on how many request we get. This is the perfect product to use. It also helps use keep organize and able to assign different tasks to different people. Live changer.

January 10, 2017

5.0

We've been using Groove for 2 years, and it has never disappointed. From answering our very first customer support questions before our product launched, to a full team of 8 reps actively using, it has all of the features and simplicity to meet you wherever your organization is.

Pros

The company lives and breathes customer support. You can see it in their product, but the blog and product support are amazing extensions.

Cons

No mobile app yet..

### "Simple ticket management & knowledge base"

May 4, 2018

4.0

Pros

As a very small team that didn't need tons of bells and whistles, Groove is a great way to manage support tickets and a knowledge base. It's easy for team members to assign/collaborate on tickets, leave notes for other agents or for their own internal reference, merge multiple tickets, tag tickets, etc. Customer service is very good -- they're quick to respond and very friendly.

Cons

The reporting is not as robust as more expensive competitors, though this should be expected at the price range. This might have only been a minor use case issue for us, but we didn't like that we couldn't send internal emails from one Groove mailbox to another. Also, you need another email address or integration with something like Slack to be notified when you're tagged in a note.

April 22, 2019

Pros

### "Excellent Product If You Love Gmail"

June 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

Groove made life a whole lot easier with their functionality of staying inside of Gmail while being able to use and operate their tool. You don't have to jump from tab to tab, but can rather stay in one spot and get everything that you need to done.

Cons

Outside of Gmail, it's a little tricky to navigate and still get what you need to done. If they could bring the ease of use that they have inside of Gmail, outside of Gmail, this would be the best tool ever. They are too Gmail specific.

June 7, 2017

4.0

Pros

The email integration is perfect and it's fairly simple to get used to. The ability to create different templates to use is a huge time-saver.

Cons

The edit field for emails is pretty wonky and can get frustrating if you like to write and then go back to edit. Otherwise great.
