Group Collaboration based on Location, Topic or Interest

Groups For Teams and Common Interests

MangoApps groups provide easy to use channels for employees to communicate based on office locations, common interests, departments or goals. With different group categories, each containing a multitude of social features, businesses have more ways to tap into employee knowledge, expertise, and ideas.

Create Groups With Ease

Using the simple group creation wizard, users and admins can create new groups with ease. Desired feature modules are then enabled, permissions are configured, and co-workers are invited to join.

Connect With Active Directory Or LDAP Groups

Keep AD/LDAP groups and membership in sync with MangoApps. Filters allow sync of only subsets of Active Directory groups as needed. Admins can also choose to map specific attributes to MangoApps group custom fields to ensure that only the information that matters is visible in MangoApps.

Engage In Actionable Conversations

Group members share updates and posts, ask questions, gather feedback with polls recognize each others efforts and accomplishments, and more. All of these activities help to keep the group up to date on the latest employee discussions and resources.

Skip The Formalities Of Meetings and Collaborate

Ask questions, brainstorm, and work together to make decisions. Groups let users hash out things fast without the hassle of meetings, or the pain of disjointed email strings and conference calls.

Folders To Keep Group Files Organized

It is simple to securely share files and folders inside a group. Users simply drag and drop files into the group folder to upload them. Default permissions can be set to limit the visibility and audience of the files to members only, non-members on specific folders, or open to the whole company.

Group Calendar

Plan and communicate on events, group meetings, trainings, and more. Group calendar events layer seamlessly onto user’s MangoApps calendar as well, making sure they never miss a beat.

Track Requests and Submissions

Groups include trackers that make coordination and tracking any list of requests or submissions easy. No more version control or lost emails, just consistent status and management of all types of group requests.

Group Chat and Huddle

Accelerate discussions and consensus with group chat and huddle. This creates a great experience for online meetings, getting a question answered quickly, quick informal check-ins, or to work through anything with the team that needs immediate response.

Easily Promote and Invite New Members

With quick access, users have an automatically created quick list of recent and commonly used items through MangoApps. By default, the list is ordered by most recently accessed content along with purposely pinned items including posts, pages, wikis, team spaces, files, hashtags, and more.

Add Users To Multiple Groups and Projects

Domain admins have the ability to select a list of users from the admin portal and add them to multiple groups and/or projects all in one action. All public and private groups and projects are visible when carrying out this action, and users are notified based on their settings.

Find Anything With Advanced Search and Filters

Search and locate anything you need inside a team space. A simple search using the search box at the top of the team space will deeply search and yield appropriate results. To narrow down the scope, advanced search filters make it easy to perform powerful searches on the content inside the team. These filters include searching by user, date, hashtags, and team or domain-specific custom fields.

Get To Know New Members

A widget in the right panel of the page’s news feed shows the members who have joined the team in the last 90 days. The 5 most recent members will be listed with their join date, with the option to view all members in the team.

Additional Groups Features

Private, Public, and Unlisted Groups

When creating or editing a group, the permission level can be set to Public, Private, or Unlisted. Public means anyone with access can join the group, or simply participate and view the feed passively. Private groups require membership to view messages or participate, while an unlisted group is an invisible space only accessible to its creator and invited members making it perfect for anything under wraps.

Enhanced Group Organization

When viewing the groups lists, see descriptive information regarding the groups purpose or content based on its description, owner, last date of activity or creation date, and custom fields. Users can opt to sort groups into a list or grid view, or re-order the sorting based on name or last activity.

Export Group Data

Administrators can export all group data, making it a useful way to share group content and collaboration history externally or when to archive the data offline

Integrate Data From Third-Party Systems

Connect MangoApps to all the tools the business uses to avoid the constant switching between apps. Support requests, code check-ins, error logs, sales leads, get them all in one central and searchable location.

Transfer Ownership Or Archive Groups

As a domain admin there is full control over all public and private groups in MangoApps. They can transfer group ownership rights as needed when roles change, or someone leaves the company. If a group is no longer needed but the data may be needed in the future, unused groups can be archived to hide them from view but retain them for future access.

Mention Other Groups Or Non-Members

When it is necessary to involve multiple teams into a discussion, yet keep a single conversation thread, @mentions of other teams or non-members is the way to do it. Collect feedback from marketing or sales departments about a new logo design, or make sure different project teams are always in the loop about upcoming events.

Make New Members Directly Admins

When adding new members to the group or project, MangoApps allows an action to directly add new members as team admins- saving a further step.
