Teams contribute ideas simultaneously in a shared workspace, then group, discuss, vote, and prioritize them in a structured way — reducing meeting time, encouraging equal participation, and leading to clearer outcomes. A customizable workflow lets facilitators build their own process from 11 step types, including brainstorm, group, rate, vote, position, action, and survey. Anonymity controls and multiple voting styles keep decisions transparent and inclusive. Built-in AI grouping organizes large volumes of ideas into themes, and an AI co-facilitator can summarise sessions and recommend next actions. Results are captured in real time and export instantly to PDF, CSV, or Excel. With 80+ templates across retrospectives, strategy, planning, and icebreakers, GroupMap works for groups of 2 to 2000 — in-person, hybrid, or remote.

Licensing options are limited for enterprise environment ----- ### "Group Map has changed how I facilitate strategic visioning." — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 June 2018* | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The software is easy to access and use but even the least technologically advanced. After they have completed their work, generating a report is as easy as pushing a button. > > **Cons**: For those accessing the software on handheld devices, a brainstorm once developed is hard to track and read. I will often want to use these for subsequent activities and am thwarted by how the program displays. ----- ### "The best group process support tool in the market today" — 5.0/5 > **Paul** | *7 January 2017* | Human Resources | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It includes a comprehensive number of templates that I have not seen in any other product at this price range and the simplicity in the use is amazing. > > **Cons**: For remote meetings, you still need to use an audio or video conference platform because GroupMap does not include voice or video support. > > And I have reviewed and used a number of them. As a GDSS expert, I can say that GroupMap is the most brilliantly designed piece of software it has all the features a group facilitator might need to transform our flipchart methods in the digital world. Participants can access meetings with any mobile device including the facilitator. Yes, you can run a GroupMap meeting from your mobile device. This product also includes a vast number of templates that you can start to use right out of the box. Besides you also can choose from a number of ready-made canvas that can make your work to invent your own processes much easier. To be honest, it is difficult to find a "minus" in GroupMap, I would have to think hard to write about anything that needs improvement. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/269221/groupmap?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.uk/software/269221/groupmap) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
