OrgMapper, a powerful organizational mapping tool, has been widely adopted by large organizations to address various challenges and improve overall effectiveness. With its ability to identify and visualize networks and key relationships, OrgMapper has proven invaluable in change programs and incremental change initiatives. Users have found that the tool provides critical insights and facilitates communication, trust-building, culture development, succession planning strategies, and driving innovation. By visually representing relational strengths and weaknesses within intact teams, the tool offers valuable visualizations that not only highlight existing strengths but also reveal opportunities for improvement.
In addition to its application within organizations, OrgMapper has been successfully employed in workshops with client systems and the general public. These workshops serve as an introduction to the complexities of being effective in networks while equipping participants with tools to understand and take action within these networks. The results have been highly encouraging, with consultants using OrgMapper's empirical and visual evidence of network structures and qualities to engage and align stakeholders effectively, leading to a more comprehensive understanding of the true organizational landscape. This has proven particularly impactful in leadership team-building contexts where data on relational networks can be leveraged to identify strengths and areas for improvement.
Moreover, OrgMapper has found utility across a range of industries and settings. It has been applied in small enterprise settings as well as discreet departments within large government organizations. Consultants specializing in organizational diagnosis, departmental needs analysis, new product creation, launches, internal cooperation, communication structures have all found value in OrgMapper. By providing a tangible framework for collecting, analyzing, and mapping information pertaining to internal cooperation and communication structures, the tool has addressed critical issues related to knowledge management effectiveness and change management. Its versatility is further evidenced by its utilization by Better Change, an organizational transformation company specializing in network-based approaches to organizational development and change.

Critical and Compelling Tool: Users have found OrgMapper to be a critical and compelling tool that provides empirical and visual evidence of existing networks. Several reviewers have stated that the tool is invaluable in analyzing network relationships within organizations, allowing for more informed decision-making.
Variety of Modules: Many users appreciate the variety of modules offered by OrgMapper, which makes it easy to explain to clients and choose the most suitable module based on their requirements. This flexibility allows users to address specific issues with clients and tailor the analysis to their needs.
Outstanding Technical Analysis and Support: The Maven7 team's outstanding technical analysis and support has been highly praised by users. Reviewers mention having a great relationship with the team, appreciating their friendly and professional approach in resolving technical issues related to network science translation into practical usage.
Tightly Placed Rows: Some users have expressed concern about the tightly placed rows in the user interface, which creates a fear when using the drag and drop feature. They suggest that there should be more spacing between the rows to enhance ease of use and prevent accidental errors.
Difficulties with Mailing Surveys: Several reviewers encountered difficulties when mailing out surveys and allowing access via passwords. These issues were attributed to systemic email problems and software programming. The users recommend improving the email system integration and ensuring smooth functionality for survey distribution.
Limited Customization of Surveys: A common complaint among users is the inability to customize surveys by adding questions from other modules. This limitation restricts the flexibility of the software for gathering specific data. Users feel that having the ability to incorporate questions from different modules would greatly enhance their survey design capabilities.

OrgMapper Uncovers The Potential Of Networks
- OrgMapper uses appropriate questions to understand the different aspects of networks in organizations. These questions are conceptually sound and appropriate and diverse. They are easy to understand.
- There is a direct path from the survey to the visualization of data in network maps. Though having an official report is of great value, I rely on the ability of OrgMapper to translate raw data obtained via survey into actual maps potentially in real-time if needed.
- I appreciate the use of modules like Knowledge Mapper or Team Mapper which pull together questions to respond to particular issues in organizations. This makes marketing easier and facilitates the decision making process on the part of clients.
- I have found the technical support for OrgMapper to be helpful. I appreciate that the Maven 7 people like many of us users are all on a learning curve with regard to the translation of network science into practical usage. Thus, ongoing communication back and forth between we users and Maven 7 is helpful and important. I appreciate the inquisitive approach taken my Maven 7 and their dedication to resolve technical issues that arise.
- I encountered difficulty in emailing the OrgMapper survey out to a public group (not part of one organization). A good number of people did not receive the emails or were not able to access the survey via password. I gather the OrgMapper folks have been working to prevent this from happening in the future.
- OrgMapper is based on the assumption that people taking the survey are all part of one organization. Thus, it is possible to populate the software survey with specific names. But, what if the potential survey respondents are not part of a single organization? What if some possible network members are even unknown at the time of the administration of the survey or at least unknown to the administrators of the survey. Would it ever be possible for respondents to write in the names of other people and in doing so populate the survey with the names of these other people. Would this be practical?
- I really appreciate the thinking going on at Maven 7 with regard to offering a comprehensive, diagnostic survey in addition to the modularized approach. I would like to be using OrgMapper with regard to organization design which is a very comprehensive intervention. Having a survey which touches on many of the different areas relevant in organization design would be of great benefit.
- One business objective of mine is to be able to offer workshops on network effectiveness. OrgMapper is a very user-friendly, insightful and relevant way of demonstrating many network concepts through visualizing the reality in an existing organizational network. It also enables clients to arrive at useful insights about their organization. In this capacity, OrgMapper has been an important part of my workshops. I also hope it will become an important part of my delivery of consulting services to clients.
- I am hopeful that the use of OrgMapper will position me to provide greater value to clients.
- Using OrgMapper in workshops for clients and in public workshops on how the potential of networks and how to be effective in networks.
- Using OrgMapper as a diagnostic and planning tool for helping organizational networks make improvements.
- Using OrgMapper in associations and less formal networks to improve the potential of the network.
- Building OrgMapper into a workshop that helps individuals and members of existing networks to visualize the existence of themselves as a working network and to understand what improvements could be made to improve the effectiveness of their network.
- Visual Mapping
- Question selection
- Filtering and manipulating of visual maps
- Emailing survey to respondents
