Overall Satisfaction with Groove

In my department, we provide operational support for Admissions and Student Success teams. They use Groove to schedule meetings, track email open rates or click rates and connect that information directly into Salesforce Records. Groove allows us to log email communication and threads with our clients and improve contact rates for them. Before groove, we were using another product for clients to schedule events on calendars, this software didn't allow the flexibility that Groove does in setting different meetings types, lengths, and descriptions. That has been the biggest pro of using Groove for our department.
  • Contact and Outreach Tracking with Clients
  • Calendar Scheduling and Tracking Events
  • Click rates and Open rates on email communication
  • We would love to have a feature that allows users to be connected across Salesforce instances and have multiple email aliases associated with one Groove account.
  • Email Tracking
  • Calendar Functionality
  • Connection to CRM system
  • Groove has increased productivity of employees
  • Groove has increased NPS (net promoter scores) from clients as outreach is increased
Its very user friendly and support is always available to help

Yes

Salesforce CMS, Tableau Server, Jira Service Management (Jira Service Desk)
We love most of the features from Groove that we have access to like email response tracking, connections to Salesforce records and our CRM system, calendar functionality, etc. The one thing we do not like as we expand across different programs is the inability to have more than one calendar or more than one email alias attached to a singular Groove account. This has become a larger issue for our department over the past year or so.

Evaluating Groove and Competitors

Yes - Coconut Calendar, we wanted to replace with Groove because coconut didn't connect well with email tracking. Groove tracked metrics a lot more substantially than Coconut did. Additionally, Groove was a better deal with support for integration with Salesforce.
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
Definitely product features and usability. The student engagement department would be using the feature to track all communication and metrics moving forward. We needed accurate tracking for promotions and student outreach needs.
If I were to do it again I would look more at price, but it was worth the price and switching costs.
